I have the same problem with KEF LS50 speakers.

Since the upgrade to Cast 2.0 they donā€™t work with Plex.
Has anyone found a solution for this?

23

Sad to say but for now, I use another solution with the name that starts with ā€œEā€ and finish with ā€œyā€ā€¦ :blush:
I ā€œcastā€ DLNA from server to my Cambridge EVO amplifier (and not the other way arround)
This is a functionality Plex doesnā€™t have (yet)

Itā€™s also a bigger win because with DLNA, I have the album cover on the screen, which was never the case with CC client.

But I miss a lot Plexamp! :sleepy:

Yes, I have DLNA enabled in PLEX and I can play it without problems from the speakers, but it is very uncomfortable.

I also have as an alternative a PLEXAMP a Raspberry connected to the speakers.

These are solutions, but complex, it doesnā€™t make sense that the Chromecast doesnā€™t work.
At first I thought it was a problem of updating my speakers, but I see from this thread that it is Plex that has to update its driver to the latest versions of Chomecast.

In my case, it was the same: Cambridge did update their CC client to v2 and Plex CC was not working anymore. But as a IT technician, I simply would ask:

  • why is the CC client not downwards compatible?
  • why my CC audio (2x in house) and my Chromecast 4K are still able to cast Plex?

At some point, it is a shared responsibility between vendor(s) (including Google) and Plex but it is very difficult to make everybody move in the same direction! :blush:
