Leverage ChromeView instead of WebView #31

Open kingargyle opened 10 years ago

It would be interesting to see ChromeView to be used instead of WebView if Chrome is installed on the device where cheapcast is running. Advantages could be more compliant web standard interface and wider codec support if the device has it meaning more native support.

This might solve some of the problems particularly on Google TV devices.

That actually is already on my roadmap. I get to it once my real ChromeCast device gets here ;)

I've settled with ContentShell (also based off Chromium) instead of ChromeView. This improves CheapCast a lot and will be deployed in the near future.

Sounds good.
