[Feature] YouTube auto-play

[kaushik1618]

Thank you for creating this application, worked perfectly on my C.H.I.P. setup. One feature that I wish it had is the YouTube auto-play feature where the next suggested video/audio plays automatically.

I see the auto-play feature is enabled on my YouTube app but it disappears when I'm casting to plaincast. Is this supposed to work already? What am I missing?

I suspect this is something the web application provides, not something special in the protocol. Remember that it emulates the web application (the Smart TV app is just a web application), and implementing all of that is a lot of work.

I'm not currently working much on it. If you want to try working on it, you can take a look how YouTube TV (https://www.youtube.com/tv) does it. All messages between the server and the client are visible in the Developer Tools in Chrome, but can be hard to decipher (it took me quite a while until I finally figured it out).
