[RELEASE] cast-web v1.2.1 - Chromecast Integration (EDGE Driver discussion begins in post 1668)

Dennis · August 21, 2023, 2:48am

I have lost track of many times that I’ve already tried this systemd method but it has never fully worked - it starts the service after reboot but something stops it after a few minutes.

It appears as if pm2 is the troublemaker. I can’t even get it to list.

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ ~/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cast-web-api-cli/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2 list
bash: /home/pi/usr/local/lib/node_modules/cast-web-api-cli/node_modules/pm2/bin/pm2: No such file or directory

Edit: Another dumb mistake on my part. The command doesn’t need ~ when you specify the exact location of pm2, as I did. List output:

Edit #2: Updated pm2. List output:

** DRIVER UPDATE NOTICE **

Name: Google Cast V0.11
Version: 2023-08-20T18:18:08.341404914

I’ve made a couple enhancements to the driver at @Dennis 's request:

The number of presets has been increased to 30 in the Chromecast Manager device
Speaker devices now include the ability to bump the volume up or down via automations. This is implemented as simple push buttons not visible on the device Controls screen, but available to automations, Rules and API commands. The amount the volume is increased or decreased is configurable in the speaker device Settings screen.

These new options should be available on your devices once the driver is updated on your hub. You do not have to re-create your devices.

Thank you! Zigbee knob is inbound, ETA Sept. 5th - looking forward to testing it.

Chester_Knurek · September 18, 2023, 11:04pm

you rock dude

how to get more?

Dennis · September 19, 2023, 2:32pm

What are you looking for? Radio stations? Audio notification source URLs?

montyfert · September 27, 2023, 7:40pm

hi @TAustin i seem to be having a problem with speech synthesis ,
i have a sensor on the freezer , if the door is left open for a certain amount of time it tells the living room speaker to set volume to 50% speach systhesis to say the freezer is open,
its been running fine ( i had pi problems but they are sorted now ) today all i get is the pop sound when the speaker wakes ithink but no message , ive tried another routine with the same fridge to notify someone/play message on speaker and that works great .
i prefer the other way as i can set the volume etc any ideas would be great .
thanks
martin

I do see errors being returned by that device like this:

HTTP GET request to 192.168.0.107:3000 failed with code 500, status: HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error

I don’t know the cause if it. I can also see where the speech synch request was sent, but the speaker never sent an OK acknowledgement.

But later commands sent to that device seemed to have worked ok.

Can you play anything else on that speaker through the SmartThings device - like a preset station or a notification?

Just so I’m clear - this was something you did through the same SmartThings device/driver, or was that some other method?

Are you able to use speech synthesis on any other speaker?

You mentioned some issues with your Pi, and it reminds me that I had to modify the castwebapi software on my Pi to get speech synthesis to work. So my question to you is, did you have speech synthesis working prior to your Pi problems? If so, is there a chance maybe you reinstalled castwebapi and over-wrote any sw changes you might have made?

montyfert · September 28, 2023, 11:36am

Hi yes it was working before the pi problems , presets still work fine ,as well as eg-

But not the following .

I think i remember we had to change /replace tts json or something a while bavk but could have dreamed it .

Thanks martin

montyfert · September 28, 2023, 12:29pm

well ive sorted it with the help of your github ,

thanks

Hi i like to install this on my synology. Not family with the steps. Do anyone have the details how to do this? Thanks

TAustin · November 19, 2023, 6:26pm

Have you looked at the installation instructions HERE ?

You can also reference my README file here.

Kevin_Smith2 · November 19, 2023, 10:56pm

When I try to install casp-web-api-cli, i keep getting this in the log.
Since these mention grpc, I did the --unsafe-perm for the install. Nothing changed.

node /usr/local/lib/node_modules/cast-web-api-cli/node_modules/cast-web-api/api.js: symbol lookup error: /usr/local/lib/node_modules/cast-web-api-cli/node_modules/grpc/src/node/extension_binary/node-v108-linux-x64-glibc/grpc_node.node: undefined symbol: __wrap_memcpy

What OS are you on? I’m wondering if you are missing a required Node library.

thanks. Fedora 38

Hi @TAustin, thanks, yes i looked at the installation instructions, but i do not know how to install the package with synology. is there some basic guidelines to install this in synology? do i need to create a docker etc. i am not familar with the installation in synology… thanks

Hoodah77 · November 20, 2023, 8:03am

@Tin_Hwee_Wang I am successfully using this docker container for cast-web-api. I’m not running it on synology, but I imagine you could get it to work there.

TAustin · November 20, 2023, 6:57pm

A quick google search brought me to this thread: Can't install using pip on ubuntu 19.04 · Issue #22645 · grpc/grpc · GitHub

Seems to be related to a compiler option issue with grpc. You might try upgrading to Fedora 39 if you can to see if it fixes it.

TAustin · November 20, 2023, 7:14pm

Hopefully @Hoodah77 's reply is helpful to you, as I don’t know anything about a Synology box or what implications that may have on installing the cast-web-api app.

Tin_Hwee_Wang · November 20, 2023, 11:53pm

@Hoodah77, @TAustin , thanks that is helpful, will try to figure out how to install it with the above. appreciated.

Tin_Hwee_Wang · November 21, 2023, 2:45pm

@Hoodah77 and @TAustin , thanks, everything works perfect. i am able to run this on the synology docker
