Hi, I have the same setup at home. I have also added chromecast support to my local branch and also played with the one from 1stsetup. Both implementations work, I can start streaming.to the chromecast. But with my setup I do not see any video because chromecast does not support the MPEG2-TS format which my tvheadend is using to record data. There seems to be no option to change the type.
You can start playing one of your recordings with vlc player and check the type of video format used.

I think if you were to support webm container for transcoder it would work through localcast
from tvhclient.
Streaming live tv to the chromecast is working when you select the right video codec (VP8) and the right audio codec (VORBIS). Both available in my github repor on branch cast. You need the github of tvheadend.
Recordings cannot be streamed with transcoding because tvheadend is currently not capable of doing this.
As of last week tvheadend cannot work together with TVHClient anymore for transcoding as they have changed the API for this in tvheadend. You now have to create a stream profile and use this.
from tvhclient.
With the recent transcoding changes in tvheadend it would be great if chromecast support was added now that you can set streaming profiles.It works using tvheadend > plex > chromecast but the streams are slow to start for some reason.

Did anyone have success getting tvheadend and chromecast running? When I use the CastHelloVideo example and load a custom url like http://server:9981/stream/channelid/647796853?ticket=...&profile=webtv-vp8-vorbis-webm nothing happens on the chromecast. It just says media error in the log. Also passing this url within the TVHClient app does not work. So how do I get Chromecast running with Live TV or recordings?
from tvhclient.
I'll close this issue because implementing this is possible. But making this work is depends on the server. It must be powerful enough to transcode the stream.
