Incredible System Lag while casting - Device Requires Reboot


Netbug

Recommended Posts

I've switched over from an HTPC on my main TV to a Chromecast Ultra.

 

Since I'm now casting from my Samsung Galaxy S7, I've experiencing insane lag on the phone.

 

I'll start playing something and it will be fine. However, after 10 minutes or so, my phone starts to slow down. After 30 minutes, the phone is completely unusable and I have to do a button reset in order to use it again.

 

I'm using the Microsoft Launcher (if that's important).

 

Logs attached.

 

Please advise.

 

Thanks.

Thank you for your patience.

 

No worries. Any thoughts on this one? Have to reboot my phone every time I watch something longer than 20 minutes :(

 

If you're still looking into it, I can keep waiting.

Gonna bump this once more.

 

Also, if anyone has any recommendations for a low-priced tablet to use as a remote control in the mean-time, I'd appreciate it.

 

Thanks.

How can I confirm that the latest version of the beta has been installed? I attempted to use it this evening, but there was still the overheating and system lag. The beta may not have installed (I did opt in through that link in your previous post though).

Device: Samsung Galaxy S7

Android Version: 7

Emby Version 2.9.89

Tested: Saturday, February 24th, 2018

Result: Worked fine on local device. Upon attempting to cast, system lag returned to a point where a hard-reset of the phone was required.

I know what's causing it. I'm looking into it, thanks.

 

By the way are you able to play video locally on the device?

That's good to hear :)

 

Local content seems to be ok. I'm just running a movie now to do a real test (I don't usually watch on my phone; I use it more as a controller).

After about 40 minutes, it seems decent. A little warm. Some fast battery drain (went from about 78% to 60% in 45 minutes.

 

Minor lag with the rest of the system while Emby is running.
