### Card Casting
|
||||
|
||||
A dashboard with the card can be cast onto a suitable device (such as the Nest Hub shown below).

### Casting the Card
|
||||
|
||||
This card can be (Chrome) casted to a device (such as a [Nest Hub](https://store.google.com/us/product/nest_hub_2nd_gen)) through the use of [Home Assistant Cast](https://cast.home-assistant.io/).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Limitations
|
||||
|
||||
Casting Home Assistant dashboards comes with a number of caveats:
|
||||
|
||||
* Home Assistant Casting does not support the HA `streaming` component ([source](https://cast.home-assistant.io/faq.html)). This means clips playing and the `ha` live provider can not work. Other live providers such as `jsmpeg` and `webrtc-card` function correctly.
|
||||
* The Javascript fullscreen API does not work (so the fullscreen button does not work, but see below for an equivalent).
|
||||
|
||||
#### Recommended configuration for a Nest Hub
|
||||
|
||||
Using a `panel` dashboard with the following base configuration will result in the card consuming the entire device screen:
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
type: custom:frigate-card
|
||||
cameras:
|
||||
- camera_entity: camera.front_door
|
||||
live_provider: frigate-jsmpeg
|
||||
dimensions:
|
||||
aspect_ratio: 1024:600
|
||||
aspect_ratio_mode: static
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
See [screenshot above](#screenshots-card-casting).
