6. Discovery
7. Media Router mMediaRouter = MediaRouter.getInstance(getApplicationContext()); @Override protected void onStart() { super.onStart(); mMediaRouter.addCallback(mMediaRouteSelector, mMediaRouterCallback, MediaRouter.CALLBACK_FLAG_PERFORM_ACTIVE_SCAN); } @Override protected void onStop() { disconnectApiClient(); mMediaRouter.removeCallback(mMediaRouterCallback); super.onStop(); }
8. Route selector
9. Route selector mMediaRouteSelector = new MediaRouteSelector.Builder() .addControlCategory(CastMediaControlIntent.categoryForCast(APP_ID)) .build(); // These are the framework-supported intents .addControlCategory(MediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_LIVE_AUDIO) .addControlCategory(MediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_LIVE_VIDEO) .addControlCategory(MediaControlIntent.CATEGORY_REMOTE_PLAYBACK)
10. Cast button: ActionBar <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" > <item android:id="@+id/media_route_menu_item" android:title="@string/media_route_menu_title" app:actionProviderClass="android.support.v7.app.MediaRouteActionProvider" app:showAsAction="always" /> </menu>
11. Add the selector to the ActionProvider @Override public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) { super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu); … // Attach the MediaRouteSelector to the menu item MenuItem mediaRouteMenuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.media_route_menu_item); MediaRouteActionProvider mediaRouteActionProvider= (MediaRouteActionProvider) MenuItemCompat.getActionProvider(mediaRouteMenuItem); mediaRouteActionProvider.setRouteSelector(mSelector); … }
12. Cast button: MediaRouteButton * To use the media route button, the activity must be a subclass of * {@link FragmentActivity} from the <code>android.support.v4</code> * support library. Refer to support library documentation for details. * </p> * * @see MediaRouteActionProvider * @see #setRouteSelector */ public class MediaRouteButton extends View {

14. The callback, yet another one private class MediaRouterCallback extends MediaRouter.Callback { @Override public void onRouteSelected(MediaRouter router, RouteInfo route) { CastDevice device = CastDevice.getFromBundle(route.getExtras()); connectApiClient(); } @Override public void onRouteUnselected(MediaRouter router, RouteInfo route) { disconnectApiClient(); leaveGame(); resetUI(); }
15. Connection private void connectApiClient() { Cast.CastOptions apiOptions = Cast.CastOptions.builder(mSelectedDevice, mCastListener) .build(); mApiClient = new GoogleApiClient.Builder(this) .addApi(Cast.API, apiOptions) .addConnectionCallbacks(mConnectionCallbacks) .addOnConnectionFailedListener(mConnectionFailedListener) .build(); mApiClient.connect(); }

Connection private class ConnectionCallbacks implements GoogleApiClient.ConnectionCallbacks { @Override public void onConnectionSuspended(int cause) { Log.d(TAG, "ConnectionCallbacks.onConnectionSuspended"); } @Override public void onConnected(Bundle connectionHint) { Log.d(TAG, "ConnectionCallbacks.onConnected"); Cast.CastApi.launchApplication(mApiClient, APP_ID).setResultCallback( new ConnectionResultCallback()); } }
17. Connection private final class ConnectionResultCallback implements ResultCallback<ApplicationConnectionResult> { @Override public void onResult(ApplicationConnectionResult result) { Status status = result.getStatus(); ApplicationMetadata appMetaData = result.getApplicationMetadata(); if (status.isSuccess()) { mJoinGameButton.setEnabled(true); Cast.CastApi.setMessageReceivedCallbacks(mApiClient, mGameChannel.getNamespace(), mGameChannel); } else { mJoinGameButton.setEnabled(false); } } }

