Plex is an extremely popular home media center program, and thanks to some early configuration files found in its server software, we’ve got a pretty good hint that it’ll be functional on Chromecast fairly soon. Plex has several configuration files built-in to determine how it should send transcoded video, so if there’s a config file for Chromecast, it’s pretty clear that official support isn’t far off. Plex has always said they were planning on supporting Chromecast, so this shouldn’t be a huge surprise to anyone.
Hopefully this will make a convenient way for users to play local files to Chromecast, which is something developers have struggled to get working properly.
