Chrome app "Videostream for Google Chromecast™" (rebranded "Chromecast Video") - Google Chromecast

Chrome app "Videostream for Google Chromecast™" (rebranded "Chromecast Video")
Chromecast Video v1.0.1 is gone from the Chrome Web Store. It has been replaced by Videostream for Google Chromecast™ 1.0.4:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chromecast-video/cnciopoikihiagdjbjpnocolokfelagl
or
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/videostream-for-google-ch/ebfagpccbccalgocgjlfkahogjfhliab
I guess the only difference is apps name.
A Chrome App That Streams Local Video From Your Computer To Chromecast™
Temporary until Google gets everything back together.

1.0.4
After some Google drama, we're back up and running. Turns out they hated that our icon was so cleverly similar to their Chrome icon. We're back now, better than ever after being pulled for 3 days.

BTW: you can have both version installed.

Too bad, I though the old name was kind of catchy.
No other changes? I guess we can wait for the next update then.

The old name violated Google's Terms of Service I would imagine as well.

It very much violated many Google's branding guidelines haha.
Edit:
The latest update basically just updated the icons, etc... and added some share buttons.

Is there any way to control Videostream from a remote device? I've dabbled with RemoteCast but it didn't seem to pick up on the Videostream content.

Great app! Keep up the good work!

Anyway to add time stamps along with forward/rewind 30 seconds etc

Can't get it to work
I'm trying to launch the app from my chrome browser and it keeps giving me an error saying that we can't connect to your chromecast. I checked the list and I have Chrome browser installed on my laptop, google cast extension as well and both are using the same wifi. I just don't know why it is happening to me. I even disabled my kaspersky internet security, but no luck at all....Is anyone having the same issue with me ?

App Needs Launch Button
Great aoo Works flawlessly but have to go to Web Store to launch. No launch button in chrome toolbar,

I really like the app Videostream for Chromecast. However, there is not a button on the toolbar that allows me to launch it from chrome directly. I have to go to the Play Store and launch from there. Anyone else have this problem? I have not been able to find any references about this problem on any forums.

It's an app not and extension. I find the open apps button on the bookmark bar, and it's there.
More info HERE or you can add a button HERE

I see we have an end time on the timeline now!

Oh-- it should be in your Start menu / Spotlight.

You have to have a Smart TV with the app installed for it to work.

They say if your chromecast is whitelisted...but unless they changed something google will see whos using the app by it being whitelisted and I dont think they can distribute the app like they are. I have a whitelisted chromecast bit the website of view bucket will not finish activating an account when you sign up. Smells kinda fishy

Some of the links like help and such seem broken, but if you're rooted with Eureka-ROM or a developer, you can still use it.
@Kyonz just added Vbukit to the Team Eureka whitelist, so you don't need to visit the Vbukit website.
You need to install two apps to make this work:
Vbukit for Chromecast
Vbukit User
To operate it:
Run Vbukit for Chromecast
Dismiss the petition request
Select your Chromecast from the Cast icon in the upper right - this will bring up a QR code on your TV.
Run the Vbukit (User) app (tapping Send to TV in the Vbukit for Chromecast app will launch this)
Tap Send File
Select media type
Select media file(s) - make sure you tap the upper-right of the thumbnail to select/deselect it, otherwise it'll try to just open it normally
Tap Send
Scan the QR code on your TV
The selected media should appear on Chromecast.
Use the zoom control and forward/back to control what's displayed
I'm going to "sign" the petition to help the dev get a public release, because I can definitely see this being very useful for teachers and other people doing presentations like @Notrega from this thread.
One thing I can't figure out... I can't disconnect Vbukit for Chromecast from my Chromecast, so the barcode just sits there until I run another Chromecast app.
Ahh, I see Virtual Bucket sent me an email (it must send to the account from the Play Store download) with login info.
Very slick!

