<Update label="2026-07-16" tags={["Stream","(Improvement)"]}>
We've just updated the Bunny player with a rebuilt Chromecast experience. Casting now supports eDRM (Widevine-protected) videos, closing a long-standing gap versus the legacy player.
The TV experience feels native, with the video title and thumbnail on screen and player colors and captions appearance (color, font, size, language) synced from the embed.
Viewers keep full playback control while casting — audio track selection works before and during a session, and playback rate changes apply on the TV. Session handling is seamless too: playback continues from the current position when casting starts and transfers back on stop, with page reloads, replays after the video ends with a smoother experience overall.

Seamless Domain Migration now supports HTTP (file-based) validation alongside the existing DNS (TXT record) method for issuing SSL certificates before pointing your domain to bunny.net. Choose DNS if you control your domain's DNS records, or HTTP if you can place a challenge file on the server your domain currently points to. Learn more
