Google Says They’re Sorry!

A Google spokesperson replied to the TechCrunch article that reported that the new SDK for Chromecast broke the ability to play local content through third party apps…

“We’re excited to bring more content to Chromecast and would like to support all types of apps, including those for local content. It’s still early days for the Google Cast SDK, which we just released in developer preview for early development and testing only. We expect that the SDK will continue to change before we launch out of developer preview, and want to provide a great experience for users and developers before making the SDK and additional apps more broadly available.”

So, one would hope that they will fix the problem soon. It IS a new product, after all.
