"Ace Cast" userscript allows to watch videos from popular sites in your favorite desktop players and other home devices which support such technologies as Ace Cast, AirPlay, Google Cast etc.

This solution includes P2P-accelerator feature which provides maximum stability level of broadcasts all over the world!

The maximum stability level of broadcasts is achieved through Ace Stream P2P technology, which allows simultaneous receiving data from different sources (from the servers of the service itself and from other users). It's impossible to achieve this with standard technologies (unicast) which are used on sites/services and which allows receiving data only from one source (from server). And accordingly - with this feature, your viewing of the broadcasts will always be more comfortable and better than viewing the broadcast directly, without using this feature.

The more users will enable this P2P feature, the more stable broadcasts will be!

The list of supported sites/services:

  • vk.com
  • twitch.tv
  • youtube.com
  • livestream.com
  • ustream.tv

This list will be extended as you will actively use Ace Cast!

Attention! You may see some errors when trying to watch video with Ace Cast.
Here is the description of some common errors:

  • "Content is unavailable" - the content is not available for viewing in the external player
  • "generic_error" - failed to connect to the service. You should just try again in this situation.
