Frustrated by the inability to cast videos from this device I set about creating an app that would fill this void.
This involved quite a bit of research, wire-shark network traffic analysis and trial and error but after few weeks of effort I was able to produce an app that allows you tube videos to be cast from windows phones.
So far the response has been pretty positive. It took a few weeks before it showed up in the store but as of last week the acquisitions grew from basically none to over 1000.
I have included a banner ad at the top of the app. So far the ad impressions seem pretty steady. I use pub center as my paid network and ad duplex for affiliate advertising, See ad duplex graph below.
Anyway regardless of whether it makes any money this app has served its purpose by giving me another device to cast videos with. If you have any feedback or feature request leave a comment or send us an email/tweet.
I downloaded youcast and there is sound but no picture it worked well @ some point, tho now it doesn't. I need some trouble shooting..
ReplyDeleteSorry for the inconvenience. It seems like google changed something recently so that the old way of playing youtube videos on chromecast now just plays the sound and shows the youtube splash screen. We are currently investigating and will release an update fix the issue as soon as we have a solution.
DeleteSorry for the delay on this. The issue has now been fixed.
DeleteI'm coming using YouCadt for at last one month without issues. Yesterday when I try to use again, something happen with the video, because I only can listening but without video
