Google Home Mini doesn't work with my Nexus Player. - Nexus Player Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
Just got a GH mini since they are so cheap right now. I have a Nexus Player updated to 8.0 and have tried to control the NP with GH mini.
I have tried to open Netflix from GH mini by saying, 'Watch Stranger Things on Downtairs' and it doesn't open up Netflix.
I also have tried to do Youtube searches from GH mini and it doesn't work.
Tried to reset the NP and it still doesn't work.
Am I doing something wrong?

I recall mine could turn on the TV that the Nexus Player was connected to, but not auto play something on Netflix.

This is awesome news! When you using Play Music All Access do the LED lights work like they used to?
Does it show up in the Chromecast app? Can you stream Netflix to it? Can you stream to it from your Chrome browser? Or is it just the old streaming functionality that's been in the Google apps since the Q was released? It's possible Google pushed app updates to the Q, but I'm not holding my breath just yet until I see more proof.

this would make sense, but it did play audio and video. the thing that does make me think this might be the case is that it only worked on my nexus 10, which is my only device running 4.3. i didnt work in chrome or on my s4 running CM 10.1
i didnt notice the LED and it didnt appear in the chromecast app

yesterday when I was using play music it appeared (as well as my bluetooth headphones) as an option for the device to chromecast to. i know it was supported in youtube, but it hadnt shown up as an option there before either.
the appearance of my bluetooth headphones makes me wonder if thats how it's being supported? i hadnt seen either before last night
Do you have a chromecast as well? I didnt see the little tv icon, or arrow did it show on yours?

Bluetooth devices show up google play music all access with the same cast button as the chromecast. I've tested this with a Jawbone Jambox and my Ford Sync stereo. *IF* the nexus Q was showing up, I would guess it wasn't showing up as a bluetooth device, it was never designed to stream that content via bluetooth but to access the cloud like chromecast over wifi. Do you have a screenshot of google play music that you can share with us?
Has someone tried this in their Q yet?

N7 miracast to TV but TV haven't speaker..

Just buy a new Nexus 7 yesterday with Netgear PTV3000, and want to enjoy movie and games in wireless..
But stupid thing happened..my TV doesn't have internal speakers, I used to connect my PS3 to AMP via fiber to get 5.1 sound.
How can I separate the audio by original 3.5mm or bluetooth? Now I cannot hear anything when connected to Netgear PTV3000...:crying:
Anyone could help? Thanks!!

Wow sounds like you need a video converter box that will give you audio seperate from video. You can't use bluetooth speakers. I tried that to get better audio. The only other thing you could try is a speaker plugged into the headphone jack.

Hi Failrunner~
So you've tried to play audio via Bluetooth when connected to Miracast?
I've tried to plug my headset into audio jack but no sound come out...
BTW, thanks your suggest, i will search for some kind of video converter.... Thanks~

Yeah i wanted better sound so I tried using a bluetooth speaker but it didn't work.
Oh btw you have no audio outputs in your tv? Not sure what soneone would be thinking to make a tv with no speakers and hdmi as well.
I have this problem too. I need to play my sound through Bluetooth speakers but Miracast will not allow me to do so. Interestingly, my Sony Xperia Z was an exception. It allowed me to play into Miracast and Bluetooth speakers at the same time, so I am convinced that it is a software implementation issue. Unfortunately, the Sony Z will disconnect me from wifi internet whenever Miracast is working.

SORRY, I spoke too soon... Sony Xperia Z (Android 4.3) does NOT allow the Bluetooth speakers to work together with Miracast either, although it DID work before. Whatever it is, in all summary, Miracast does NOT work with Bluetooth speakers! (or 3.5mm audio headset)
The sound is being sent to the tv as it is supposed to be. You need to pull the audio from there.

If I understand it correctly, even if your tv doesn't have any built in ability I can buy a dongle and make it work?
Also, this will allow me to play videos from my tablet SD card to the tv, not just stream vids like chromecast?

I thought Chromecast only let you stream Netflix and YouTube or other online movies. So you're saying the allcast app will work with Chromecast and allow me to watch movies saved on SD card?
Looks like I'm going to try the all cast/ chrome cast route next. I tried a slimport dongle from amazon, saw my screen for a second. Next tried a netgear miracast ptv3000, could only connect for a couple seconds and then lost the connection. Why is something that should be so simple so flipping difficult?

Some miracasts work with some tvs , same with slimport. Kinda a crap shoot . wish I didn't have to get them online and wait for mail to see if they work. Lol. Not many stores have them. Best buy has one sad little google display with n7 2013 n5 and chromecast.. . that's it. Ha
The chromecast/allcast app combo is working perfectly. Setting up the chromecast was easy, way easier than the netgear setup. My n7 connected right away and using the allcast app is very easy. I've been watching video for a solid hour now with no stutters or interruptions. For a total of $40 it's definitely worth it, thank you for the suggestion.

