VidCast: Chromecast for the rest of the web
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/11/13
I know, friday 13, bla, bla, but this works great! VidCast: Chromecast for the rest of the web.
It works with: Vimeo, TED, and tons of other sites.
The first I tried is was a great half hour Devopsdays Amsterdam 2015 session “Leslie Hawthorn – Fear of Failing Fast: How to Avoid Sabotaging Your Success”
The easiest way is to drag the VidCast bookmarklet button to your bookmarks bar once, then for videos you want to watch:
- Load the video page.
- Press the VidCast button.
- Click the play button.
- Choose the ChromeCast to cast to.
- Enjoy the cast.
The hard way is to get the download URL and paste it at https://vidcast.dabble.me, then press the Go button there.
Oh yes, of course:
You must have Chrome, Google Cast Extension, and a Chromecast or Chromecast 2015. See supported media.
