Basement for Chromecast

Basement has its own device profile for Chromecast, so the server converts only what the TV can’t play. Casting plays only https streams with a certificate the TV trusts, so your server needs an https address: your own domain, Basement’s relay, or an https reverse proxy. A plain http address on your home network won’t cast.

A Chromecast or Cast-enabled TV, and an https address for your server (your own domain or a relay)

  1. Open Basement on your phone or computer

    Use the web app in Chrome, or the phone app.

  2. Pick a title

    Start a movie or episode as you normally would.

  3. Tap the Cast button

    Choose your TV, and playback moves to it.
