Halogen Player features:
- Cast videos to multiple Chromecast or Roku devices at once
- Cast videos to nearby friends and watch together, even if you aren't on Wi-Fi
- Watch videos locally on your device
- Watch on your device, cast to Chromecast and Roku, and cast to friends all at the same time
Things you can do:
- Traveling by plane / train / etc. with friends or family? Watch a video together across multiple phones / tablets, no Wi-Fi needed.
- Need to leave the room while casting? No need to pause, just continue watching on your phone without interrupting the casting.
- Want to play the same video on multiple TVs? Halogen can cast to multiple Chromecast and Roku devices at the same time.
More info:
- Videos can be files on your device, or they can come from a DLNA (UPnP) media server on your Wi-Fi network.
- Subtitle support includes SRT, SSA, and VTT.
- Video format support includes MP4, MKV, AVI, FLV, and more.
- Audio transcoding is supported, so encodings like DTS and AC3 will work even if the Chromecast / Roku device doesn't support it.
- Video codec support is dependent on the device. Some Roku or Chromecast devices won't support certain codecs. H264 video is usually a safe choice!
