Implements a few Google Chromecast commands. Other than the basic commands, it also allows you to play media files from your computer.

Can load a local media file or a file hosted on the internet on your chromecast with the following format:

Supported Media formats:
    - MP3
    - AVI
    - MKV
    - MP4
    - WebM
    - FLAC
    - WAV

If an unknown video file is found, it will use ffmpeg to transcode it to MP4 and stream it to the chromecast.

We are able to play local media files by creating a http server that will stream the media file to the cast device.

A DNS multicast is used to determine the Chromecast and Google Home devices.

The cast DNS entry is also cached, this means that if you pass through the device name, -n <name>, or the device uuid, -u <uuid>, the results will be cached and it will connect to the chromecast device instantly.
