Home Assistant Community Add-on: AirCast

AirPlay capabilities for your Chromecast players.

About

Apple devices use AirPlay to send audio to other devices, but this is not compatible with Google's Chromecast. This add-on tries to solve this compatibility gap.

It detects Chromecast players in your network and creates virtual AirPlay devices for each of them. It acts as a bridge between the AirPlay client and the real Chromecast player.
