CastingConnection.RequestStartCastingAsync(CastingSource) Method

Definition

Starts the process of casting to a casting device. When called, this method pairs the c sting device, if necessary, and verifies access to the casting device with the user. If the user denies the app access to the device, casting fails. Otherwise, a connection is established, and content is sent to the device. During this time, the connection state changes to connecting, then to connected. If a casting source is set, the state changes to rendering once playback begins.
