Chromecast 4K - remote control lag

There is serious remote control lag/interference to the Chrome cast device from the remote control it came with.

Never had this issue with the Amazon Firestick 4K.

I connect the Chromecast the same way the Firestick did on my AVR.

An extension to get the Chromecast away from the back of the AVR is not a solution.

The Firestick never had this issue. why does the Chromecast?

Hi TBWL,

 

Thanks for posting here in the Google Nest Community. Kindly try this workaround and let me know how it goes:

 

  • Remove the batteries and give it a 2 to 3 minute rest.
  • While the batteries are out, press and hold down the power button for 15 to 20 seconds to fully drain any static power left on the chipset/motherboard of the Chromecast Voice remote, then release the button.
  • Let the remote rest again for 2 to 3 minutes. Take this time to unplug the Chromecast device from power and give it a 1 minute rest before you plug it back in.
  • Test it and observe.
  • If it persists, you can factory reset the remote and pair it again. Take this time to reboot the other output devices (TV, AVR, soundbar, etc.).

 

Thanks,

Kimy
