This is a desktop casting client. It will not help you to 'cast' things to the speakers/display connected to an LE/Kodi HTPC.

No it's not only a desktop client also a console program

Are you planning to mainly SSH into LibreELEC, and start typing to cast your videos to a chromecast device?
I'm sure there are better/easier solutions for that.

Ehh.. Not via LibreELEC, as it has no chromecast support.

Why would you want to send stuff from LibreELEC? Surely you'd want to send stuff to LibreELEC?

Yes to hear music with libreelec from my htpc Outsider on the balkony without turning the Volumen to louad in the living room

I agree it would be a very nice feature to be able to send music to Chromecast Audio devices and groups, which is what mkchromecast appears to do using Python scripting.

I have CCA's throughout my house, to be able to select music in my library and play to groups from my HTPC would be great, even if the HTPC itself stayed silent during CCA play (to keep things simple).

Did you have a look at Snapcast, with the Snapserver and Snapclient addons?
