Free video software to play & stream DivX (AVI) & DivX Plus HD (MKV) video
Chromecast will start searching for available devices. However, be notified that your Mac and your Chromecast device must be connected to the same Wifi network for all of this to work. Moreover, Chromecast only connects to 2.4GHz Wi-Fi, so if your Mac is connected to a 5GHz network, you will not be able to find the Chromecast.
Chromecast devices allow you to play various types of content on your TV directly from Google Chrome, without having to tangle yourself in a forest of cables.They are plugged into the target device and communicate with your Mac via Wi-Fi. While Apple's AirPlay is a great way to connect your iPhone, iPad and Mac to your TV for wireless playback, it isn't the only option available. Google offers Chromecast, a budget-friendly.

SubscribeIs Mac OS X no longer supported by chromecast? My girlfriend and I recently decided to get a chromecast, as we had a good deal on one. She owns a 2012 MacBook Pro (which is the computer we planned on using it with).
It can be a wonderful PDF reader as well because it has features like Night Mode, Full screen, Rotation etc.Download Xodo PDF Reader & Editor: Cisdem PDF Converter OCR For Mac. As the name suggests this software isn't completely a text editor, rather it is a PDF files converter. Best editing program for mac.

I installed Kodi and I can play movies on my computer, it's great!!!!
But I don't want to watch on my laptop or desktop. I want it on my 70' TV. So, husband did his research (so he said) and bought a CHROMECAST. I followed all the instructions but where everyone say: click the 'PLAY USING.' and select the CHROMECAST device. Well I don't even get the PLAY USING. I only get 'PLAY FROM HERE'. I tried everything but I am getting the sick feeling that there is nothing to get the darn Kodi movie to cast to my TV with the audio. I read that I needed to install BUBBLEUPnP but it doesn't look like it's for mac computers. Maybe there is something like BUBBLEUPnP that is for mac??
What I want to do:
Open Kodi and cast the movie to my chromecast device.
If it can't be done, can a laptop be connected to the TV (please tell me the wires I would need) and play the Kodi movies that way?
When you have a MAC, which a lot of people have, how do you play the Kodi movies to the TV?
Before anybody ask:
- YES, the chromecast device works fine I can cast from my iphone on it and play youtube just fine.
- No, I don't have a windows computer, I am a MAC GIRL all the way ;-)
- No, I don't have an Android phone, I am a MAC GIRL all the way ;-)
My information:
KODI 15.2
Macbook
OS 10.7.5
2 GHz Intel core 2 duo
4GB Ram
As you said - you are a Mac Girl. Sadly Chromecast is a google product and i have no clue where it is stated that you can cast to it from Kodi (if i am not in the wrong universe today this is simply not possible).

Hi, thanks for the great info. But, it says 'Beamer 3.0 requires OS X Yosemite (10.10) or later.' and I have 'OS 10.7.5'. I have no idea how to upgrade to 10.10. I don't want to buy an OS system right now. If I were able to figure out how to get to 10.10 free I read about beamer and it says 'drag and drop movies in the beamer app'. Not sure how I would drop the movie from Kodi in the beamer app, it's not a video file, it's the kodi software that is playing the movie.
UPDATE: I emailed the Beamer App company and they said 'Beamer only supports common video files and does not support any type of streaming sites or services'. Just posting the information sot hat other people do not go down the road of beamer for Kodi. But, I do appreciate the help and suggestion.
I really wish that the Kodi software would have a built-in casting option. It should be in the app since they have to know that people will want to cast things to the TV.

Well, my husband said people use that google cast chromecast device to cast from Kodi. There is plenty of videos on youtube showing it. But, they all talk about something like BUBBLEUpNP or orther little software like it. But, the husband didn't look before buying that it would work on Mac, he just assumed that if it worked on windows it would work on a mac. He didn't look to see if the BUBBLEUpNP was available for Mac, and it's not.
As for cables, here's the pic of my laptop port, what would you suggest?

correct, it is the mini display port.
Thanks for all the help, you guys are great!
It all got too messy in the end with cables everywhere and loud fans noises, that I just went out and bought a RPi2 and a cheap usb HDD. Silence then, and Kodi can be controlled from any HDMI CEC compatible TV, with the TV remote.
hw decode via videotoolbox should work, I was using those cpu class macbooks/macmini when I created the videotoobox codec.

That would require an additional VGA to HDMI converter, or a TV with VGA in, along with an additional audio cable.