I've heard about this app before....it was a month or so ago..a few weeks before Google "opened the gates" for that last batch of apps(Vimeo, Plex, Avia, RealPlayer, Red Bull, etc..) to be able to "work" with the Chromecast. I've been kinda wondering what it was actually used for and now I finally see its use, and it seems like a pretty darn useful app that can handle all different kinds of media, including webpages from your phone/tablet(This is pretty dang cool feature if ya ask me!!). But my question for you is: What's the difference in those two apps("Vbukit for Chromecast" and "Vbukit User") AND do we HAVE to use BOTH apps in order to make use of all of VBU Kit's features ? Sorry if this is a silly question, but I just don't want to download two different things and sign up for this app without fully knowing what I'm gettin myself into, ya know?
Thanks

A very valid question...
The Vbukit (Virtual Bucket) model consists of two endpoints. The Sender, where the media lives, and the Receiver, where the media is (dis)played.
Vbukit (User) is the Sender.
Vbukit for Chromecast is the Receiver. It's really just a "launcher" for the Vbukit receiver on Chromecast, since Chromecast has no interface.
There are also Vbukit for Google TV & Tablets, as well as other platforms.
You can also read more about Vbukit on its site.
Interestingly enough, you could technically get this to work on a non rooted chromecast if you intercepted an http address and forced the chromecast to navigate to the page.
Would there be any interest in an application that did this? like some sort of http man in the middle thing (not sure how I could present it).
Just wondering if anyone would use it.

The author seems pretty set on getting it out to the public with the whole petition thing and all, I suspect they'd love a workaround.
Not working on unrooted CC, cannot find device.. Any workaround (other than rooting)?.. Sounds as an interesting app to stream not white listed media..

For same-type content, you can multi-select before you send so you don't have to keep re-scanning the code.
Essentially the code scan seems to be a "session" so whatever you send applies to that "session" - after that you need to reconnect.

[Q] Annoying icon covering YouTube videos

It looks like some kind of RSS feed icon, it shows up when I put the video in landscape then won't go away. How do I remove/disable this?

I think that might be the chromecast icon but I'm not sure. Check if u have a connected tv under settings
Sent from my HTCONE using xda premium
I dont
I take it that this hasn't been "solved" yet? It is annoying.
Same problem here.
Galaxy Note2, suddenly I started seeing chrome cast icon on my YouTube videos.
Its was working just fne this morning. I dont have chrome cast device.
Any luck removing this thing.
This happens to me when I'm connected to my car through bluetooth. There has to be a TV or some other bluetooth device close by. When I turn bluetooth on then launch youtube the icon isnt there. But if I turn bluetooth off after I launch youtube the icon will not go away.
Open the app manager from the phone settings menu, find YouTube under the all tab and clear the default, cache, data, and force close. That did it for me. Also, if you do use cast or bluetooth, try to disconnect from the receiver when you're done. Not sure why it hangs like that.

I had this problem and looked around. The play store reviews mention it quite a bit, and I found a google circles comment saying they were aware of the problem. My only solution: download and install a prior version. I found the 5.1.10 apk for download by searching around.
I also went to play store and the youtube app and disabled automatic updating. I'll probably update it in a month or so and see if they've fixed it, yet, but still have the .apk of the older version on hand.

Any time I try to cast from Chrome I receive this message. I have uninstalled all extensions, reinstalled just the chromecast extension, uninstalled Chrome, reinstalled Chrome, and at this point I'm hoping someone else has experienced this. Anyone think of a fix?

Chromecast was working great, than all a sudden it started crashes with some sort of balloon message saying that the chromecast has crashed and to click on the balloon to restart it. I've heard that it's a damaged profile for the current user.. When you re-install Chrome, it uses uses the profile that is there, uninstalling Chrome doesn't do delete the profile. You can create a separate user and see if that works, or you can delete the profile for the current user and chrome creates it again. I haven't tried it because chromecast started crashing yesterday. I can't watch Netflix, YouTube, or cast anything. I just have a useless dongle.

