Uses the pychromecast library, big thanks to the authors!

Thanks for this neat little app. Is the code available for this (e.g. on GitHub)? I was hoping to make a pull request to propose some fixes, but I I'm not able to find it anywhere.

Installed python3-base. Same error. /usr/share/Cast/python/__init__.py is 0 bytes. Is that correct?

Cannot install, error about python 3.7. Should I install a separate package?

Maybe you do not have python3 installed? The update that I just uploaded includes python3 as a requirement.
Alternatively, you can run "pkcon install python3-base" as root.

Thanks for your feedback. I suspect you're missing some dependencies.
Could you try to run the app from the terminal (with "sailfish-qml Cast"), and post the output?

Ok, more dependencies missing. Let's make pip take care of that. As root: "python3 -m pip install pychromecast".
