Would love to know why there's no Chromecast option on the Deezer Desktop app.
I realise that it's in Beta only, but is there a plan to include it?
I'm currently a Spotify (Premium) user and would be happy to change over to Deezer should there be the option to cast directly from the desktop app 🙂

Hi there @hnadj @Rob Igo

With our new integration, it isn't possible to cast from a desktop at the moment. But we're still planning around this.

So like Rob said, it is possible to cast, but with the previous integration - not the new one which is more stable :thumbsup_tone2:

Hi there 🙂 It's going to be implemented soon 🙂 We're already testing it and it should be available with one of the next updates 🙂

Would be great. Any update on this?
Are you also testing a HEOS connect option?

time is flying and no chromecast option for your desktop app - why?

Why is a newspaper ten times more interesting when somebody across the table is reading it?

Deezer. Sort this out. It's high time you added a cast function from the Desktop App as you promised 6 months ago. We're paying for this If you can do it on the mobile apps you can do it on he desktop. Spotify manages to do it just fine.

A year ago and still waiting on this. WTH is going on?

Would also really like to see this.

Regularly use Deezer on my desktop PCs (Win 8.1 & Win 10). Much easier to be able to cast from them rather than suck phone battery.

I thought since deezer moved to a web based windows app (probably chromium/v8 as the engine) it would of made it pretty easy to allow for a cast function.

Some feedback from the dev team would be nice!

Hey @MarcelQ @Rob.W

Thank you for your support and feedback.

We've been working for quite some time on a new integration, using Google's new protocol. As soon as we have more updates from our devs, we'll let you know :thumbsup_tone2:

@Rudi Just started my 3 month trial - time is ticking. Casting from PC (and FireTV support*) are absolutely mandatory features.

Sounds great casting from my phone, but for a premium service, there are way too many holes in the infrastructure of supported device and features.

(* Amazon FireTV is shown as a supported device, but I can’t find the app when I search for it.)

Hey @rruss

Thank you for your support and for your patience.

We've just released our new Chromecast integration - have a go and let us know how it works.

About FireTV, we'll be checking this and back to the community once we have more news :thumbsup_tone2:
