How is this different from something like BubbleuPnP or Plex? No GUI? I'm not a developer so a lot of what I see when I click through to Github is gobbledygook.


The benefit of this library is being able to play media on multiple chromecasts on the same network. So using this, a developer could create a Plex-style app for casting to multiple TVs. One use case could be digital signage at an event, where you'd want to control all TVs from one console.


It's not supposed to be a media center software, it's just casting content to Chromecasts that announce their presence in the local network.
