Emby does not expose its media info through chromecast protocol

[egreenie 3]

I also have an Unfolded Circle Remote 3. I am using Emby on NVidia Shield using Emby for Android. On the Android TV App on my Homey I see the artwork of the played Emby media. On the Remote I see only the Emby logo.

I am playing content through a remote server using Emby on my NVidia Shield. I am not casting, although my limited understanding is that the titles and artwork are "shared" via the chromecast protocol. 

OK, then this sounds like a different issue.  It's not the Chromecast app, it's the Android app and how it is publishing cast data during playback.

Varrioth is connected to a remote server and playing content on the Nvidia Shield. He is not casting using the Chromecast app, but I presume that the Nvidia/android app is broadcasting 'casting' data during playback and it is this data that might be incomplete.  I'm not sure if being connected to a remote server is also causing an issue, but I doubt it if the data is being cast from the local Shield.

Thank you for sharing your experience, much appreciated

In the newest firmware for the Remote 3 this is now working as expected.
