Niclas Runarsson 2020-10-04: Finally a subtitle cast... I thought until I realized that the audio was missing. :(
David Hobbs 2020-09-06: \ Think globally some say but invest locally even 1.49.Thx for the help and memories.
Bryan B 2019-03-13: Worked really well for a long time but lately it has been having problems. It seems to need to connect to a site that can't be reached. It seems like it might have been hosted at appspot but was perhaps removed. https://subtitlevideoplayer.appspot.com/static/ChromeOsSubtitle/src
Robbie Smith 2018-05-03: No audio when streaming large files. App crashes.
Joseph Aday 2017-12-25: finally! i can properly cast my local video files to my tv. thank you!!!
Axel Artola 2017-11-20: No sound and no way con config it. And i cant uninstal it yet
J.D. Ocon 2017-09-17: This what ive been searching and it is free. Beast.
Piergiorgio “Zibri” Zambrini 2017-04-22: Plays an MKV, no audio. No audio track selection. No subtitle selection. Unusable at the moment.
Shervin Bz 2017-02-25: Does the job!
Hudson Santos 2017-02-14: sounds great, but simply do not plays, and do not inform why
Bri Jones 2016-12-18: it did not work
Jan Andreas Drury Løvlien 2016-10-22: Loved the integration of subtitles, and generally flawless streaming. Invaluable for anyone with chromecast.
Asim Ali 2016-09-03: Super Awesome app with high functionality..... Does the job superbly! The ONLY downside is inability to play wmv and flv files (i use videostream for that).Otherwise it is perfect! I will delete videostream away if this app starts supporting flv and wmv :) But i still use this one for all other files because of its simple yet efficient interface
Vishakha Purohit 2016-08-05: AMAZING
Squalle 2016-07-28: Lame. This isn't needed to cast to a Chromecast. Anyone can use a tab to "cast my screen" and put in on the tv. Yeah, like that would be worth the watch. And this isn't an extension, it's an app. And It's just a link to their site. If you go to your google apps (chrome://apps/) you'll see it there and you can remove it from chrome.
Alex Oren 2016-07-23: Does not accept local subs. All subs need to exist on opensubtitles.org site . except that a good combination of Chromecast and SRT functionalities
Martti Huttunen 2016-06-19: Out of the 5 or 6 of alternatives for chromecast video players I've tried this is the only one that actually worked.
Henrique Stabile 2016-06-16: Works great, very simple! I only thought it lacks some more basic subtitle setups like positioning and colours. All the rest is great!
Paul Suquet 2016-06-11: Would not play audio.
Akash Chaturvedi 2016-06-10: this is awesome...very useful
Daniel Sánchez Sendón 2016-05-15: Doesn't play mkv.
Sami Länsipaltta 2016-04-29: Doesn't play audio on my .mkv
norman madden 2016-04-29: Cannot uninstall, does not show as installed under extensions, and plays mkv files to a blank screen.
Kilt Joy 2016-04-18: I have no need for the subtitle stuff. Streaming local wifi to ChromeCast, working smooth.
Jason Doyle 2016-04-17: One of the worst out there, cant play ANY .mov file, could not handle a 58MB mov file, Dont bother
Loutchy Mattei 2016-03-26: sucks too much CPU. I have o powerfull hp laptop but still...overheating my system. sorry guys
Last Ryde 2016-03-18: doesn't play all file types
Steffen Rachou 2016-02-22: Doesn't play mkv and avi files, but everything else is super!
Denisson Leal 2016-02-14: funfou
Abdulkader Abdulkader 2016-01-07: nice
joe malasky 2015-12-31: doesn't do VOB.
Youssef Jaber 2015-12-26: doesn't support chromecast audio
YILDIRIM TV 2015-12-26: super
Stavros Oldjohn 2015-12-25: Please change that ugly icon.. Use png format. The app works great but Chromecast Audio is not supported.
Pontus Andersson 2015-12-12: No sound
Ella Bobella 2015-10-29: Can't figure out how to load .srt file. It supposedly searches opensubtitles.org for the file and loads it automatically. I was able to find the file on opensubtitles.org and download it, but there appears to be no way to load it. Search feature in app fails despite file being hosted on site.
James Kinahan 2015-10-26: a ery usefull app
Brian Ching 2015-10-19: Playlist would be a great feature waiting to be added
Stefan Badescu 2015-10-16: Fast and good.
Matan Yehoshua 2015-10-16: Hello, The app works very well with Chromecast. one issue, the RTL subtitles (hebrew/arabic) didn't show correctly, for example: http://i.imgur.com/laJUKYy.png Please, if you can, try to fix this issue, here is example file of subtitle: http://dl.opensubtitles.org/en/download/sub/6341160
- PST 2015-09-27: For me this app is working very well. Sometimes the captions must be sync with the tool on the bottom right of the screen (CC).
E Gk 2015-09-25: It's nice if you need subtitles but would be great if you could add drag and drop of video and subtitles both.
Anonymous 2015-09-16: Plays and casts well with the exception of limited codecs so no audio on many current video files. One would expect a .mkv file to play with audio but it might not... Not interested in converting existing formats just to use this player. Expecting users to do so is weak. If this issue was fixed it'd be a 4 star rating at least. Instead I'm getting rid of it in favor of something else.
Stephen Simon 2015-09-13: Doesn't play the video file in full screen and I couldn't get sound to work at all.
Marc Sweet 2015-09-09: meh
Horace Fields 2015-08-19: Plays mp4's and you can also load a .srt subtitle file. I'm on an old Samsung chromebook and the playback is still smooth.
Anonymous 2015-07-18: on Samsung Chromebox ChromeOS and crashes everytime I play a movie.
Alexandre Rodrigues Xavier 2015-06-19: I would much rather the app called VideoStream
Pieter Heemeryck 2015-06-03: I felt compelled to write that I think its an amazing extension. I played .mkv extensions without problems and could choose between donwloading subtitles or use my own. All worked great ! This was exactly what I was looking for since I bought my Chromecast :)
David Clark 2015-05-05: I was sitting around wondering if an app like this existed, and it does. You are awesome.
