Chomecast menu cursor stuck moving up

Hello,

my Chromecast has been working fine for a long time. but recently when it is turned on it cursor is stuck moving up. If i press down on the remote it goes down briefly and then straight back up. the only way it works is if i power it off at the wall and back on. it then works until I return to the home screen and then get stuck up again. I have reset and repaired the remote to no avail. Im assuming this has happened after some sort of update. 

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Hi there,

Ugh, that sounds annoying!

I would also try a factory reset to the Chromecast to see if that helps in addition to the reset of the remote if you haven't done that yet.

You can also order a new remote or use your android device as a virtual remote.

Have tried a factory reset and still the same. I dont believe it is the remote because the virtual remote does the same thing.

Interesting.  Let me check with the Community Specialists if there is any known issues like that.
