Cast Screen not working with Cyanogenmod 12.1 - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have run the latest few versions of the nightly build for 30/7 and 31/7, up to the latest, 10/8. I have carried out a full wipe of the system, and almost everything works much better than with the Lollipop stock ROM.
This issue I have is with the Cast Screen. It will connect to Miracast (An LG TV, Samsung TV and a Roku 3) and also to an EZCast dongle. However, All that is displayed is a black screen. Bothe systems say that the phone is connected, it is just that the screen is not mirrored.
I can display video via Bubble UPNP to the EZCast and TVs, but that is all.
Here's hoping that others have seen this and can help.
Regards, Richard

I am facing the same situation mine would connect for a second and then just disconnect- very happy with CM12.1 otherwise but cannot find a solution for it anywhere. If you do pls share

Use all cast https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.cast works perfectly for me on RR rom

I don't think that Allcast is an answer. Bubble UPNP already works, but that also will not allow for screen casting, which is what I wanted to do.

Screen mirroring - Black screen, only sound.

Hi,
My NP runs under the original ROM, (6.0.1).
It works well when I cast Youtube or a video thru the cast option.
The screen mirroring only cast audio, the screen remains black.
I use a nexus 5 under CM13 to send the cast. It was working well with my previous TV that was supporting mirroring (a smart sony).
I have tried to connect the NP to my Nexus 5 access point. The problem is the same.
I really don't know in witch way I need to search...
Any ideas ?
Thanks
I've found the solution here : http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-player/595252-nexus-player-casting-broken-6-0-a.html
Just need to uninstall updates of Google Cast Receiver and update it again !
Running Android 8.0.
Solution : Delete cache of "Chromecast built-in" app.

No video after Google boot screen, but audio works (latest Marshmallow)

I am no longer getting video as of today on my Nexus Player, on my Panasonic TV. Audio works fine still, and the Google logo shows up, so HDMI isn't dead.
Just finished doing a format and flash to the latest Marshmallow version out for Fugu, and the issue persists.
Any idea what's going on with this thing?
Thanks!
Solved! Had to do a hardware reset of my Yamaha AV Receiver - seems to be a known rare issue with my model.
Instructions how to do this on the Yamaha RX-V377: http://faq.yamaha.com/us/en/article/audio-visual/av-receivers-amps/rx/rx-v377_black_u/10790/8325
Crazy. I run full android M on nexus and it worked fine on my Samsung TV. But I took it to work and the sharp TV in the break room would say "received unsupported video output" and go blank after the google logo. My Panasonic TV will display but everything gets very distorted and artifacted. I also have a Yamaha receiver however I am using an HDMI port directly into the TV. I also noticed the Samsung TV in the office at work. Had mo issues either..

Chromecast not working on SHIELD TV 2015 Pro

Hi,
I do own a SHIELD Pro 2015. The device is connected via Ethernet directly to the router. Chromecast-enabled apps on devices in the same network recognize the SHIELD, however when I try to cast to it nothing happens and the streaming immediately stops.
Things I have tried:
- Factory reset.
- Installing recovery images 6.0, 6.1 and 6.2
- Connecting to WiFi on the same router
- Connecting to a different route.r
- Installing LineageOS and try casting to it
- Casting from Android and iOS devices
It is never working, the only exception being Youtube. Casting youtube immediately loads Youtube. Casting Google Photos, Napster, the phone screen ect. does not work at all.
I dedicated Chromecast on the same network is working fine, as are Google Home devices and a chromecast enabled soundbar.
Bump - because I'm in the exact identical situation. Except my shield no longer shows up as a cast device when it did last week after a full factory restore. I'm currently rooted with SuperSU on 6.2.

Unable to screenshare Netflix to tv. Audio only.

Hello all!
I love this phone, purchased it used recently. However, my only problem with it is that if I screen mirror netflix, I get a blank screen with just audio.
THE ONLY difference between the essential and working models based on DRM info seems to be that it has hdcp 2.2 while working phones have hdcp-2.2. (Hdcp is part of the version number)
Does anyone who has this phone experience this? I can't chromecast as I need the unlimited data off the mobile. If you can screen share to a tv successfully with netflix, please tell me what products you use. Thanks!
Can anyone test to see if their's works?
What are you trying to stream to currently?
A Roku device, or a Microsoft Wireless Display 2, or a Screenbeam Mini 2.
All of the above cast everything except netflix.
Thanks btw.

Triodexe 15.1 Lineage casting not working

I am trying to turn my shield tablet into basically an android TV box. I am trying to get Prime, Netflix, and Cinema apk to play on tablet and cast to Roku box. I used to be able to do it no problem. I do not know what changed. I am running Triodexe 15.1 Lineage. I am trying to cast to my Roku Ultra. I know your devices have to be on the same wireless network which they are. If it isn't the tablet doing it the only thing I can think of that possibly changed is ROM and now my wireless network just has one network name for both 2.4 and 5. This new router just sets up one network and prioritizes devices automatically for which network the device will use. As far as ROM I cannot remember which one I had it working on. Is anyone else able to confirm casting is working on this app?
Update - When using Lineage I could not get my PS4 to connect via Bluetooth. This was in addition to not being able to use the cast button. I ended up finding a solution to the casting problem. I downloaded Cast to TV-Xcast from the Google play store once it was setup I was able to detect my wifi connection and get it setup. I decided to experiment trying get the PS4 controller working. I seen Magisk actually has a module to add support for the PS4. I installed it and it did not work. Therefore, I decided to try another custom ROM. I am now running ASOP 6.7 with Pie Android 9. I still have the cast problem on it but my controller now pairs. So, it took some monkeying around but I solved those issues.
It seams like we have a couple good ROMs for this device which are close to working perfectly and then the people building them stop. I know Lineage had official builds of 14.1 and 15.1. Somewhere there has to be on o hei builds floated around that is stable. Then, the proper patches can be applied to it. I have tried looking into building images myself but that is over my head. I have a PC I just built that is more than fast enough. I have a Ryzen 7 3600, 32gb of RAM, and more than enough SSD space. I wish someone could connect to my PC and remotely build images, or they could remotely help setup my PC and show me how to do it. Then, I would keep the forum updated with new builds. If I could figure it out I would help out building images for other devices as well.
