Awesome

Proof of concept using python to talk to chromecast.

Uses google's protobuf library

Uses chromium's cast_channel.proto as seen at

http://svnsearch.org/svnsearch/repos/CHROMIUM/search?revision=227345&showPaths=all

Inspired by:

You can just use the cast_channel_pb2.py included here, or you can install google's protobuf processor from https://code.google.com/p/protobuf/

Dont forget to change the hard-coded IP to the IP of your cast device.

If you want to rebuild it, just run make


todo: integrate this with pychromecast
