Can you cast to a chromecast from JRiver server. chromecast does not appear in list. if it is  not supported are there plans to support in future versions

2nd question
casting from gizmo but is hit or miss. sometimes it cast on the first time i select the chromecast other times i have to connect then disconnect multiple times to get it to work. once it does cast the music continues to plays on my android phone. the music on my phone and the music being cast are extremely out of sync. help on what i am doing wrong would be appreciated.

No I don't believe it is supported.

If you want to stand up a BubbleUPnP Server somewhere on your network then you can attach it to the Chromecast and it will be available as a DLNA device on MC.

You can cast to Chromecast using JRemote2, which of course would be connected to the MC Server.
