Description of Issue

Chromecast display works great - for displaying lyrics/artwork whilst I am using Roon; but come the next day when I try to use the chromecast display - Roon is unable to find any displays, unless I reboot the chromecast display and plug/unplug the HDMI connection to the Samsung TV. The chromecast display works in that I am always able to find it on the network and if I switch the HDMI input on the TV, chromecast displays all the google images fine.

Hey @Evo1668,

Thanks so much for sharing this - we’re sorry about the trouble.

Could I please ask you to enable Start on Playback as explained below, and let us know if it makes a change?

Thanks :pray:

Thanks @beka for your reply. Switching to start on playback appears to have fixed the issue :+1:
