I'm not looking for Chromecast but I have a Linux system hooked up to a TV and ether net. I want a way to pick a YouTube or Amazon prime or Netflix video on my phone and display it on the TV via the Linux pc. Is that possible? If so what software can do it?

Perhaps, Fcast?

aside from it being the futo thing, I don't think it has an android sender and it was incompatible with anything I tried last time.

I'm using it to watch YouTube and Nubula videos cast from my GrapheneOS phone to my TV via an nVidia Shield.
