I’m wondering if Rasplex acts like a Chromecast or if it works natively when I’m using the ‘stream to Rasplex’ option on the mobile app. With native I mean Rasplex using his own settings (like bandwidth stream), instead of using the mobile app settings (like the Chromecast do).

It works ‘natively’, basically all you are doing is remotely telling Rasplex to play some media, it will use the settings configured in Rasplex for playback.

Regards.
