Stream widget tree to chromecast #34

I've seen a lot of casting libraries that enable streaming video and pictures to a device. I'd like to stream a rendered portion of my app and I'm not sure how I would do that without creating a jpg of the app and cropping it.

Ideally, I'd like the app itself to have a different interface during casting and to render an app on the screen from widgets. In the dom realm this would be something like an off-screen canvas that could be captured as a stream.

Is this possible with a casting connection from a Flutter app?

@eighty4 were you able to do that? I need to do the same.

Either screenshot update via Chromecast or use leanback mode for Android and communicate between the apps running on an Android phone or tablet and and on a Google TV.
