PlexAmp version: 4.6.2 When casting to a group or an individual device from PlexAmp I get “Cannot Connect To Player”. This has worked previously up to a month ago and has been intermittently problematic over the last month. Now it doesn’t work at all. Any help or suggestions much appreciated.

I am having the same issue on both my phone and my wife’s. I have looked everywhere and the only solution seems to be “wait.” I’m not sure what to do.

We have a fix coming, awaiting review by Google.

Looks like that has worked (at least on the first try!)
