Dear,
My tv supports 1080p @ 60fps. Whenever I reboot the Chromecast HD, it automatically switches the resolution to 720p. Why is it happening?
Secondly, to switch back to 1080p I need to switch to 480p first and from there switch to 1080p. Switching directly from 720p to 1080p does not change the setting.
Anyone encountered similar issues?

Chromecast with Google TV HD is relatively new and did not received any major software updates.
At this point, in my opinion, there are two possible causes for your problem: a Chromecast software bug or a HDMI handshake issue.
The HDMI handshake issue can be verified by connecting the Chromecast device to a HDMI 2.0 or 2.1 cable extender or to a HDMI switch.

Thanks. Unfortunately I don't have any HDMI extender or switch. Is it enough I report the bug here? Is there a way to report bugs that doesn't involve downloading the Google Nest app?

Hey there,
Thanks for the help, djtetei.
heybaybee, how's it going? Still need help? If so, you may try to reboot your Wi-Fi router and your Chromecast with Google TV (HD). Also, if one is available, please plug in the Chromecast with Google TV (HD) on a different TV screen. Resetting your device might also help.
Thanks,
Jennifer

I've rebooted both the WiFi router and the Chromecast but the problem persists.
Unfortunately I'm unable to test it with other TV.
I can say the issue possibly started after the last update.
