This is probably a ridiculous question, but I usually stream from my laptop to my LG tv or my phone to any other tv, and I find that using my VPN keeps the casting output option from working. Like in Popcorntime, the Watch Now doesn't show my tv, only the laptop app or VLC. On my daughter's fire stick I can't even cast to it unless I turn my VPN off.

I don't have any problem streaming Plex or Emby from my laptop to the tv. Is there a way to cast without compromising my privacy?

Someone who puts out publicly that which should be behind walls. But it turns out its not so private after all...

It’s a public GitHub repo, there was nothing private about anything there
