As the title says really. I am using Jellyfin on a windows laptop and Firefox as my default browser.

When I try to get my media to stream to my chromecast dongle it keeps showing as Google cast unsupported. I know there is no problem with the laptop or the dongle, as using plex I am able to stream fine. I don't seem to be able to find any info online how to do this, can someone help clear this up for me please

I am not streaming via Windows so maybe this is not correct, but isn't Chromecast like that only working via Chrome? Unless something changed in the last years and Firefox is now also able to.

Interesting username by the way, or did you mixup username and password fields? ;)
