Tubecast developer Webrox has just posted a minor update to his Playcast streaming media app, mainly focussed on bug fixes.
Unlike his Tubecast app the app is aimed at local and cloud media (video, songs and pictures) and not Youtube video, but like that app it supports streaming to a variety of receivers including Chromecast, Chromecast Audio, Apple TV (AirPlay), DLNA Smart TV, Internet Box, XBOX One, XBOX 360. The app can work in the background, meaning you can start a video playing and then use your phone for other purposes, and it will even streaming a video from OneDrive to your TV.
The app has just had its third update in the Windows Store, taking it to version 0.8.0.2.
The update brings:
- Chromecast bug fix (was due to the new firmware)
- Crash fix (bug in UWP crash while going to fullscreen sometimes)
- DLNA server better handled (MonkeyServer)
- Few minor bugfixes in UI
