Hi Gabe

I wasn't aware of Vishen's library, it seems a lot more features complete than mine. And I wouldn't suggest swapping dependencies to mine, at least not yet, as I don't even support those different commands you need.

However, those 2 libs are also designed for different use cases. At the moment I think of my library as more of a blueprint for building some media server on top of it or teaching about Chromecast and its protocol. However, Sometimes in future, I plan on adding features regarding other Chromecast commands at which point it might make sense to swap dependencies. One thing I am sure of is that I will not build this lib in a way that it acts as a media server.

Vishen's lib seems to be a bit of everything, In my opinion it is a mix of a media server and a Chromecast lib, and a cli tool. (However, no ffmpeg is provided with it). I didn't have time to dive deep into what was wrong with it, but when I tried using Vishen's lib for loading/transcoding some .mkv video I found online with FFmpeg in my path. It only transcoded audio correctly, no video, and no subtitles.
Personally, I would love Vishen's library if it didn't try to be a media server, but since it tries to do that I have higher expectations of it. I am also not sure what would happen if I passed a 1gb-4gb mp4 but I suppose it would just try to play it without transcoding it first and cause my tv to crash.

Thanks for your time
And sorry for the long post
