Steps to reproduce the bug
hello,
thanks a lot for your work, i enjoy your app very much!
the problem:
for a while now, casting from the phone youtube app to my tcl android tv doesn't work correctly anymore:
- instead of clicking on the cast button once and then continously being able to control the tv with the phone, i have to click the cast button for every single video, unless it is in the same playlist - otherwise the videos will play on the phone instead.
this has been working fine for years, i'm not sure if the new youtube app causes this issue and if you are aware of it.
regards
Actual behavior
press cast on phone to tv -> first video works fine, then it plays videos on phone instead of tv unless it's from the same playlist OR i click the casst button again before i cast another video. have to click cast for every single video.
