I saw this on github: GitHub - digital-cowboy-91/mopidy-yt-cast-receiver · GitHub
Seems like a great idea to me, but I couldn’t get it working. So I had a go at making a similar thing, but as a proper mopidy front end: GitHub - natumbri/mopidy-dial: DIAL (Discovery and Launch) endpoint for mopidy · GitHub
It is very work in progress, but you can currently pair the YouTube android app using the ‘TV Code’ pairing method (the pairing code is displayed by mopidy’s http server) and get a video into the mopidy tracklist by clicking on it.
I think the rest of the implementation will be fairly trivial, and will include:
- properly mapping YT commands to mopidy commands
- adding support for the YT Music App
- adding automatic pairing for both apps using SSDP
