Chromecast 2 device-desc.xml

[lcloki]

Hey folks.

I am developing an application to use the Chromecast with linux. I still supports the first one, but I also want to support the new Chromecast 2015.
For that I need the device-desc.xml of that one. For my self I just bought the Chromecast Audio. So, I am kind of relying on you guys.

You can get it via:
wget h**p://<chromecast-ip>:8008/ssdp/device-desc.xml

Since i am new i am not allowed to post links here. Its not even a valid link. Please replace the 2 asterisks with tt ...

Thank you very much. The device identifies it self as Eureka Dongle as the previous Chromecast did before. I would have expected that google changed the modelName to something else. Or at least increasing the version like.: Eureka Dongle 2 or something like that.

Interested in testing? I suppose you are using Linux ...

As soon as I get mine I will get back to you for testing In case you still need someone.

I'd be intetested in testing on linux (I'm using arch) if needed

It would be cool if you could test current master of h**ps://github.com/masmu/pulseaudio-dlna. There is an AUR for version 0.4.6 in case you have troubles installing the dependencies. But current master needs testing ...

Btw, do you guys also own a Nexus Player? I could really use the device description of that too.
