I always have a hell of a time, is it just me?

    Used to be able to do this before they made you consent to sharing your data for ad purposes. I use a chromecast and a NAS. No issues so far.

        You need an app on your phone that “flings” the content from the NAS, so a media server like Jellyfin.

        My bad, i was unclear. I don’t think chromecast can source NAS. In my experience you can stream to chromecast via a device player, like VLC.

        WebOS can also play files direct from a NAS though, but that obviously involves downloading in full to the NAS before playing.
