[ggmggmm8 0]

Hi,

Trying to get photos to display on Chromecast (video and audio work fine). When selecting an album - they TV display either remains on the current playlist (a video), blank or the Emby 'ready to cast' message.

Same results for both a Chromecast Ultra (Ethernet) and Chromecast and attempted on two different andriod phones.

Emby Server: 4.5.4.0

Emby for Andriod 3.1.73 (Samsung s20 Ultra AUS)

The logs read:

Same issue here.

Emby server version the same. Using gen1 chromecast even want to buy new chromecast Google tv to see if problem disappears but reading this topic I changed my mind. 

I tried to cast from several IOS devices and one Android smartphone. 

Thanks for any help to solve this issue.

I've pushed an update to our chromecast receiver to resolve this. Thanks for reporting.
