Protocol stack

I think this operates on top of the Internet Protocol, typicially wifi? That's not clear from the article. -- Beland (talk) 19:13, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't seen a reliable source that explicitly confirms this. Barte (talk) 22:46, 9 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Shared queue removal

Can we put something in this article about the removed shared queue functionality, ie when it happened and the consequences? It severely reduced the functionality of the Chromecast. Theducks (talk) 12:19, 7 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Improve Overview

As it stands, the overview seems a bit difficult to understand in my opinion. This won't fully solve the problem, but I suggest removing(or moving to later in the article) the following section "branded for consumer devices as Chromecast built-in,[1]". Removing it makes the first sentence much cleaner and clearer, and explains what Google cast is better, imo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by QuantumWasp (talkcontribs) 01:55, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Follow-up: Another improvement would be to have a hyperlink to Chromecast earlier on in the article, as the 2 are very tightly related, and some people may be looking for ChromeCast instead(as happened to me). QuantumWasp (talk) 02:03, 21 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
