@andrewilley That makes sense. I also have tried casting local audio from VLC player (which I would imagine works similarly to Poweramp) and it is also working. Could the issue be caused by Poweramp being incompatible with the way my nest router switches between 5ghz and 2.4ghz? This might explain why it works some of the time. Any thoughts?

@GeilerHeinz that's interesting. I have been thinking my Poweramp Chromecast issues may have something to do with my wifi settings. The problem is that I have a nest router and there's no separate 5ghz ssid nor is there a way to force it to connect to the 5ghz band. This makes me wonder if it works when it's connected to the 5ghz band and doesn't work when it's connected to the 2.4 band. @andrewilley @maxmp any thoughts?

Ok I updated to the latest apk and can confirm it's still not working. Please let me know what you think I should try to fix this. Thanks.

Oddly the play store isn't showing me that there's an update available. I'm wondering if this is because I installed the apk. Should I download the new apk?

@Osiris Also, it looks like I'm using build 906-911. Do I need to uninstall then install the new build or can I install the new build over the current one I have? Thanks.

@maxmp I have multiple devices (home, home max,ccwTV) and when it doesn't work for one it doesn't work for all of them. Also it does work some of the time for days at a time so I don't think it's something on my end with respect to access (correct me if I'm wrong). Then it seems to stop working randomly. I am not adjusting any settings in Poweramp or on my phone in general.

@andrewilley HI Andre. I appreciate the response. I have sent logs to the support email. They told me to uninstall the app and unlocker from the play store and reinstall the apk directly from Poweramp. I did that with no luck. I also tried removing the unlocker app with no luck. This issue is very strange. Casting was working perfectly all week for me. Last night for seemingly no reason it stopped working and I can't get it to work again. I can also confirm that casting from other apps (SoundCloud, YouTube, etc.) is functioning normally. Please let me know what steps I can take or what information I can provide to help figure this out. Thanks.

Sorry to hear you're having this same issue. Good luck getting support - I have been posting and emailing about this for over a year now and I'm just being ignored. It's very frustrating, especially as an early supporter of Poweramp.

I'm running Poweramp on an LG V60. Sometimes I can cast and it will work for a few days but inevitablly will stop working for seemingly no reason. I hit the cast button and I can see my speakers but then there's no audio when I hit play. Help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I am having the same issue on my LG v60. I initially got a few responses to my thread but now I'm being completely ignored by the admins which is very frustrating. Did you ever get it worked out ? I've been dealing with this for months and I'm basically unable to use all the speakers that I purchased specifically so I could keep using Poweramp. I'm about to leave a 1 star review on the play store and start looking for a new media player.

Hi I just want to follow up on this again. I hate to be a pest but I've had this issue for months and haven't been able to get a definitive reply. What's strange is that it will start working for a few days and then break again, seemingly without any rhyme or reason. It's especially frustrating because I bought all google cast speakers (as opposed to Sonos) so I could continue to use Poweramp and I haven't been able to reliably use them for months. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi just following up on this. Any chance this will be fixed?

Hi Max Thanks for the response. I have the cast button and it connects to my devices but then there's no sound. In Poweramp the track will advance 1 second then start over from the same spot. What's strange is that I couldn't get it to for months until last week when it started working. As of this morning it's broken again.

Sorry to keep being annoying and bringing this up. I had given up on this working but tried again last week and it worked as expected! It was working perfectly all week until I tried again this morning and it's broken again and behaving how it was before. Any thoughts on what fixed it and what broke it again?

@andrewilley does that mean this is something that will be fixed in an update? Is there anything I can do to assist?
