Hi,
When streaming to chromecast audio dongle on windows 11, the stream stops each time the station announcements come on.

This does not occur with the android app.

Great station, always has been!
I haven't casted a browser tab in awhile.
Took it for a spin and it didn't go very well. My audio was very garbled.
No reason it shouldn't work though.
But there is a big difference between the two strategies.
When using the Android app, the cast dongle runs everything locally. ie you can turn off your phone and it will keep going.
While when casting a tab, your sending a video/audio stream to the dongle.
Regarding the stopping,
Had a few complaints about that recently.
That might be related to a new browser sleep feature for "inactive" tabs.
Will look into it.

Hey - RP and Chromecast on Android is having problems - several phones, latest APP and OS. Symptoms: once you get a stream playing, go to cast, stream stops and app gets stuck - can't change channels, go to cache, forward, play - just stops working until the app is forced to stop via settings/apps/
Have noticed a few people having issues with Chromecast so far haven't been able to reproduce that.
The main thing at the moment that can help with the app freezing on some models is to disable any battery optimization.
Most commonly
phone settings -> app -> rp -> battery -> unrestricted.
But setting keeps moving across models and Android versions.

The Chromecast setup works from the Google Home app, but that's no use for the RP app. Thanks. Adding Chromecast support to iOS apps is not at all easy. It's nothing at all like supporting Airplay2. We'll be adding Chromecast support to our new Android app (currently in Beta, you can sign up for that in the Play Store), but iOS support isn't currently in the works.

In the past usually required power-cycling something, probably router. Another thing that can mess it up is if the phones clock time is out of sync. Mardler wrote:I am running that already.

It's an open beta. The button to join is near the bottom of the RP page in the play store app. Can take up to an hour for the update to be available after joining.

Hi folks, I'm running the RP app on my TV, via Google's Home app. The approach is to cast the screen of your device onto your TV. Here's the link to the Google Support page for anyone who'd rather steer clear of 3rd party app, while Bill and Rebecca work on Chromecast support for the RP app: https://support.google.com/chromecast/answer/6059461?hl=en-GB
