Chromecast Converter Stream any video to your Chromecast β even files it can't normally play. Chromecast only supports a handful of video formats, which means your MKV, AVI, WMV, and other files are stuck on your device. Chromecast Converter fixes that by converting your video to a Chromecast-compatible format on-device, then streaming it directly to your TV β all over your local Wi-Fi. How it works Point the app at a folder and it scans all your media files at once. Compatible files are ready to cast immediately. Incompatible ones are converted using your device's hardware video encoder β fast and efficient β then streamed. No cloud uploads. No subscription. No desktop required. - Files are sorted into ready-to-cast and needs-conversion groups - Convert one file or tap Convert All to batch-transcode in sequence - Cast any file directly from the scan view - Full playback controls: play/pause, seek Β±10 seconds, stop On-device everything Conversion uses your device's hardware accelerator for fast, battery-efficient transcoding. A built-in local server streams the result to your Chromecast over Wi-Fi β your video never leaves your network. Requires a Google Cast-compatible device on the same Wi-Fi network as your iPad.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Chromecast Converter at every 3 days against OpenSesame's weekly. OpenSesame's advantage is iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
