Server Version#: 1.24.5.5173-1 This problem only happens when I’m trying to cast Live TV to a chromecast or Nest Hub/Hub Max. No video/audio ever shows up it immediately shows the “Sorry!” error message. I’m able to cast movies and tv from my library just fine, even things that were recorded from L…

Hi, Really appreciate that a Plex employee is finally looking at this, to add I am running Plex 1.26.0.5715 and have a HDHomeRun CONNECT QUATRO tuner, casting fails from Chrome and iOS devices (as well as others but those are the ones that should work) Looking forward to your response on this.

I am trying to cast (unsuccessfully) from the web app version 4.81.1 running on Chrome 101.0.4951.54 plexmediaserver 1.26.1.5798-99a4a6ac9 on Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS. Tuner is HDHomeRun EXTEND (HDTC-2US) Cast device is a Chromecast Ultra, running System firmware 281627, Cast firmware 1.56.281627. Cas…

Good news. The team has identified the issue and a fix is in the works. Fix is required in PMS. Hopefully included in a soon to be released update.

This is really good news! I’m looking forward in testing it!

This is fantastic news! Will you update us when the release is live?

Hmmm…I still have the issue. That’s weird, right? Do I need to do something else besides update the server to 1.27.0.5849?

Please provide details. Which client are you casting from and to what? The logs from the sending app would be helpful too.

I’m on PMS Version 1.27.0.5897 (Windows 10 21H2) and attempted to cast to a Nest Hub from an iPhone 11 Pro (iOS 15.5) running Version 8.4 of the app. I still got the “something went wrong” error. I have the zip file with the debug logs in my drafts. To whom should I send the logs?

Getting the same error after an update. I’m actually running two Plex instances in docker to circumvent this issue, last and 1.24.1.4931, 1.24.1.4931 works fine for live TV casting.
