Yeah I’m just so sick of cast being unreliable. The main reason I’m asking here is to answer two questions. It’s getting Chromecast set up on a raspberry pi even a thing (I’m just not really informed about what it requires), and are raspberry pis powerful enough to provide a silky smooth streaming experience. It’s kinda sounding like the answer is no.
I was casting video files from VLC. When I switched to YouTube I was trying to use the YouTube app on the Google tv. I’m starting to think my Google tv might be fucked up somehow so maybe I need to do a factory reset, but I have 2 of them and while ones better than the other, neither is that smooth.
