NymphCast: Casual attempt at open alternative to Chromecast
Hi there,I'm from Chrome, someone on my team pointed me at this thread.   My team supports casting features in Chrome.  This is a fantastic project and it's great to see energy around this.I get the frustration around the inability to make devices work together for casting.  In the standards community, we have been working with other companies and researchers on a protocol [1] that provides the groundwork for interoperability in media streaming and media control on the Web between browsers/apps and devices.  We are developing an open source implementation and plan to see it in future products.There's a lot of other work going on in the Web standards community as well, that in the near future will allow Web apps to create their own media codec pipelines and streaming protocols customized to their needs [2] [3].[1] https://w3c.github.io/openscreenprotocol/
