+A Chromecast media streamer for Linux.
+Stream2Chromecast casts audio and video files to a Chromecast device
+from Linux. It can also transcode any unsupported files in real time
+and play them on the Chromecast. It is written in Python 2.7 and uses
+either ffmpeg or avconv for transcoding.
+
+Transcoding depends on ffmpeg with aac support, which is not currently
+enabled, so this won't work out of the box.
