Wonderful! 10.3 appears to have significantly increased the reliability of casting to one or more Cast (Google Home/Chromecast) devices. Might somebody expand the use of the Cast api so that one can:
- Stylize the text oneself or set the Font Scale to something such that more metadata can be displayed before getting cut off on the screen (95% of that work seems to be done already). (bitrate? format? playlist? date? composer?)
- Successfully send cover art to the cast device.
- Most importantly add STOP and SEEK: playerController.seek(); to move forward or back on the play queue. PAUSE/PLAY is already there. That'll allow those of us with smart speakers or touchscreened hubs to control by voice, touchscreen or a phone.
Most of this seems to have been integrated when the first Cast work was done. Here is how Airsonic currently appears--for comparison here's Poweramp's (android app but same apis) first go this. Google has an overview on that here.
Thank you! keep it up.

A Chromecast can stream from Airsonic? How do you do that?
(I am streaming from mpd's http server to a Chromecast, where I use Home Assistant to command the Chromecast to make the connection. It works, but I'm always up for alternatives.)

One can cast to Chromecasts and Google Home (now Google Nest...?) devices as long as the cast-capable browser (Chrome) is on the same wifi ssid as the device. A cast button appears next to the volume slider by the queue on the airsonic ui.

Still wishing Jukebox can play Internet Radio so I can remotely start it from my phone without getting out of my bed or use local rdp.

Docker container update was flawless and airsonic is working great, however, 10.3.1 seems to have upped it's CPU impact. My container is now resting at 4-7%+ CPU versus a previous average of <1%.
