Great Start Works better than I expected for a first release. One small feature request and it would be perfect: the ability to work without the app being foreground, eg, behind a lockscreen. Doesn't make sense for videos I know, but would be quite useful for music

Now works on the OUYA via Ethernet! Sideloaded the latest version on my OUYA connected via Ethernet and now for the first time it works! I have only tried YouTube and it works! Great job!

Awesome app, please add OUYA support Works perfectly between my N4 & N7 2012. Sideloaded the apk to my OUYA and it won't show up as a device. I would love to cast from my N7 to my OUYA
★★☆☆☆
Great concept, not ready yet Developer makes it clear is a beta version... and it is. Screen must be on for it to work. YouTube works great for me but Google Play Music is so sporadic that it's useless at this point for what I want, which is to make my speakers chromecast compatible. Once the bugs get ironed out this will be a 5* app.

Black screen Finally I was able to start the service on Logitech Revue. But when I cast Youtube video, Revue shows black screen. ( though I can see the title of video.)
