Can't cast from Chrome

Ekinn3 — Sat, 29 Apr 2023 12:05:05 GMT

I have 3 chromecasts and 2 devices that I cast from and none will let me cast from Google Chrome anymore, only from other apps (YouTube, etc) I hit the cast button and it starts to cast, but then immediately disconnects. This forces me to cast my entire screen, but then the video is all choppy

Hi Ekinn3,

Thanks for posting here in the Google Nest Community. A few questions: what Chromecast devices are you using? What are these two devices that you use for casting? When did it start? What steps have you taken?

Give the steps below a try and let me know how it goes:

If you’re using a Chrome browser app on a phone/tablet (which is not a cast-enabled app), use the particular app instead (as long as it’s cast-enabled).
You can install cast-enabled apps that have a built-in browser if you want to cast a particular website that has no app version yet.
If you’re using a laptop, click the 3 dots and choose Cast from the drop-down menu.
Reboot your TV and Wi-Fi router.
Reboot your casting devices and Chromecast devices.

Thanks,

Kimy
