Prior to today (the last time I tried to make a change this way was about 4-6 months ago). I could open up the Google Home App, select the Chromecast Device, click settings and edit settings such as Ambient Mode.
I do this (and access other devices) for my office network from home, vice versa, and from both those networks to my Mother's network in her house 1700 mi away.
Mostly I used this to update the photos in Ambient Mode for her 2 TVS that are setup to just show family pictures. Because we use shared albums, all her children and grandchildren can add pictures to the shared albums. But now I can't edit the albums being displayed to remotely show her a bunch of new pictures (and then change back to the rotating 800+ pictures from all the family).
