Luke 37022 Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Hi @ , what kind of SSL cert do you have. Did you supply your own or are you using the default self-signed cert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teiva 18 Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 Default self-signed cert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Luke 37022 Posted December 4, 2016 Solution Share Posted December 4, 2016 OK, unfortunately the Chromecast will not accept certs that it doesn't trust, such as this, and there is no way to override it. To resolve this, you should either uncheck the report https option, or supply your own trusted cert from a provider such as Let's Encrypt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
