I bought two Chromecast devices yesterday, an Audio and a Chromecast for the TV.
I installed the Castbridge plugin on my Vortexbox 2.4 running Fedora 23 64 bit, LMS Version: 7.9.0 - 1463151428 @ Mon May 16. Castbridge installed OK but wouldn't work. After searching I found reference to permissions for /var/lib/squeezeboxserver/cache/InstalledPlugins/Plugins/CastBridge/Bin/squeeze-2-cast-x86-64 not including executable (http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?104614-Announce-CastBridge-integrate-Chromecast-players-with-LMS-%28squeeze2cast%29&p=853153&viewfull=1#post853153) , Filezilla changed the permissions to 755. Logging on in Putty and executing squeeze-2-cast-x86-64 showed some missing dependencies as detailed here - http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?104614-Announce-CastBridge-integrate-Chromecast-players-with-LMS-%28squeeze2cast%29&p=841141&viewfull=1#post841141 - searching for the missing modules ie libssl.so and libcrypto.so and copying them into the /lib64 directory enabled squeeze-2-cast-x86-64 to be executed. So, then it was a simple matter of re-booting the server, going to the Chromecast Bridge settings in the Plugins tab and selecting squeeze-2-cast-x86-64 - don't select squeeze-2-cast-x86-64-static as it doesn't exist ! I didn't change anything else and the two Chromecast devices were detected and appeared in the list of players. So far I have only streamed/cast to the audio player as I typed this. Thank you Philippe and your tireless testers CommanderROR, kidstypike , bpa, passtim and the rest.
