[APP] LocalCast - WebBrowser video parsing improved
- Thread starter dakdroid
- Start date
Typical weird bug, I don't think it's app specific. I sometimes have this issue too. Only the original chromecast supported apps recognizes the device. Usually restarting the chromecast fixes it.
Tried that but it hasn't helped. Allcast also won't find the chromecast. Very strange
Allcast only finds my CC 1 of 5 times. Well, reboot everything, factory reset cc and so on. Or just wait....
Thanks, I have donated now. So far it works well with my HTC one xl and generic android tablet. Even plays embedded videos in websites with ease and I struggled with some other apps similar to localcast, I can get rid of my 5m hdmi cable now.

Reboot both your Chromecast and your phone until it works. You can try to leave Localcast open for a while too, this sometimes helps.
Same problem here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=54185341&postcount=2
Have been using this to cast to my Chromecast for quite a while now, didn't have any issues. :good:
I am not really good at designing these things. If someone provides better wallpapers, I'll gladly use them. Easiest would be to replace the current 3 with 3 new ones.
I like the new look! But i'm sorry to say that the missing subtitles bug is still there. Every few minutes a pair of lines (always a pair of lines) are missig. Maybe in the next update.
Thanks for the great job, anyway!

A fix for the missing Chromecast icon bug is coming, hopefully soon:
Hi Everyone,
We've identified an issue and are working quickly towards a fix. The issue we've found is affecting all users on Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0 to 4.0.4) and you won't see the Cast icon when trying to Cast from apps other than Netflix and YouTube. If you are having this issue, we are aware of the it and will post here when a fix is available.
Thanks for your patience!

I somehow not able to make this work. Please help.!
I am using I9300 S3 phone and have Samsung Smart TV latest 2014 model.
I am able to successfully use AllCast app and play videos from phone to TV.
when I am using LocalCast, it searches the TV and shows that is connected but the play button on any media is not playing it and nothing happens..
Can anyone guide me on this?
Thank you very much.!

Seems like this is bugged. Unfortunately I don't know right now how I could debug this, because I don't have a smart TV. I'll try to provide a fix over the weekend.
thanks for quickest reply.
Let me know if any way I can help you providing more log and test your once you fix
Here is log to help...

multiple accounts
I have multiple Google accounts on my phone. I paid to remove adds under one account but the app is still displaying adds. When I go into remove adds now, it shows the other account. How do I get the app to check the right account?
Like the work on this so far! Would love to see a dark theme for the app.

This is unfortunately a pretty bad choice made by Google:
I can only get the purchases in the app for the primary account on the phone (the one you added first). I hope that they change this soon, but it seems the only solution is to remove all other accounts. Reboot your phone and then add back the others.
E.g.:

https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/android-developers/EbcAdThiIWc
I can cancel and refund the purchase, so you can purchase it on your primary account. You'd just need to forward me the purchase confirmation email from the Playstore to dakdroid@gmail.com. I need the number in there.

XDA beta only apk download: http://goo.gl/lwOzgz
Changelog:
- Image streaming added (bug: reports format not supported, but displays image)
- Music streaming added
- Folder navigation added
- UI beautified
- couple of bugs added... I am aware of these and will fix them, please no bug reports for this version.
Displaying one image and listening to one song at a time, kinda makes no sense, so I will add a 'diashow' and 'playlist/queue'.
As mentioned before: for music streaming, keep an eye on my other app: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2545818
Chromecast support is almost done, there.
If streaming is slow/stuttering/always buffering:
Please check your WLAN connection...4
To be honest, I didn't look into what actually works (YET) or what doesn't and I don't check that before sending it to the Chromecast.
Everything which is recognized by Android as video, will be displayed in the list and you can try to send it.
The possibility to support more formats is there, but requires additional coding, which will take a while.
1+2: soon. 3 yes but no ETA
yes
