Chromecast and V.J.

Just installed a Chromecast device on my TV, along with the requisite Google Cast extension for my MacBook Pro's Chrome browser.  Since my primary purpose was to play YouTube music videos, I cranked up one of my favorites for a test, Valerie June's year-old recording at the Seattle KEXP (a great public radio station, by the way) studio:


The video quality was excellent on the HDTV, even though I only used the middling quality option in the Google Cast settings.  The audio, likewise, was decent, running through an attached ZVOK.

I'm not so interested anymore in watching vids like this on tiny screens. At least use good headphones.
