From Pi My Life Up:
up your Raspberry Pi to act as a Chromecast device. While we can’t implement the same protocol that Chromecast relies on we can replicate this on the Raspberry Pi.
We replicate its behavior by using two key pieces of software on the Raspberry Pi. The first of these pieces of software is omxplayer. This software handles the video and audio files that are cast to our Raspberry Pi.
Our second piece of software is the OpenMax, Image viewer. We utilize this piece of software to handle images sent to the device.
