With this software you can turn a Linux device (e.g. Raspberry Pi) into a device that can be used by Desktop Audio Streamer to play audio. I've tested on a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Rev 1.1 with Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster).
- Download the ChromeCast.Device file from releases
- Copy the file to your Linux device
- Change permission:
chmod 777 ChromeCast.Device - Execute:
./ChromeCast.Device -l -n MyDeviceName - Use Desktop Audio Streamer on a Windows device to start streaming.
The command-line arguments:
-lfor logging-n DeviceNamefor the name of the device
Chromecast.Device uses these Linux applications, so make sure they are installed:
- vlc/cvlc to start an audio stream:
cvlc <url> - pkill to stop an audio stream:
pkill vlc - amixer for the volume:
amixer get Master playbackto get the levelamixer set Master <level (0-65536)>to set the levelamixer -q sset Master toggleto toggle mute