[Q] Netflix - no picture, but sound (hdcp?)?

Hi,
I have an appleTV and an Amazon Fire Stick, and the Nexus Player. All 3 are routed through my Yamaha RX-v3900 amp and then to the TV.
The AppleTV and the Amazon Fire stick both display netflix without issue. The Nexus displays all menus, but when you start playing content, the screen goes blank and you only get audio.
If I connect the Nexus directly to the TV, it plays fine.
I suspect this is an hdcp issue. I've called Google's support line. They suggested unplugging the Nexus, unplugging the amp, unplugging the TV. None of these steps worked. Although, unplugging the nexus caused Netflix not to be able to connect to it's servers, and the app had to be uninstalled and re-installed to get back the menu level.
Anybody else seeing this? Any thoughts on how to proceed?
Thanks,
Jim

Not that this is all that practical but maybe swap out the amp for an hdcp compliant one? (I think that is a thing since it's passing through hdcp signals)
the netflix app for the player has HORRID HDCP compliance.. i returned mine because of this.. the app is just screwed if you dont have a very simplistic setup.. anything at all between the tv and the player will cause it to not function correctly.

This amp is HDCP compliant. There is a bug in the Way nexus player handles HDCP with certain amps.
Yeah, the Amazon firestick and AppleTV both play through the Yamaha 3900 without HDCP issues, so the problem is with the Nexus player, or at least the Netflix implementation on the Nexus player. I'm also back to having resolution issues. Compared to both the fireTV and the AppleTV, the Nexus Player looks like crap.
I have no problem using the NP with my pioneer amp... Have you tried different inputs on the amp or different cables?

I've had the exact same issue, it's the length of the HDMI cables. I use a 5 to 1 switch. Once I removed the Nexus Player and plugged it directly into the TV (3ft HDMI cable), it worked perfectly. My Logitech Revue had no issues, my raspberry pi and Chromecast also don't have any challenges. Seems the opamps for the NP might be a little weak (speculating).

Same exact issue here.
Receiver: Yamaha RX-V675
-Firmware 1.6 (up to date)
Netflix plays audio but no picture, youtube plays but is choppy.
TV shows resolution as 576p.
Alternate thread describing issue.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-player/help/low-resolution-receiver-t2940767
None of these issues are apparent when the player is connected directly to the tv.
Unfortunately this isn't a very good work around for me as my tv's digital audio out doesn't seems to perform well with my receiver. (cheap tv, seiki)
The issue seems isolated to the Nexus player as Chromecast and roku work perfectly through receiver. (Guess i won't be replacing them both with this device as soon as i hoped)
Sounds like hdcp, hopefully google pushes an update or a patch is discovered soon.

Excellent summary, BUT we can also add Google Movies & TV to the list. I get the exact same symptoms using a hdmi switch as I do with Netflix. Again, only direct connect works, all other devices (Chromecast, Raspberry Pi, Google TV, PS3) I run work just fine (even with Netflix & G Movie&TV.
Happy New Year!!

I assume you all are still experiencing this issue? I just purchased a NP and have the same issues with both Netflix and Google Play Movies. However, YouTube and Hulu play just fine. I have short high speed HDMI cables (very good quality ones) . I use a Denon 2000 receiver. Chromecast and ATV works well. I can't connect directly to the TV as a work around (that's another story)

I figured out my issue. It was my directv box causing the issue. For some reason, it triggered the hdcp security on it for copy protected channels like hbo and showtime. It wouldn't let me play anything on those channels. The directv box was connected to the same receiver as the Nexus player. So, I reset the directv box and I was able to see my hbo and showtime TV again. When I tried to view videos on the NP via Google Play Movies and Netflix, it was working fine again ☺

That didn't work for me either. I had to actually hit the reset button on the directv box (the red reset button). Try that

Ok - did the reset button on the Directv, replaced all cables with shorter cables. Nada.
I finally routed the Nexus Player directly to the TV (works), then put a toslink opitcal out from the TV to the amp. Seems to be working, but it makes setting up to watch Android TV a PITA.
I wish they would fix the Nexus Player, but this is a decent work around.
Working now!
Looks like a recent update fixed this for me! Decided to try it today after noticing there was a new plex (not plex pass) app and realized that I hadn't tried through my receiver in a while. Connected it back up to my yamaha receiver and to my surprise, everything is working great! Netflix, google movies and the plex app connected through my receiver, audio AND video coming through as expected. Even the GUI Menu is showing the proper 1080p resolution.
Looks like I may finally be able to replace my roku/chromecast with the nexus.
Your mileage may vary but check your nexus to make sure it's up to date and give it another go!
Note: I am fairly confident an update was the fix as it was the only change to my setup. Simply plugged it in with the same cables/connections as my previous testing.
Good to hear! I was hoping for more stability with Netflix on the NP before I pull the trigger.
How about Dolby Digital/5.1 surround from Netflix? I read previously it only outputs in 2.0 stereo.
Thanks!

