    Hello,

    Recently Autocast is having problems finding my Chromecast device.
    I have tried to delete my Chromecast from the list and to re-add it, but now all i'm getting is the following message:

    "No Cast Devices Found on your network.
    Make sure you're on the same network as your Chromecast."

    Now I am a 100% sure that i'm on the same network.
    Casting / finding the chromecast works just fine for the following apps:
    - Netflix - Plex
    - Chromecast - Youtube
    - AllCast - Pulsar+
    - Avia - AllConnect

    In Google Play it says:
    WHAT'S NEW
    -fixed bug where chromecast devices couldn't be found

    But I'm still having this issue.
    I've also tried rebooting my phone and reinstalling/clearing my cache but it hasn't fixed the problem.

    I'm on my Oneplus Two (OxygenOS 2.2.0 / Android 5.1.1) if that helps.

    Can someone please help me with the problem?

    ps: it can't find either Chromecast (I have a old one, and a new one).

    Hi joaomgcd,

    Yes it used to work perfectly before, even with the same Chromecast.

    Yesterday, I've tried to go back 1 version but that didn't help unfortunately.
    I'm not sure if that was far enough back tho :) and it might not even help at all.

    Edit:

    Somehow I've managed to get my Chromecast to show up in AutoCast and have added it to my list, but the problem is still there.
    Tonight i'll try and make a video of how I managed to add it, it might help you somehow :)

    And casting works now through tasker, but only if I setup the command to cast twice (once doesn't work for some reason, i'll try to explain that as well).

    Some more info:

    When I try to use Tasker like this:
    [​IMG]
    It will not cast at all.

    But when I use it like this:
    [​IMG]
    It works just fine for some reason (both tasks are identical, i just copied the first one and pasted it again).

    Edit:
    The settings in case you wanted to see them.
    Note: the video was just for test purposes.
    [​IMG]

    The video I mentioned before.
    My solution to adding a (multiple) Chromecasts:
    As you can see, just adding it with the + doesn't work.
    But when I press + and quickly go to the mirror screen button in the drop down menu, it will find the Chromecasts immediately, and it will also show them in AutoCast for some reason.
    When I don't do that, it won't ever show them, how many times I press + doesn't matter.

    It's not that much trouble, but thank you for looking at my problem :)

    I tried to give you as much info as possible, but I don't know what more I can do.
    If you need anything else, or you have an update for me, please let me know <(^_^)>

    I love the work you do, keep it up!

    I'm also facing this issue. Is there a solution to this?
    Going into Cast quick settings is also not working for me.

    Hi!
    I have the same problem :(
    AutoCast can't find my Chromecast audio device. (Google cast can see my chromecast audio perfectly, and I'm on the same wifi of course)

    Do you have any suggestion how to fix this? I've already purchased AutoCast

    Update:
    After a lot of try, it finally found my chromecast audio. (i just kept pressing on the same button... :))