19. Tic-Tac-Toe: Movement information public final void move(GoogleApiClient apiClient, int row, int column) { Log.d(TAG, "move: row:" + row + " column:" + column); try { JSONObject payload = new JSONObject(); payload.put(KEY_COMMAND, KEY_MOVE); payload.put(KEY_ROW, row); payload.put(KEY_COLUMN, column); sendMessage(apiClient, payload.toString()); } catch (JSONException e) { Log.e(TAG, "Cannot create object to send a move", e); } }
20. Tic-Tac-Toe: Sending information private final void sendMessage(GoogleApiClient apiClient, String message){ Log.d(TAG, "Sending message: (ns=" + GAME_NAMESPACE + ") " + message); Cast.CastApi.sendMessage(apiClient, GAME_NAMESPACE, message) .setResultCallback( new SendMessageResultCallback(message)); } private final class SendMessageResultCallback implements ResultCallback<Status> { .... @Override public void onResult(Status result) { if (!result.isSuccess()) { Log.d(TAG, "Failed to send message. statusCode: " + result.getStatusCode() + " message: " + mMessage); } } }
21. Tic-Tac-Toe: Receiver load function onLoad() { var canvas = document.getElementById("board"); var context = canvas.getContext("2d"); var mBoard = new board(context); var favIcon = document.getElementById("favIcon"); mBoard.clear(); mBoard.drawGrid(); window.gameEngine = new cast.TicTacToe(mBoard); }
22. Tic-Tac-Toe: Receiver message onMessage: function(event) { ... if (message.command == 'join') { this.onJoin(senderId, message); } else if (message.command == 'leave') { this.onLeave(senderId); } else if (message.command == 'move') { this.onMove(senderId, message); } else if (message.command == 'board_layout_request') { this.onBoardLayoutRequest(senderId); } else { console.log('Invalid message command: ' + message.command); } },

31. Tip: Host in Google Drive
32. Cast Companion Library https://github.com/googlecast/CastCompanionLibrary-android mCastMgr = VideoCastManager.initialize(context, BuildConfig.CAST_APP_ID, null, null); if (BuildConfig.DEBUG) { mCastMgr.enableFeatures(VideoCastManager.FEATURE_NOTIFICATION | VideoCastManager.FEATURE_LOCKSCREEN | VideoCastManager.FEATURE_DEBUGGING); } else { mCastMgr.enableFeatures(VideoCastManager.FEATURE_NOTIFICATION | VideoCastManager.FEATURE_LOCKSCREEN); }
33. Callbacks, remember? @Override public void onApplicationConnected(ApplicationMetadata appMetadata, String sessionId, boolean wasLaunched) { if (mPlaybackState == PlaybackState.PLAYING) { notifyPauseToListeners(); try { notifyRemoteLoadToListeners(); } catch (Exception e) { notifyExceptionToListeners(e); } } updatePlaybackLocation(PlaybackLocation.REMOTE); }
34. Callbacks, remember? @Override public void onApplicationDisconnected(int errorCode) { updatePlaybackLocation(PlaybackLocation.LOCAL); } @Override public void onDisconnected() { mPlaybackState = PlaybackState.PAUSED; mLocation = PlaybackLocation.LOCAL; } @Override public void onRemoteMediaPlayerMetadataUpdated() { mRemoteMediaInformation = castManager.getRemoteMediaInformation(); }
35. Receiver: MediaInfo public void createMediaInfo(String title, String description, String author, String streamUrl, String mediaType, int streamType) { MediaMetadata metadata = new MediaMetadata(MediaMetadata.MEDIA_TYPE_MOVIE); metadata.putString(MediaMetadata.KEY_SUBTITLE, description); metadata.putString(MediaMetadata.KEY_TITLE, title); metadata.putString(MediaMetadata.KEY_STUDIO, author); metadata.addImage(new WebImage(Uri.parse(imageUrl))); mSelectedMedia = new MediaInfo.Builder(streamUrl) .setStreamType(streamType) .setContentType(mediaType) .setMetadata(metadata) .build(); } MediaInfo.STREAM_TYPE_LIVE MediaInfo.STREAM_TYPE_BUFFERED "application/x-mpegURL" "video/mp4"

37. Cast Activity getCastManager().startCastControllerActivity( this, mSelectedMedia, position, true);
38. Tip: Make Cast button always available
