Massive Problems with Casting the last 2 Weeks

Volca — Thu, 23 Dec 2021 09:26:57 GMT

I have encountered very different problems in the past 2 weeks. It feels like Chromvast got an update which made the service worse.

1. How can Netflix no longer stream from the browser (Chrome current version) to our Google TV projector with Chromecast integrated. The corresponding icon does not appear in the bar in Netflix

2. The Chromecast Ultra in the bedroom suddenly showed yesterday that it would like to be set up again. When we restarted the chrome guest, everything went again.

3. If we stream YouTube from the Chromecast (regardless of whether it is Ultra or TV), the connection is always interrupted after about 10 minutes for no reason whatsoever.

Reboot the Chromecast device - unplug it from the main power grid for about 5 minutes then plug it back in.

Its not only the Chromcast its also the Google TV Beamer with integrated Chromecast and the Chrome Browser. There is a main issue with the Streaming Service from Googles side. they have to improve that

It may a zonal problem or a network issue, because my Chromecast with Google TV is working flawlessly.

Try to reboot your router/routers also.

Deinstalled the built in Chromecast from the Beamer (no possibilty to update) and re-installed it. Now I can stream youtube from the chrome brower again but not Netflix.

If you stream from the phone's Netflix application, it works?

If you open Netflix application directly on Chromecast with Google TV, it works?

Link your Netflix account with Google Home application and try again.
