mkchromecast 0.3.9~git20200902+db2964a-2 (riscv64 binary) in ubuntu mantic
It is written in Python, and it streams via node.js or ffmpeg.
mkchromecast is capable of using lossy and lossless audio formats provided
that ffmpeg is installed. It also supports Multi-room group playback, and
24-bits/96kHz high audio resolution. Additionally, a system tray menu is also
available.
.
By default, mkchromecast streams with node.js (or parec in Linux) together
with mp3 audio coding format at a sample rate of 44100Hz and average bitrate
of 192k. These defaults can be changed using the --sample-rate and -b flags.
It is useful to modify these parameters when your wireless router is not very
powerful, or in the case you don't want to degrade the sound quality. You can
also cast videos using the --video flag.
.
mkchromecast can cast using either pulseaudio or ALSA. The respective
dependencies can be pulled by mkchromecast-
dependency packages respectively. For more information, please read the
README.Debian file shipped in this package.
