I selected sign in and followed the instructions on screen. Fixed! Simple when you know how!</P><P>Cheers,</P><P>Jon.</P> Mon, 03 Jan 2022 20:50:51 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/YouTube-on-Chromecast-stops-playing-with-message-quot-Sign-in-for-the-best/m-p/75336#M7959 Jonny2Guns 2022-01-03T20:50:51Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/YouTube-on-Chromecast-stops-playing-with-message-quot-Sign-in-for-the-best/m-p/83190#M8740 <P>Hey there,<BR /> <BR /> Did you have any more questions or need any additional help?<BR /> <BR /> Thank you,<BR /> Jeran<BR /> &nbsp;</P> Thu, 13 Jan 2022 23:48:27 GMT https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/YouTube-on-Chromecast-stops-playing-with-message-quot-Sign-in-for-the-best/m-p/83190#M8740 Jeran 2022-01-13T23:48:27Z https://www.googlenestcommunity.com/t5/Streaming/YouTube-on-Chromecast-stops-playing-with-message-quot-Sign-in-for-the-best/m-p/86551#M9028 <P>Hey there,<BR /> <BR /> Did you have any more questions or need any additional help?
