0.1.6

• ffmpeg is now a supported backend. You can check how to use this backend
  by consulting python mkchromecast.py -h.
• The following codecs are supported:'mp3', 'ogg', 'aac', 'wav', 'flac'.
• Improved screen messages.
• Date format in changelog has been changed.

0.1.5

This version has the following improvements:

• If the application fails, the process that ensures streaming with node will kill all streaming servers created by mkchromecast.
• Now there is a systray menu that you can launch as follows:

python mkchromecast.py -t

To use it, you need to install PyQt5. In homebrew you can do it as shown below:

brew install pyqt5 --with-python

You can use the package manager of your preference. In a future release, a standalone application will be provided.

0.1.4

• Now you can pass arguments to mkchromecast. For more information:

  python mkchromecast -h.

• In this version you can choose devices from a list using:

  python mkchromecast -s.

• Some improvements to the messages printed on screen.

0.1.3

• Updated requirements.txt.
• Now some help can be shown.
• The code is now licensed under MIT. I think this license is simpler.

0.1.2

This new revision has the following improvements:

• mkchromecast has been ported to work with Python3. This is also possible because pychromecast works as well.
• The nodejs binary has been recompiled, and node_modules have been updated.
• The program seems to be more stable.

0.1.1

In this new version multithreading is dropped in favor of multiprocessing. This is to reconnect the streaming server easily. Killing processes is easier than killing threading it seems.

I strongly encourage you to upgrade to this version.

0.1.0

• In this beta release, the program casts to the first google cast found in the list.
• If the node streaming server fails, the program reconnects.
