Using Chromecast with Google TV as a dlna media player?
What is the most comfortable way to use the recent Chromecast with Google TV as a media player for Serviio 2.1 content?
How do you configure the Chromecast?
Do you run an App on the Chromecast and, if so, which app?
How do you ensure that Serviio identifies the Chromecast (+app?) properly and selects an appropriate profile?
How do you write that proper profile?
Ideally, if using a media player app, I would like to always communicate with said app, w/o having to explicitly start the app first, and if I start, say, chromecasting from my phone, the chromecast session should temporarily override the player app.
But, if Chromecast+app can't be set up quite as comfortably as that, I can live with "almost as good" or "whatever works".
