Hi, hope all at Conceiva are safe and well
I know this is an old thread but my streaming to Chromecast issues persist as more and more seems to be encoded in a similar way and refuse to play.

Hi, there is some limited support at least, when streaming to Chromecast, instructions such as Hey Google Pause TV, Hey Google Play, Hey Google Rewind 5 mins etc do work once you have started the...
Thats what I am thinking too, I think my only option is to pre-transcode or convert all my main files to lc.
Hi, I left them in, two subtitle embedded text elements. Just rechecked and retested to make sure.
Ok, so I handbraked the file to a low complexity version and added a 2ch audio as well as leaving the 5.1 although the 5.1 as an AC3 (could not seem to get Handbrake to give me a AC MAIN output).
...
Hi Peter
Ok, I have no idea why at the very start I had a problem with E-AC3 files wanting to pass the audio to a separate decoder but the problem has vanished, it was because of this problem you...
Hi Peter, I swapped over to the Ultra profile because of support for AC3 in the earlier profile because early chromecasts would just play this audio. If I swap back it will start to try and pass...
Hi Peter
Ok, now I am using a different device with no naming overlap etc. I have success on 2 out of the three file type. My problem now remains "just" with the following mkv files ...
This...
Hi Peter
The 1st example, the avi, no Transcode is triggered, its simply streams (or not). I have turned logging and emailed them to support if that's any help and sent screen shots.
The 2nd...
Hi
I am still getting incompatibility problems with my Chromecast. I am using a 3rd gen one now but as far as I am aware it has the same capability as my 2nd Gen versions.
Using the Ultra...
Perfect thanks Peter. Previous old posts suggested it did support subtitles but I'm guessing that's dependent on a native compatible file.
Hi
I seem to not be able to get subtitles working with my Chromecast. I have a Matroska (MKV) file with many languages available, in Mezzmo I can see under properties just English is ticked. In...
DOH!
Thanks Peter that did it. I always expected the default to be enable transcode on a new device. My overall setting was on but each new Chromecast device was turned off.
Will check next...
Hi Peter
I have switched profiles and renamed by device to be 100% sure thats the one being used and I can see it streaming but it did not trigger transcoding.
This is the full Audio spec of...
Hi
I seem to have a problem with a file type and playback. Initially I though it was because the files are mkv and I spotted some old posts on that subject but the fix does not seem relevant...
Hi
For a long time I have been using an Android TV stick, Kodi & the plugin with great success but now i have a few Chromecasts I have tried to switch to those. Sadly I am struggling with two...
Ok thanks both now sorted. My problem was my 2nd switch/AP setting. It was actually it's IP address, it was not in the correct range since I had upgraded my main router. Once I forced my PC to be in...
Ok found the source of the problem, just not 100% sure of the fix just yet. Realised my PC used just as a client is connected on my network via my wired network rather than wifi. Up till recently...
Thanks will give that ago although I have just switched to F-Secure and Windows 10 firewall and unsure where the settings are at the moment.
I take it you mean alter the firewall on the client PC...
Sorry Paul I think I am not quite understanding this. My PC's adapter's IP is not changing (i.e. server side), the only possibility is a devices IP address may alter (i.e. client side).
This also...
Thanks but it does retain all the other settings such as name, profile etc. why does adapter reset but nothing else, I expect it's retaining the details based on mac. When I swapped router recently...
For a reason I cannot see a pattern in, devices reset to Automatic and I have to reselect the network adapter.
This happens more often after an update but also seems to be random. Possibly when a...
For some reason Kodi on Windows 10 PC can see my server and plays etc. but the Plug in cannot see the server.
On my iPOD, Andoid etc running Kodi the plugin is working fine but not on the Windows...
Thanks Paul, worked a treat. I foolishly assumed as it had not successfully retrieved any metedata before those fields would be treated as 'empty attributes' and that the manual search option would...
Sorry but I must be doing something wrong. Created the xml and forced Mezzmo to maintain playlist but nothing changes. I assumed maintain playlist would work as it hasnt as yet found any metadata...
