minus-square@Trebuchet@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish5•9 months agoUsed to be able to do this before they made you consent to sharing your data for ad purposes. I use a chromecast and a NAS. No issues so far.
minus-square@Pretzilla@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish1•9 months agoCan Chromecast source NAS directly, or what’s required? Jellyfin or something? Thx
minus-square@Trebuchet@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglish3•9 months agoMy bad, i was unclear. I don’t think chromecast can source NAS. In my experience you can stream to chromecast via a device player, like VLC. WebOS can also play files direct from a NAS though, but that obviously involves downloading in full to the NAS before playing.
minus-square@pete_the_cat@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish2•9 months agoYou need an app on your phone that “flings” the content from the NAS, so a media server like Jellyfin.
minus-squarepanmeeklinkEnglish1•9 months agoI suppose it can source the NAS directly using something like DLNA protocol
