Has anyone figured out how to cast a live webcam to a chromecast? #88

I'm really hoping to figure out how I can get something like a live MJPG feed (coming from TinyCam that I'm displaying through ActionTiles) to be able to display on a chromecast. I've got the preset setup, and the trigger causes the cast screen to come up on my TV, but there's no video.

Yeah. I use it with Blue Iris.

Will look into it for next release. If it's possible, will implement mjpeg.
