Have been having a play with Desktop Mode in EMUI 9 and it seems good, however, I have been connecting this directly to my TV (smart), but would like to know how I could do the same to a Chromecast device, when my other TV's are not smart and could not be connected to
Look in your quick menu icons - when you pull down - there should be one labeled Cast. That should give you a selection of the Chromecast devices you have running. Chose one and you're casting.
Cannot see my Chromecast, below is what I get

Chromecast only supports certain apps, it won't mirror over everything so it's probably not compatible with desktop mode.
The TV is probably using a variation of Miracast which can screen mirror anything. Roku and Samsungs smart switch are miracast based and so are the TVs that support their tech.
its not wireless but i own the microsoft 500 dock and it works flawless with desktop mode and even charges the phone.
