Hi @kennykaye . Thanks for the report. The problem is in line 41 of cast.py. After researching a bit about the limitations of socket.gethostbyname(socket.gethostname()), and given that Before creating an app for you to test, would you let me know if your Mac hardware is newer or older than 2011?. Thanks. |

* master: (30 commits) Minimal change to preferences window's geometry. In this commit: - Reset to default in preferences. Closes #6. - New write_defaults split in class config_manager at mkchromecast/config.py. - verify_config was renamed to chk_config. - socket.gaierror I verified is over. Closes #5. Some refactoring.
