Hi

When you try to print via chromecast from your phone, here's this message:

 

WhatsApp_Image_2019-08-03_at_20.42.21.jp

 

 

I use the latest version of googlechrome.
 
I use the browser to switch to chromecast.
 

 

I performed the test on two different devices.

Hi

 

To use the cellphone to the chormecast.

 

I follow the message instruction and hit play.

 

After pressing play, a message appears again.

 

This is on two different cell phone models.

What this means is that although your phone can connect to your Chromecast, your Chromecast cannot connect to your Emby Server.

 

Is this your Emby Server, or someone else's server? Is the connection over http or https?

What kind of certificate? Sounds like Chromecast is rejecting the certificate. You need to make sure to use an SSL certificate that Chromecast trusts.

The public facing side is using a Cloudflare Cert, they are good certs.   I have not had any clients not like them yet. I'll retest with chromecast. or @@igeoorge can click my avatar and login to my test server, try my server with his chromecast.

So the problem is not with the certificate?

 

Because the browser works great, I really don't see any apparent problems.

 

Have you had this photo issue on your chromecast?

Alright I'll test for your server. Please see if you can use cloudflare. Thank you very much.

Don't know for sure yet, do you have your domain name set in the emby server settings under advanced/external domain?   and secured connection mode set to "handled by reverse proxy" proper "public ports" set to 80 and 443?   I don't think that should matter though..    Is your phone or browser you are casting from and chromecast on the same network?

Yes, the destination server is in "external domain"

 

In secure connection mode is: preferable, but not required.

 

Are these settings correct?

so you are using cloudflare right?  you have a domain name      server.com (or whatever)    that needs to be in "External domain" in the emby settings.  not your server IP

and you should set secure connection mode to "handled by reverse proxy"

Chromecast and used mobile devices are on another network.

This was how it was before the changes made by you. Thank you very much

Should look like this:   But see if it works with device and chromecast on the same network?  But if you see it in the cast options it will usually be fine.
