So I've had this Chromecast for a while and not had any problems but recently when i turn on the power button it just goes to a black screen. I googled ever solution and did them all. I unplugged it and plugged it back in which worked....but i would have to do that each time i want to turn the TV on. I factory reset it and all the other tricks. I'm thinking that maybe it's because my dog ate the remote and it's a new remote? But i paired it with the Chromecast so it should work. Right now, since i don't want to get up to unplug the tv every time, i discovered that if i turn the TV on and off again from the black screen a few times eventually the light on my Vizio tv flashes and then when i turn it on again, the Chromecast loads. I don't know if it's my tv, the remote, or the Chromecast causing the problems but something isn't communicating correctly and it makes watching tv stressful instead of relaxing.
