Can't stream to Vizio TV with SmartCast


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hope someone can help. I just got a Vizio M55-E0 TV which has Chromecast built in. I can connect my Emby app to the TV, but as soon as I try to play live TV the screen is just black. It also appears that the video stops - every time I hit the play button it changes back from pause to play after a couple seconds.

 

The video streams fine directly to my phone and in my other TV with a a Chromecast plugged into an HDMI port.

 

Any ideas what is going on here and how I can fix this?

Well, just finished chatting with Vizio support, and they blame Emby and not their TV. If I can't get this working it looks like the TV will be getting returned :-(

Hi there, can we please look at an example? please attach the information requested in how to report a media playback issue. thanks !

 

Sure.  I just got home from work and tried to do a couple casts to my TV from my Emby Android app.  I wasn't positive which logs exactly would be helpful, so I pulled the 4 that appeared since just trying the cast.

 

Please let me know if you need any other additional information from me.  I appreciate you taking the time to look at this!!

I'm not sure this will affect anything but can you try installing from the website on top of your existing version? thanks.

Just tried installing Emby from the website, but am still having the same problem.
