Adding #FCast support to #CastLab was a good idea, thanks to the contributors who suggested it.
First built for #DLNA devices, the app also works with this open-source protocol, an alternative to closed ones like Chromecast.
It supports screen sharing and playback of online videos. In the next release, it will also offer an AIDL API and a library, so other Android apps can easily use it to cast.
More about FCast:
https://fcast.org/CastLab is only available on #FDroid.
