Show static webpage on ChromeCast

I was browsing the ChromeCast SDK and it all seems pretty manageable.

The only unfortunate thing I've seen is that it seems to be intended only for casting video, audio or images. You can send a URL, but the URL must be specified for one of the above types.

I wrote the HTML5 toolbar to display my application, which is being updated using AJAX, and I would like to launch the control panel using ChromeCast. This will mean ChromeCast is signaling that an external URL is accessible via the Internet, and then ChromeCast will download the URL (preferably without a browser history).

In short, I would like to click the ChromeCast button, select the ChromeCast device, and then the device will download a URL such as “ http://www.google.com ” and my TV will simply display the Google homepage.

I'm not worried about scrolling, scaling, or any interactivity ... it's literally a bunch of analytics that updates as needed.

You want a custom receiver. They allow you to simply load a web page instead of using the default players.
