Image Casting to Chromecast only shows a Homey logo

Questions & Help
1

When I try to cast an image (when the doorbell is rang), and I cast the image to a Google Chromecast TV or my Google Hub, it only shows an looping/turning Homey logo.

I tried exactly the same flow, but instead of casting it to google, I send a push message to my phone, and then it works perfectly and I see the snapshot of my doorbell.

So somehow I am able to push the image to my phone, but not to my Chromecast screens.
Is this a known issue? And how to fix it?

Ps… I use a Homey Pro

Does it work if you cast a picture you already have?

I already have the doorbell picture. This picture is updatet when someone is ringing. But without ringing I can send an older version to my phone for example. But then I still see the GIF of the Homey logo when I cast it to google.

Make sure to add a “stop casting” card, and have the “cast a picture” card delayed for 1s.

Somehow it doesn’t start casting when it’s already casting something else.

That did the trick, thanks!
