Google Nest Community

Thanks for your reply, @AndrewMueller!It was my conspiracy that Google was crippling the older model Chromecasts to promote the sales of the newer models. However, @Niiilss below shared that his new model Chromecast unfortunately had the same problem...

For me, the effect of this temporary fix sometimes didn't even last for a long video. Very frustrating!

I wonder who asked you these questions... With so many reports here of the same issue with sufficient details, I don't think it's fair to further waste users' time by asking these non-sensical blanket questions.

More disappintingly, it seems that nobody from the product team is monitoring this forum - the original post is 6 months old now but it's still only users complaining and no Googler following up.

OK, so it's not an isolated issue. Could the product team please have a look at these reports? Really disappointing!☹️