On Android your not actually using the Googlecast Extension...They merely coded the Cast capabilities directly into the browser.
It may very well be working on Android's version of Chrome Beta...
But then again if I'm using my Android I don't need the Chrome Browser to cast much anyway. LOL Most of what I watch has an App that supports it.
(And yes I know the Browser will support websites that do not have apps, I'm just saying that because I don't really watch a lot of videos on other websites)
I am curious if it will work on the TV Networks Webpages though...
Thanks for telling me how Chromecast work on Android

Well, I tried everything and the Chromecast still crashing. I must be using the latest version of Chromecast and the latest version of Chrome (probably the cause). Google updates something (Chrome or Chromecast) and then things you depended on stop working.. I'm also using Android. And yes, used to work on TV Networks Pages, but you have to put Chromeast on 480p, The 720p setting stutters both in sound and picture. But then, it is a Beta, so we have to be patient. Do you know where I can fine previous versions of Chrome? (I use Windows to play TV Network pages and movies not found on Netflix.)

I'm also not convinced this isn't due to some wonky behavior in Google Services.
It happens totally at random even when your just reading a web page which says to me it has something to do with scanning for units or connecting to GServices that seems to set it off. Cause it sure isn't doing anything else when it crashes.

It has do something that Google did in the greatest and latest version of Chrome or Chromecast (thanks for the tech explanation, Asphyx) . It was working just fine on the old what I guess was a old version of Chrome for more than 2 months, that's when a got the Chromecast dongle.Is there any way of getting older versions of Chrome? I'd love to fix this problem since I watch a lot of movies in the browser, it's the only way. I'm one of those strange guys who got rid of cable and just use the antenna, and Netflix and free movie sites. Hey, I save $65. Thanx for the help.

[Q] Casting PowerPoint or PDF from Note 3

Just as the title says. I want to know if there is anyway to cast a PowerPoint or PDF directly from my Note 3. I know I can do it from my laptop via Google Drive but I want to be able to just need the Chromecast and my phone to run presentations for a classes.
I have looked around and have not seen and solution to do this from the phone.

Not at the moment as far as I know. Would be a piece of cake if we had Android screen mirroring, but we don't yet.
If you export the PPT or PDF as still images, you can cast those stills from Avia, though you should be mindful of scaling and aspect ratio.
Sounds like it'd be a good app idea though!

For some reason when you do a search for Chromecast in the Play Store it lists Quickoffice among the Apps.
I checked and can find no CCast support in it at all...
Just mentioning that for anyone who might try it thinking it does support CCast...it Doesn't!

Oops, Shouldn't be here

I 've a problem here. So i am posting my query here if any of you experts can help me.
I have successfully setup my chromecast and its running fine with bubbleUnp.
But the problem is i cant cast any video using youtube app on my android device. it always says "Oops shouldn't be here"...
I am starting to hate this phrase now. kindly anyone help me what is the problem and why my chromecast cant cast youtube app?
A few questions...
Does the same video play from YouTube on your phone/tablet or a computer?
Are you using any DNS/region relocation services like Unotelly, Unlocator, etc?
Are you using a VPN?

1. Yes i can play it without any error, as normally played on the Youtube app.
2. No, i am not using any such service.
3. No i am not using VPN.
supporting information:
Youtube is officially blocked in my country (Pakistan), thus youtube cannot be accessed using internet browser. But if i use youtube app in my android using wifi i can access youtube and can play all videos. If i do the same over mobile data, its restricted. I can understand that browser or mobile data doesnt support youtube because it has been blocked by our Government but how is it possible i can use it on android app?
Lets assume authorities have left a loop hole here that it can be played using android youtube app but it can not be played using browser, then why chromecast cant play it? does it work on the pattern or structure of a web browser?

Exactly that. Your phone isn't retrieving the YouTube data and passing it to Chromecast.
Chromecast is a separate autonomous client. It's like if you see something on your phone and read the URL to your friend who puts that into their YouTube client. So whatever loophole exists on your phone, Chromecast doesn't have it.
