Chromecast TTS and on screen display of text

Configuration
1

So i just figured out i can TTS to chromecast. This immediately solves a great problem with not having Alexa speakers in inaccessible places.

So it works great, but i was wondering, Is there any way of displaying the text i am feeding to TTS, rather then just getting the cast icon and a progress bar?

I’m trying to do this kind of MOTD message on the screen, and it would be nice if people could read it too. No big deal, but would be nice if chromecast api allows it, but i haven’t seen anything like that.

You can cast a Lovelace page so put the message on a markup card. But I don’t think it can be done at the same time.

That’s a good idea, i’ll look into that.
