Streaming Nest Camera to Phillips TV with chromecast built in

[joiyfguy]

We keep trying to stream our camera to our TV with chromecast built in. The feed will stream for several minutes then take us back to the home screen of the tv where we need to start the stream again. Is there a way to have this continuously stream? We have tried full factory reset on both the camera and the TV

This functionality stopped working once Nest required everyone to use their updated Google account, rather than the old Nest account.  I've never been able to get the Nest app to work with any of my chromecasts, even the new ones.  This really sucks as it would be super convenient to have my nest doorbell show the screen on my tv.  Google Home displays do automatically show the doorbell.

Hi @joiyfguy 

There may be a setting on your TV to adjust. It seems that the Philips TV's Chromecast built in is not detecting any camera streaming. See if there are any screensaver settings that you can turn off in the TV menu. 

@bradmyers I can stream my Nest cameras to my TV with no issues. I do have a migrated Nest account but haven't experienced any problems with streaming Nest cams.  If there is an issue with your migration and devices not working please start a new thread and we can get you some help.
