pycastr

Codacy Badge

Neat tool to cast your audio/video to kodi clients

Alt Text

Features

alt text Mirror your systems desktop on your TV

Usage

NOTE: Two dummy clients are added as examples in pycastr.py. Sometimes client discovery fails, if this happens, just add your clients in lines 45-48 in pycastr.py.

  • Select "Search clients" to update the list of available clients
  • Select a client from the list to start casting
  • Select this client again to stop casting
  • Choose "Screen mirroring" for video casting

Icons

The original icons used by pycastr may be found in Google's material design icon repository.
