Feature Proposal: Add Cast-Function

[SHU-red]

• Adding a cast-function to play music on cast-devices
• Keep option to still play music on PC even if music is parallely casted to cast-devices

Any reason why both requests are denied? It would be a great feature for those with multi-speaker groups to hear the song throughout their house. I've been using this more often on my phone, but when on my PC I'd rather control it from PC and not phone.

This is one big feature (or plugin if not natively enabled) for me.

@KensonPlayz Both requests were closed because they are "duplicates" of this request.

It looks like there was an implementation going on in #296, but it's not compatible now because the code has changed 99%

Ah ok. Not super familiar with this site, so I don't know its intricacies.

RIP. Hopefully it can be added as a plugin if it's not defaulted to on. I have a 3-speaker group so I can hear the songs thru entire apartment without fade-out.

Oh, that's sad, because I use a lot the cast for my Nest Audio

We are now working on this: https://github.com/th-ch/youtube-music/tree/feat/chromecast In this implementation, we aim to keep the original implementation (YouTube's implementation) as much as possible. However, several issues make it very difficult to implement.

• [ ] Electron does not support "cast prompt"
• [ ] Electron does not support "cast protocol" (chrome.cast) (partially implemented in a689980049db93167a9d48acf6e22235f3788fcb)
