Hello I’m Cisco, from Melbourne, AU.

 I am trying to cast some YouTube videos on TV using Chromecast but it is showing restricted mode needs to be disabled on Chromecast.

I pay for YouTube Premium and the answers on the internet do not match the current layout of the actual Goggle Home App

Could someone HEEEELP me with this?
