When, as I imagine many will know, using a Pi Zero with the intention of streaming videos, say from YouTube, is useless because of the Ram capacity on its board. However, using Raspicast to directly cast from the app on my phone to the pi zero connected to my 21inch tv it works, and has a crystal clear picture and no buffering issues or freezes so far - spectacular eh. So that is my use of this app. Nevertheless, one star is lacking from 5 because it would be nice to have a few more functions.

Worked after I switched the audio output to ALSA — by default in Settings > Audio Options sets HDMI, but my speakers where connected to the audio jack so that needed to be changed. Hoping to see further development and improvements. Also has the bonus of being able to play files on the remote box.

My raspicast does not play the youtube video after sharing it with raspicast. The raspicast app does open but does not render the youtube video on my tv. I am able to render the videos stored on this phone and the audio stored there. But im unable to play youtube videos! Ive installed omxiv for the images but i cant render the images either. Please help.
