Issues enabling chromecast on brave browser

Hi all, I attempted to enable chromecast on my brave browser per this thread from a little over a year ago

Casting not working (Google Cast)

@MVC, Thanks for reaching out. Please remember to provide as much relevant data as possible when submitting support requests. The issue you’re encountering with casting has to do with flags that are disabled by default in Brave. Setting them appropriately allows casting functionality.

I enabled #load-media-router-component-extension.

Thank you!

Hi,

No need to access the flags anymore.
Brave has a setting for that:

So, as you have already enabled it, Chromecast should be activated.
In Brave menu, don’t you see “Cast…” just after “Print…”?
