SMPlayer 18.9 provides an experimental feature to send videos from your computer to mobiles devices, like smartphones and tablets, in a very simple way.

All you have to do is open a video in SMPlayer and then select the option Cast to -> Smartphone/tablet within the Play menu.

SMPlayer will display a QR code which you can scan with your device. It provides the URL of the video which you can open with any media player in your device.

If you open the URL with an application such BubbleUPnP, LocalCast or similar, then you can cast the video to any device supported by that application, like Chromecast, TVs with DLNA support, Fire TV and so on.
