Hi all,

I installed the current version of Plex-Server (4.76.1) in a Docker container (MACVLAN, dedicated IP on the home network) on a raspberry pi.

Now I want to stream music directly from the server to my google home speakers via chromecast.

How do I do that?

When I open the Plex-Server Web-UI I can play music in the Browser (Firefox), but I cannot select any other device for playback.

I read that in Chrome browser the browser is handling the Chromecast support.

Is it not possible to tell the server to search for Chromecast devices in the local network by itself and then offer these as playback devices on the Web-UI?
