Trouble casting vimeo

[modernart42]

I've cast vids from vimeo to chromecast for years, on my older chromecasts. Recently, I've noticed some videos will cast, and some won't, no rhyme or reason which. I recently got a current chromecast, and it doesn't play any videos cast from vimeo. It starts them, and then they immediately pause. Pressing play again advances the video a second or two, but then it pauses again.

Using a Pixel 5 with Android 13. OS and all apps are current with updates. Any clue why this is happening, and what to do about it?

Hey there modernart42,

Having your videos pause constantly has to be pretty annoying, so I'd be happy to help you figure this out. First, I would go ahead and reboot the Chromecast with Google TV. Then, clear out the cached app data on both the Google Home and Vimeo apps. Finally, make sure both devices are on the same network band, either 2.4GHz or 5GHz.

I look forward to your response, and if you have any other questions or concerns for me, please let me know.

Best regards,
Jeran
