Anyway to cast directly to chromecast through a cast button simliar to youtube.com and google music on your phone/tablet? I can cast the entire screen,but was hoping for a native cast button..

I really hope Google adds this functionality to the Google Music web app at some point.
I'm confused, you're talking about the Google Play Music app with subscription service right? Because it has cast ability built-in if you have the latest version on mobile devices.

He's referring to being on a personal computer on a web browser. Far as I know there isn't a native cast button

Ahh thanks for the clarification, now that I read it slowly I see and agree. Wish there was a way to cast from a desktop like how the mobile app does, having a white control bar is not very good for tv's without a screensaver option.

This would be in a specially important update for Canadians as we can't even subscribe to Google Music

Anyone have the Play Music app force close upon trying to cast?
I wish there was browser support because this issue is annoying me...

I did have this issue. I needed to unplug my chromecast to get it to work, then it went fine.
I do hope Google adds that capability. I use Google music through the web quite a bit at home.
Soon?
When this loading the google music website icon appears but when finishes loading disappears ... it will be implemented soon?
This would be a good addition but just using the Chromecast Extension works perfectly fine. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-cast/boadgeojelhgndaghljhdicfkmllpafd
That's now possible !

This is some info I can't keep but sharing I came across a video about Chromecast work around. It was really lengthy and boring...but..here's what it was. Use the app avia (it's worth paying for) and the app show box. After installing link the avia to your Chromecast, then open up the show box app find a movie or show. Select what quality your Wi-Fi can handle. UN check the use internal player, click watch now and select avia. So far from what I can tell I could disconnect my Hulu, Netflix and probably my cable. Every series I watch was on there and every movie I've bought through vudu was there. Show box is not in the android app store but I found it on slideme's website. Another video app is tv portal

Is it legal?

This is by far the best combination of apps for streaming any media directly off any android chrome site, and I've tried every combo I can think of. I still have no true way of rendering unsupported formats to stream off of native apps without getting a PC involved...any ideas???

What does adding VLC in the food chain buy you? Have you tried going directly to Web Video Caster?
Have you tried the Chrome Beta and going to chrome://flags and casting directly?
No phone-only solution exists for transcoding unsupported to supported codecs.
Very true. I didn't like the chrome beta too much but web casters pretty cool. I guess I just have high hopes for possibilities to where vlc on android with streaming could lead to.

I use AllCast. But also, my tv can just scroll through my NAS without my devices.
I hate the YouTube app with a passion, but use chrome as my browser. I've noticed lately that videos won't play anymore though, are taking our freedom of choice away or is this just happening to me? When I try to open YouTube link it just loads a blank page.
No problem here
Chrome version ending with .133
