To my shock - it worked!!!! Both video and audio cast to the bedroom tv without any issues at all.īack down to the living room and still no luck.Īny thoughts? I really thought the advice in previous messages above would solve it but alas, no. In desperation last night I removed Chromecast and plugged it into my bedroom TV (a newer Samsung) using the USB socket for power. I've also tried the HDMI extender and the other three HDMI sockets as well as disabling HDMI control. The video streams absolutely fine (Up to medium resolution) and the WiFi signal bar on Chromecast appears to be 'good' (rather than excellent or poor). Choose the Chromecast device you want to cast your screen on. I've tried the power plug rather than the tv's USB port.

I've tried the unplugging/replugging Chromecast trick to no avail. Video casts well from Chrome tabs but other than managing a few discernible stutters a couple of days back, there is no audio. When to use it: Screen casting is great when you want to see content on a larger screen. Once you have successfully cast the content onto your TV, you will have to control everything from your TV not your phone or computer. Video and audio cast from the YouTube app without issue and audio casts from Google Play Music. How to use it: You can screen cast with technology like Google’s Chromecast or similar streaming devices and applications.

The tv in my living room is a Sony Bravia KDL-37W5810 from about 4 years ago.
