Well, until this morning two of my #Chromecast Audios were still working with noncommercial apps like #VLC and #SomaFM, since they don't ask the devices to authenticate. But today those have dropped off the network as well.
And the third one is working for this purpose as well, after unplugging it and plugging it back in. (No factory reset for me!) #Chromecast #ChromecastAudio.
Was wrong about the #SomaFM app though, it's no longer finding the devices. However, can cast SomaFM streams (and any others) from the VLC app by grabbing the URLs from the handy website.
Hang on, they're still working, for that purpose. Enjoying some Brubeck streamed off my own file server while making dinner.
