OS: RetroPie 4.7 I want to use my Raspberry Pi as a Chromecast stick and followed this tutorial: https://www.instructables.com/Raspberry-Pi-As-Chromecast-Alternative-Raspicast/

When i enter the 'git clone' command git clone https://github.com/HaarigerHarald/omxiv the Pi asks me to enter my credentials for Github. However, that is not part of this tutorial or any others i found. Even if i log in with an existing acount the Pi refuses to download the repository, saying i dont have access to it.

Does anyone know how i can get it to download the github stuff?

  • odd - I don't get asked for credentials from github - you could just download the zip of course from github

    Note: this won't make your raspberry pi a chromecast device - so, it's not really "Google Chromecast on Raspbian" at all

Be sure to copy the exact link from the Github page - the way to use for a non-Github user should be HTTPS link provided there, as in this screenshot:

But as I answered the question, Raspicast don't work on my Raspberry 4, the Raspicast app to cast to your Raspberry Pi omxiv seems is not been maintained (at least at the moment).
