  Description     : a GUI for casting local files to Chromecast devices - supports MKV, subtitles, 5.1 sound and 4K

This is a native Linux GUI for casting local files to Chromecast devices. It supports:

  *   Both audio and video files (anything ffmpeg can read)
  *   Realtime transcoding (only when needed)
  *   Subtitles (embedded and external SRT files)
  *   Fast scrubbing (waiting 20s for buffering to skip 30s ahead is wrong!)4K videos on the Chromecast Ultra