HBO go not showing cast button

I just received my nexus player tonight and am trying everything out. I've never owned a chrome cast so I've never used that feature before but tried it out with Netflix, plex, and Pandora and it worked great.
However, I went to go try HBO go and there is no cast button available. Nothing before I hit play and nothing while he video is playing.
I did s Google search and traded a suggestion of clearing out data, uninstalling, reboot device, and reinstall HBO go. Still nothing.
Like I said, all the other apps I tried casting on work except HBO go. Any suggestions?

Reboot the Nexus Player.
HBO Go casting works fine on my Nexus Player. I'm running firmware 5.1.1 on it. My phone is a Note 4 with 5.0.1
I don't know about HBO Go, but HBO Now seems to refuse to recognize the Nexus Player as a castable device. I've rebooted my NP, I've played around with it's wifi connectivity, etc., but it only recognizes actual Chromecasts as castable devices. Kind of annoying, and even more so that Now became Android TV ready, but only for Sony branded Android TVs, and not for the NP.

Same with me except it's the HBO Now app not casting. Sees my Chromecasts fine, but not the Nexus Player. There are other apps that show the NP, but not consistently. It seems the only ones that work are Google Apps (Play Movies, YouTube), but obviously you don't even need to cast those since they're native on the NP. I'm so close to getting my NP to be my one and only media device, but really need Casting to work correctly to get that to happen.

Lost Casting function after upgrade to Android 6.0

I can't cast from Ipad, android phone or google chrome anymore. Device is not showing up as a casting device anymore. :crying:
Anyone else with this issue?
The same for me. The Chromecast is still working, but the NP is not. I've also did a factory reset but the result is the same! The Nexus Player is not found in the device list in any of my devices.
I can only repeat what was said before me. Cast shows 'no devices available'. Also tried a factory reset since that is mentioned for earlier versions of android. But that did not work for me also.
Both of mine updated to 6.0. I was able to cast yesterday evening.. There was an update to the cast app about 2 or 3 days ago. Is your app up to date?
Only the Google Play Music sees the Nexus Player, but an atemp to connect to it fails. I've tried reinstalling the Google Cast Receiver, but there is no change.
The same for me. The Chromecast is still working, but the NP is not. I've did a factory reset but it did not help. Only the Google Play Music sees the Nexus Player, but the connection fails.
Same problem for me
The latest google cast receiver app update broke casting for me on 6.0 and 5.1.1... the only app i had which found the nexus player was hulu. YouTube, netflix, bein sports were not finding the nexus player. Try uninstalling the update
Anyone have casting working since the 6.0 update? If so, what version of the Google Cast Receiver do you have?
No casting for me since yesterday. I'll check to see if I am on 6 later.
Casting from ios without a problem. make sure you guys have the updated casting app in the playstore.

Yea, same here, GP Music is the only app that sees the NP. Can't actually get a cast attempt to work though. But not even YouTube is able to see it. Netflix can't either. GP Music just got a recent update. Maybe that helped it to at least see the NP?
When I try and cast things using YouTube and such, nothing running 6.0 is seen.
Time for 6.0.1.
This is shameful for Google. You can't miss a bug like this, unless you totally failed to test.
And I have the latest Chromecast app, always have since it was released.

Casting worked for me for a week after updating to 6.0.
My devices no longer see the Nexus Player as a cast device after installing the most recent Oct 13 update of the Google Cast Receiver app, version 1.16.43955.
I've tried clearing the app data and uninstalling the update (reverting to 1.15) and there's been no change.
The same goes for me, when can we expect Google to solve this, within a reasonable time?
I have got the same issue here on my sony android tv. I was able to cast few days ago, but not now.
Please report back to this thread if someone finds a solution.
In the same boat. Purchased the NP yesterday and was able to cast last night while it was on 5.1.1. This morning I find that the NP updated to 6.0 and now it does not show up as a casting option. Didn't have much time to troubleshoot this morning, but did a factory reset and that had no effect.
Probably not related to marshmallow, my android tv is still in 5.1.1
Same problem. I will attempt to flash 5.1.1 back tonight to see if all is good. Isn't Google testing it's OS? This is some major issue they introduced with 6.0 on the Nexus Player (and possibly all of the Google TV devices running 6.0).
