My Synology NAS is not powerful enough to transcode videos on the fly, so I decided to write a script which converts all my local media into Chromecast supported format using ffmpeg.
You can get the script from my GitHub repository chromecastize and convert all your media to Chromecast supported format by running one command - such as:
./chromecastize.sh /Volumes/MyNASIf you come across any issues or have ideas for improvement, please, report them by using issues in the GitHub repository.
hello,
ReplyDeleteI was looking for such a tool.
Little problem:
medors-imac:Mum Medor$ sh ./chromecastize.sh /Users/Medor/BTSync/films/Mum
./chromecastize.sh: line 6: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
./chromecastize.sh: line 6: `'
Any idea how to solve it?
Thanks in advance

Hi Romain,
Delete(currently) you can't pass a directory to the script - you need to pass individual files.
In order to pass all files from a directory (recursively), do this:
find /Users/Medor/BTSync/films/Mum -type f -exec ./chromecastize.sh {} \;
Note that it's also mentioned in Examples on https://github.com/bc-petrkotek/chromecastize page
Hope that helps!
There are recently a lot of products coming out that will help you in your decision on being able to stream content to your TV.reset chromecast
