VideoCast For Mac

VideoCast is a simple and very easy-to-use Mac OS X application specially designed to help you stream your videos to your TV.

VideoCast comes with a built-in video encoder capable to convert multimedia files in real time in order to stream the content in a format supported by Chromecast.

It is worth mentioning that VideoCast features support for most popular file formats, including AVI, MKV, MOV, MP4, FLV, X264, XVID and more.

To start using VideoCast you first have to drag and drop your file directly onto its interface, click on the play button and let VideoCast do the hard work. VideoCast automatically opens the stream page in your default browser and starts the streaming and encoding process.

This might prove to be a problem if Google Chrome is not your default browser since VideoCast is only capable to stream video via Chrome. On top of that, you need to have the Google Cast extension installed in order to start streaming to Chromecast.

Unfortunately this might prove to be counter-intuitive and, as a result, some users might look for alternatives.

VideoCast works in the background in order to convert and stream the video to your Chromecast in a supported file format. By accessing the Advanced panel, you can adjust the bit rate and load subtitle files for your movie.

From VideoCast’s main window you can track the playback and encoding process, and stop or restart the streaming.

If you are looking for an application capable to stream your multimedia content to your TV via Chromecast, then you should try out VideoCast and decide if it is the right app for you.
