Looking for keyboard shortcuts or a script that will open the Cast menu on my Chrome browser. Can I create a custom shortcut? 

 
I want to have the same functionality as clicking the Google Cast extension icon in your tool bar, but from the keyboard.
 
Thank you for all feedback

Not sure there is a way to configure a keyboard shortcut unfortunately, but you can pin it to the toolbar to make it quicker to access:
  1. In the upper right corner of Chrome browser, click the Chrome Settings menu Cast... 
  2. The Cast button  will temporarily appear in your toolbar. To keep it there permanently, right-click on the Cast button  and click Always show icon.
