• PLaylist-manager: Should allow adding/removing and moving of local files and network streams
• Code cleanup and documentation. Code is extremely clubbered. So far I have no comments Still no comments but code is way better organized now. Right now I'm happy with it)
• Support subtitles: Pychromecast so far does not allow to play streams with subtitles -> this might be hard to implement (Waiting for my pull request to be included in pychromecast, don't want to implement this here)
• Allow seeking in local files (it's possible for mp4 mp3 files, but not flac files. This happens because flac handles streaming differently)
• Play files locally if not connected to a chromecast? (ffplay xdg-open?)
• Get metadata from network streams. (Possible with youtube-dl?) (Not doable)

Gives following error even though I have installed pychromecast.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./player.py", line 32, in <module>
    import pychromecast as pyc
ImportError: No module named 'pychromecast'

It would be great to have a Styled Media Receiver instead of the generic lloking DefaultMediaReceiver.

Should be relatively straightforward to implement (since pychromecast supports this) but requires to registrate my app with google.

So far the playlist is generated on sender side by just playing on track after another. It would be cooler if the queuing was done on the chromecast itself, by using QueueItem requests.
