One extension, three useful actions

A focused tool for compatible, openly accessible web video.

Detect videos in your tab

Open the extension on a compatible webpage to find direct MP4, WebM, and HLS video streams.

Preview or download

Check a detected video before saving supported direct MP4 and WebM files to your computer.

Cast to your TV

Send compatible web videos to Chromecast, Google TV, and other Google Cast receivers.

How it works

From browser tab to TV in three steps

CastBrowser analyzes the active tab only when you use the extension, then presents the compatible media it finds.

  1. 1

    Open a webpage containing a compatible, non-DRM video.

  2. 2

    Select the CastBrowser icon in your Chrome toolbar.

  3. 3

    Preview, download, or choose a Google Cast device to watch on TV.

Designed for compatible, non-protected video

Protected or DRM-encrypted services are not supported, including YouTube and major subscription streaming platforms. Downloading is available for supported direct MP4 and WebM files; HLS streams can be detected for compatible playback and casting. Only download media you own or have permission to save.

Want to cast from your phone too?

Get the CastBrowser mobile app for Android or iPhone to browse and cast compatible videos from your phone.
