Excuse the basic questions but I’m not having much luck web searching for answers. I have the server running on my laptop which is also where the content itself if and I have an android phone with the mobile client installed via f-droid.

I can’t seem to cast to chromecast with Jellyfin from either the laptop itself, or the android client app. The client app lists streaming to chromecast specifically as one of it’s features in the description on f-droid.

    yep figured out the same thing in the end. Not quite sure why I can’t do it from the desktop, it’s obviously supposed to work, and nearly did given the text on my TV screen. I think with enough finagling one could get there, but if it works with the phone which is always on me anyway then whatever.
