        It seems that you have to enable that option.

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

        At least that worked here - Windows -.

          @zalex108 Are you in the US? 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 :<

            Ok,

            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.

              Sorry,
              The file is Local State.

              Use JSONEdit instead any Notepad.

                  @zalex108 No joy. I made the edits but they're overwritten upon re-opening the browser. Google wins again. Surprise, surprise 🙂

                    Overwrites the file?

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

                          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.
