So I get the boot image when first starting up, then when it comes time to see the image on my screen to confirm the code I get no video, if i go ahead and confirm it then cast something I get audio. I have tested it on a friend's tv and works perfectly fine. I have had this issue in the past with my PS3 not working over hdmi but my 360 works fine. The TV is a Hitatchi P50H401. I cant tell if its an HDMI version support or what.
Any help is appreciated
So basically i got the chromecast, i set it up and everything works fine. The next day while using the chrome extension the sound stops out of nowhere(it worked perfectly the day before). Its not able to send sound via the extension when casting a tab to the TV. I reseted chromecast twice, tried different hdmi, different tv nothing. Any suggestions what it might be ?
Youtube and netflix works fine, its just when casting a tab that i am not getting sound. And yes audio mode is on.
Also wanted to add that i am not getting sound when opening an .mp4 video with chrome and casting it
Got the same problem.... The weird thing is that on my laptop the sound keeps going on the laptop, but no sound on the tv... On my gamer LAN pc there is not sound at all when casting a tab.. Youtube works fine on both machines...
Please update the post if you find a solution..

Looks like it's finally live. Not sure if this should go in General or App section.
Does anyone have the Chromecast APK 1.7? can't find it posted anywhere. It's required per the announcement. http://chrome.blogspot.com/2014/07/mirror-your-android-screen-to-tv-with.html
Not needed for our devices. 1.7 i believe is needed for non nexus devices.
I'm on 1.5.5 and it works
That's good. I'm at work, so I assumed every device would need it.
It's very laggy for me ?? Hmm anyone else?
Yup the screen cast is working without app. Once the chromecast is detected on the network the cast screen shows up in the quick settings.
There is little bit lag but even the videos play quite well.
Not sure what I will use it for though.
I'm excited to try it when I get home. I actually tried to check yesterday and it wasn't working. I wanted to cast pictures and allcast was being very slow using Drive. I'm also curious to see how games turn out.
Kept failing to connect for me, gave the phone a restart and couldn't get the button to show up in the quick settings again... Going to bed for now, hopefully I'll have better luck in the morning haha

Honestly, casting photos is what I'm most excited about. AllCast has never worked reliably for me and the Photos app doesn't let you zoom.
Hey can someone try casting sling box or xfinity TV go this is very important to me because I stream all my cable for free on computers and thinking about canceling my ISP and just using T-Mobile.
Here's the link to the new Chromecast APK if native support isn't working. http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...v1-7-screen-casting-integration-apk-download/
It works flawless with xfinity tv go app. Jus fyi

I'll be using it mainly for Xfinity app & emulators on my TV in my bedroom!

The first thing I tested it with was MXPlayer and a video format not supported by Chromecast. It worked flawlessly.
I tried flappy bird (I know) and it worked surprisingly well. Probably not 100% playable as there is an expected delay. However, I think other games that don't require constant input might work well. Video actually does work well for me. Also, I thought it was cool that if you lock the phone when casting it gives the CRT animation on the TV.
My sound doesn't work. Plays sound choppy distorted and very low. When I use normal YouTube with Chromecast not Cast Screen, it plays sound normal. Strange. Anyone else?
I have the same issue when casting screen however I'm running Android l and looking at the chrome cast forums here it looks like it's a bug with Android l or the beta chrome cast app

I was thinking the Walking Dead games would be cool to play with this.
Hi my question is is there a player except localcast which allows me to stream videos on my tv via chromecast but let the audio play from my phone? i searched a lot of websites but could not find anything hope someone can help me here
I could see this being possible by running a UPnP server on the Chromecast and diverting/mirroring the audio through that. I think you'd probably need a rooted Chromecast to do it at this stage though (which I don't have).

I actually got that to happen accidentally while testing casting from Chrome Beta on the phone. I started a Vimeo video playing on the phone, switched to full screen, clicked the Chromecast icon, the video loaded on the Chromecast and started playing, the phone screen switched to control playing on the Chromecast - but the audio continued on the phone. That didn't happen when I stopped and started again, only the first time.
Came from the galaxy s5 to the s6. Every time I try to cast video I get a message about not enough resources. Screen mirroring works as long as I don't play video, then it crashes. Tried casting directly from several video players, local cast, vlc, etc. only crashes and make the whole phone hang. It's not rooted and completely stock. My v10 works perfectly. Any clue what can cause this?
