Such a horrible UI, just wow, how did you came up with this?!
It's stuck on the loading screen..
Doesn't stream for me. It detects the video link (m3u8) It detects the device I want to cast to (Nest Hub) It initializes the video but the screen stays black and busy but never plays. I guess I'm stuck using Web Video Caster for android to stream my links. meh!
Does not work for me.

I love I can do this: https://go2nts.com/playit/video/jeep.mp4 but I hate I can't do this: file://KONA/TestVideos/jeep.mp4 where KONA is my local server. I know that ChromeCast does see that server, but the castbuddy is forcing a "HTTPS:" in front of my "file" string - BUMMER!

Hello I can't select the chromecast because the new chrome update doesn't allow it. Anyway, very good extension.

Doesn't seem to cast anything it finds - does the loading line then shows the castbuddy logo. Every time.

Kiedyś było w porządku, lecz od jakiegoś czasu gdy rozszerzenie nie jest w focusie, przerywa przesyłanie. Wystarczy kliknać w dowolne miejsce poza rozszerzeniem lub otworzyć nowa karte i wywala.

It casted the video but takes the screen hostage while it's playing. If I try to go to a different tab or try to scroll on the page, the video instantly stops

The last update was a big mistake, now the information inside the pop-up (to find, add and control videos) doesn´t fit and always have to scroll in horizontal way. But the saddest thing is that now the volume control doens´t exists anymore. I like it before when it was easy to scroll in the queue and the volume option was enabled to use it directly from the extension.

Esta nueva version es totalmente inutil una total basura ya no se puede conectar al chrome cast la version anterior era muchisimo mejor.
iyi
Maybe I don't know how to use it properly, but I can't make it working on a youtube page, it doesn't accept the Youtube URL of the video.

I was hopeful this would work but it just didn't seem to work at all well. Endless loading but no playing. Too bad it's a great idea.
