libcast is an open source implementation of the Cast protocols that allow Cast senders to launch Cast applications and stream real-time media to Cast-compatible devices (aka "receivers").
Included are two applications, cast_sender and cast_receiver that
demonstrate how to send and receive media using a Cast Streaming session.
Libcast is roughly broken into components by folder, with a non-exhaustive list of the most important listed here:
-
streaming/ - Cast Streaming (both sending and receiving media).
-
receiver/public/ - Cast server socket and a demonstration server (agent).
-
sender/public/ - Cast client socket and supporting APIs to launch Cast applications.
-
standalone_receiver/ - A reference implementation of a receiver application.
-
standalone_sender/ - A reference implementation of a sender application.
-
test/ - Integration tests.
With all of the documentation for this implementation in the docs folder. See the architecture.md as a potential jumping off point.
*** aside
The streaming module can be used independently of the sender and receiver
modules.
