Hello guys, I’m wondering if there are more people with problems with the chromecast app. The most annoying issue is that my Google home devices become unavailable after some time. A restart of the chromecast app always solves that problem. Another thing is that the stop casting button in the lat…

Discovered I’m also having the same issues with flows that cast to my Google nest hub, as discribed Here . Chipped in by contacting athom. Restarting the chromecast app once in a while makes it managable. At least this way it “isn’t broken” all the time.

I am not sure if this is a fix. But I noticed that the chromecast-switch for the hub was off. Switched it on and it was working again. The switch can be found under devices.

So maybe the url you are providing is not okay, or need a little delay on the cast url so you definitely sure that the url is set in the variabele [Screensho…

Try adding a delay to the second card (the one using the variable). Actions are always started concurrently (at the same time), not sequentially (one after the other).

Thank you guys for your input! I found the problem (strange one) when I realized (unfortunatelly not fast enough) that the only difference between our screenshots is the flow editor type. I tried all the things listed below… but then thought maybe I should try one more thing: to create a flow on a …
