No, I don’t believe so.

it’s a dependency, why the binding isn’t just update ?
there are things I don’t understand with openhab
Because it doesn’t work that way. Releases use the binding version that was built with the release. Of course you could try uninstalling the binding, then downloading the latest version of the binding into the addons directory. But then you might need to resolve the 3rd party library dependencies yourself (by also downloading those to addons). But, if the third party library is not OSGI-wrapped, then there’s even more fiddling involved. This is why I made the decision a long time ago to run snapshots, but this approach is not for everyone as it involves some risk…
Same error here…
Could not resolve type id ‘MULTIZONE_STATUS’ into a subtype of…
I tried very hard to get into git, maven and openhab manuel instllation to get the new api running without waiting for a new release. Unitl now with no success.
Here are my steps. Perhaps anyone can find my mistake:
1.) Uninstall the regular chromecast binding within the paperUI
2.) log into the machine on with openhab is installed
3.) create folder in the home dir and clone then api-dir
git clone GitHub - vitalidze/chromecast-java-api-v2: Java implementation of ChromeCast V2 protocol client
4.) change into the cloned dir
5.) edit pom.xml and add the folloning lines:
<dependency> <groupId>su.litvak.chromecast</groupId> <artifactId>api-v2</artifactId> <version>0.11.1</version> </dependency>
6.) Compile the api => sucessful api-v2-0.11.2-SNAPSHOT.jar in the target dir
mvn compile
7.) create new dir for addons and clone then addons from git
8.) change to the chromecast binding dir
./openhab2-addons/bundles/org.openhab.binding.chromecast/
9.) edit the pom.xml and add these lines
<dependency> <groupId>su.litvak.chromecast</groupId> <artifactId>api-v2</artifactId> <version>0.11.2-SNAPSHOT</version> <scope>system</scope> <systemPath>$path_to_the_builted api/api-v2-0.11.2-SNAPSHOT.jar</systemPath> </dependency>
10.) build the chromecast buinding => sucessfull org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
11.) copy then org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar to the addon dir
In my case /usr/share/openhab2/addons
(I also tried to copy then api-v2-0.11.2-SNAPSHOT.jar into the same dir)
12.) change own and the rights of the file
13.) restart openhab
sudo systemctl restart openhab2.service
Unfortunately I receive the following error:
Could not resolve module: org.openhab.binding.chromecast [238] Unresolved requirement: Import-Package: su.litvak.chromecast.api.v2; version="[0.11.0,1.0.0)
Does anyone find the mistake?
what command to build? (for point 10.)
This command:
Hi,
Meanwhile, is there a way not to log the exceptions? I tried with
log:set ERROR openhab-binding-chromecast
but I’m still logging them.
Thanks.
may be try in org.ops4j.pax.logging.cfg , before log enhancement line put :
log enhancement
log4j2.appender.out.filter.chromecast.type = RegexFilter
log4j2.appender.out.filter.chromecast.regex = .* litvak.*
log4j2.appender.out.filter.chromecast.onMatch = DENY
log4j2.appender.out.filter.chromecast.onMisMatch = ACCEPT
But need confirmation , because not sure
I understand your frustration, I feel the same way. In the past, I was always able to wait for a new release of openhab, but these days it might take a long time before that happens (latest stable 2.4.0 is from Dec 17, 2018), and running the latest binding yourself is pretty complex, as Mark explains nicely.
As a solution or work-around I’ve started using node-red plugins where possible, as all of my rules are inside Node-RED instead of OpenHAB.
I’ve build a new version of the binding with the fix:
org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
Maybe you can see if it fixes the issue?
You can also update the binding on the console using:
openhab> bundle:list | grep Chromecast
213 │ Active │ 80 │ 2.5.0.201910030417 │ openHAB Add-ons :: Bundles :: Chromecast Binding
openhab> bundle:update 213 https://github.com/wborn/openhab2-addons/releases/download/chromecast-multizone-status-tag/org.openhab.binding.chromecast-2.5.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
openhab> bundle:list | grep Chromecast
213 │ Active │ 80 │ 2.5.0.201910031158 │ openHAB Add-ons :: Bundles :: Chromecast Binding
Make sure you update 213 to the correct bundle ID you see for your own openHAB instance because if you update the wrong bundle OH might stop working! 
New bonding is on 2.5.0 Milestone openhabian or only 2.5.0 snapshot openhabian ?
It’s build using the code from the latest master. I gave it a brief test and it works with the M3 and recent snapshot builds.
Ok thank you because I am on openhabian 2.4 , so I need to upgrade to M3 ?
It doesn’t work easily with 2.4.0 @Fiftiz because it also depends on Jackson which was only added as a feature in openHAB 2.5.0:

openhab> bundle:start 198

I have now trouble with chromecast volume.
When i stream music from iphone app (spotify) and change volume from mobile, than the volume will loop.
Also sometimes when I change the volume from openahb and play chromecast from the mobile app spotify.

Hi @Fiftiz,
I have no “#log enhancement” line. I added it before the “# OSGi appender” line, but I’m still logging the exceptions.
Hi Wouter…
I just downloaded the .jar today. Wen I manually install the .jar in the addons folder, I get this error:

I´m using openhabian hasslefree openhab 2.5M2.
EDIT: I dont see jackson.annotation beeing part of openhab 2.5 anywhere like you mention a few post back?
