Chromecast with Google TV and Nest Cam live feed

Hi,

when I try to cast the Nest Cam live feed on my Chromecast with Google TV via Google Home smart speaker, I often get the error "Camera feed is not available" on the TV:

If I do this multiple times (like 10-20 times), "sometimes" it works (and it works well when it does), but again, if I want to change cam with another one, all over again. There are some days it doesn't work at all whatever I do. It also happens that I get this "Camera feed is not available" error, but I can hear the cam sound in background.

My configuration is:

  • 4 Google Nest Cam (with battery), 2nd gen
  • 1 Google Nest Cam (without battery), 2nd gen
  • 1 Chromecast with Google TV
  • 1 Google home smart speaker

I have this behavior on all my Nest Cams. My wifi is strong and steady, so it's not the cause (everything else works just fine, for ex. if I want I can cast multiple 4k live streams for hours while downloading something big from the internet with no problems at all). Even the Chromecast with Google TV seamlessly works like a charm with everything else. I don't have any problem with my Nest Cams too: I can see them very well with zero errors on Google Home app and on the new home.google.com page. Everything just works as it should, except the live feed of any Nest Cam on Chromecast with Google TV via Google Home smart speaker.

Do you have any suggestion?

Thanks
