ChromeCast working on googleapi clip but not on local one #142

Hello,

I want to play a local clip with nodejs in Angular and then cast it to ChromeCast. I did a test with the clip bellow and it worked - using the link to it. CLIP

I downloaded the clip and tried to play it locally, it will connect to the TV but the clip is not starting.

How should I build the NodeJs server for the clip to be streamable?

Here it is the repo: GIT

Thank you!

Hello,

After many tries I found something that works: start the server on the router IP address and on port 8080. app.listen(8080, '192.168.X.X', () => { console.log('Server running...'); });

In cmd type ipconfig search Wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi and use the IPv4 Address or use: const os = require('os'); let networkInterfaces = os.networkInterfaces(); In my case: let serverIp = networkInterfaces['Wi-Fi'][3]['address'] app.listen(8080, serverIp, () => { console.log('Server running...'); });
