title: Can I change album art on a chromecast styled media receiver without using RemoteMediaPlayer.load?
body: <p>After finding out that the Cordova plugin I use to work with Chromecast doesn't send the MediaInfo.Metadata I provide (see <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25823031/how-to-set-change-album-art">How to set/change album art?</a>), I've decided to implement it myself. But this brings me to the following question:</p>
  
  <p>Can I <strong>change</strong> the album art image <strong>after</strong> I loaded the media using <code>RemoteMediaPlayer.load()</code>?</p>
  
  <p>The thing is that I'm using the chromecast to play a radio stream, so it would be nice if I could change the 'now playing' info without reloading the entire stream. I only want to set the title and image(s).</p>
  
  <p>This is, of course, possible when I build my own Custom Receiver app but I hope that the default Styled Media Receiver already provides some method for this.</p>
  
  <p>I think I would need to use <code>sendMessage()</code>, and <a href="https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/reference/messages" rel="nofollow noreferrer">the Chromecast Developer site does mention sending messages and images</a>, but it only says that 'media messages' have a predefined namespace (<code>urn:x-cast:com.google.cast.media</code>) and then nothing. It says images have three properties (url, width, height) but not what the syntax of the message should be.</p>
  
  <p>So can anyone help me with this?</p>
