Yesterday, Videostream, on my Windows 10 desktop PC, failed to function and connect to Chromecast - it just stayed on the initial selection screen - Chromecast, however, works OK with BBCiPlayer.
I contacted Videostream and they have replied:
Hi there,
Sorry! This is a widespread issue caused by the newest Chrome update. A patch is on the way!
In the meantime,
- Our app in the Chrome store works fine! Get it here: Videostream for Google Chromecast™ - Chrome Web Store
- You can temporarily downgrade your Chrome edition, and then the desktop app should work fine! Instructions here: https://www.reddit.com/r/chrome/comments/9hhdbr/can_i_downgrade_my_chrome_version/
- Uncasting and recasting works for some users, including myself (but is not working for everyone).
Apologies again for the inconvenience - we will have an update out soon.
So it wasn’t just me (as I thought) …
