Damn nice. This is long overdue. So now it comes down to compatible, small footprint hardware that can use this as time passes on. Looking forward to this
Weird, I thought there were already a few open casting projects.
Miracast is a standard not a implementation.
I am following NymphCast since the beginning and while it is still promising but beta software at best with limited functionality, by choosing the language 'AngleScript' theyhavee shot themself in the foot to.get new devs onboard.
Oh sure, I just didn't want to reference every miracast project, I suppose it is worth throwing a link for miraclecast out there though, since that seems like one of the most popular. I believe the GNOME desktop environment also had an effort to support miracast standard.

I just wanted to point out that fcast seems to have done their own thing when there were some efforts already in play, which is totally fine. I was just surprised I didn't see an entry in their FAQ like "How is fcast different from X?".
Looks promising. I like it! 🥰
is this from louis rossmann's company? the repo has grayjay, too.

As far as I understand this needs to be implemented into every service individually, so as long as providers like Disney+, AppleTV, etc. If the providers don't bother, I as an consumer cannot use FCast, right? Or can it act as a drop in replacement for Chromecast?
You can try it for yourself by testing GrayJay I guess
I love what Futo is doing!
VoiceInput works great.
I don't see where I would use this as a consumer. I usually cast YouTube to my TV on the odd occasion to my TV that is smart. My other TV that isn't smart has a Chromecast. Could this implemented in to a raspberry pi or some other style of devices to use with my TV?
It can cast a file from phone to the desktop or vice versa or to an android TV.
You can run the receiver on the raspberry pi and then cast to it from your android. I have not been able to find any android sender other than grayjay which can stream videos from YouTube and other platforms.
Does this support DRM protected streams, for example with Widevine? Whether one likes DRM or not, it is clear that support for it is a hard requirement for any streaming apps to support this.
