<![CDATA[Chromecast not working or referenced in Opera 50.0 on Mac]]>I'm on MacOS 10.13.2 and removed Opera fully, including all references in /Library/... and ~/Library/... I then did a fresh install and it's still the case that there is no Opera setting under Preferences - Browser - User interface that has anything to do with Chromecast, even though http://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2018/01/opera-50-introduces-anti-bitcoin-mining-tool/ says it's part of the new, production release. What gives?! I would love to ditch Chrome for Opera but can't without Chromecast support :<

There is a post on how to fix it, at least worked for the poster, search for "Cast" on the Forums, the fix is around a week ago.

Try again but then, mark the file as Read only.

I made the edits but they're overwritten upon re-opening the browser. Google wins again. Surprise, surprise 🙂

The file is Local State.

Use JSONEdit instead any Notepad.

Since I had to enable the option I thought it was related.

Then,
look at this, and read also the Sgunhouse's post.

To find the file:

  • OMenu > About Opera
    | And follow the path to the profile with any explorer.

I'm on Spain, so you can try es since Chromecast is enabled.

If that is not the file, ask to @leocg.

I browsed to opera://cast/#devices and got a "This site can't be reached" error. Sadly, that's consistent with the fact that the Search box in Preferences returns nothing when I search for Chromecast :<

  • Go to Settings and search it on the Search box.
    | You can test opera://cast/#devices too.

At least that worked here - Windows -.

Windows 10 (x64) | Anniversary Update
Opera Stable · Beta · Developer

Opera Test profile | Opera Reset / Back up Linux · Mac · Win

If so, can you find out and give a definitive answer about whether or not Chromecast is supported by Opera 50.0 in the US? It seems really poor form to advertise it as supporting Chromecast if that's not true for a big piece of the user base...
