Cast All The Things allows you to send videos from many, many online sources (YouTube, Vimeo, and a few hundred others) to your Chromecast. It also allows you to cast local files.

Installation

You can install Cast All The Things with pip:

pip install catt

Usage

To use Cast All The Things, just specify a URL:

catt cast "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZMfhtKa-wo"

CATT supports any service that youtube-dl supports, which includes most online video hosting services.

CATT can also cast local files (if they’re in a format the Chromecast supports natively):

catt cast ./myvideo.mp4

You can also control your Chromecast through catt commands, for example with catt pause. Try running catt --help to see the full list of commands.
