Hi all,
I am a heavy YouTube Music user and we are mainly consuming it through our mobile phones, which means, we open the app, start the music and cast to google nest speaker or stream over Bluetooth to echo devices.
I am interested in, streaming to echo devices as if they are google speakers.
What i know;
- google cast is different than alexa cast functionalities, this would not work out of the box.
- connecting a google audio cast dongle to each echo device would make this happen but in an expensive way.
- there is a YouTube music custom integration which can stream media into any other media player but it requires to be controlled over home assistant.
I am planing to get help from Logitech Media Server add-on to stream into echo devices directly using MediaServer Plugin. This will help me to stream something into echo devices from LMS world. https://mediaserver.smartskills.tech/
I need community help to find out a software to enable Google Cast receiver support from related apps (YouTube Music, YouTube, Spotify etc) and become a media player source for home assistant. I would appreciate for any lead.
Thanks
