Enhancement: Ability to set a default Receiver #167

We want to create a screensaver type application that would start every time 
the Chromecast boots. This issue was suggested before 
(https://code.google.com/p/google-cast-sdk/issues/detail?id=62https://code.googl
e.com/p/google-cast-sdk/issues/detail?id=62) but the issue was closed without 
any real solution. Does this feature exist already or is this not supported by 
the SDK yet?

I am interested in this as well. Also does Chromecast support persistent 
storage on the device, such as HTML5 LocalStorage?

We do not support that scenario and if you read the Terms of Service at 
https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/terms, you will see the following item 
there:

3.4.8   must not automatically cast content. Content should only be cast in 
response to a user request to cast that content

So you should not attempt to do so either.

To answer the second user, we do not support persistent LocalStorage, in the 
sense that you can use LocalStorage while you are inside your app but whenever 
the application terminates, we clear the local storage (think of it as running 
in incognito mode).
