Chromecast not working

Chromecast used to work but doesn't anymore. I see lots of messages about Chromecast problems but haven't found a solution for my problem. Chromecast shows up and I can connect to it. But when I start a track it says connecting and then buffering, but then it says Chromecast disconnected or inaccess...

Re: Cannot find server

Thanks for the response. I checked everything and could not find any wrong settings. I then turned off the firewall and it suddenly worked, indicating that the firewall was the problem. I then turned the firewall back on and it still worked! Go figure...

Cannot find server

My phone has recurrent sync problems. Sometimes it works but most of the time it doesn't. The error I receive is that it cannot connect. This happens with a USB connection and via wifi. I have checked all mediamonkey boxes in the windows firewall. Samsung Galaxy S9 Windows 10 Mediamonkey 4.1.31.1919...

Re: Chromecast Audio for DEsktop App

Many thanks for the information. If I understand this correctly, it is the setting on the Auto-Conversion tab for "Level volume when converting audio", which I have now enabled. But this produces strange effects -- variations in volume during a song and sometimes jumping to a very high vol...

Re: Chromecast Audio for DEsktop App

Which setting is that? I have to admit to being somewhat confused about volume leveling. These are my current settings:

Re: Chromecast Audio for DEsktop App

Good to know that support for ChromeCast is on its way. One problem I encountered when casting via BubbleUPnP is the variation in volume. I use volume leveling through the MM player and understand that the only way to avoid this problem is via track leveling. Will this be the same when casting direc...

Re: Chromecast Audio for DEsktop App

BubbleUPnP creates media renderers for Chromecasts it can find and for Chromecast groups. These then can be set up as DLNA renderers and be used as players in MediaMonkey. It did not work for me the other day but today it is working again after restarting everything. Don't ask me why...

Re: Chromecast Audio for DEsktop App

Well, I don't know what to say. It worked before after I updated the server but when I tried it just now (had not used it for a while) it didn't work for me either anymore. I reinstalled the server but no luck. Probably something to do with changes in the Chromecast protocol that have not yet been a...

Re: Chromecast Audio for DEsktop App

I had that problem too and solved it by upgrading the BubbleUPnP server to the latest version (#21). The description of the update before that one (#20) mentiones that they fixed the problem with Chromecast audio groups:

Re: Transfer all music files to external drive

Thanks for the detailed instructions. I'll give that a try.
One more question: are there any drawbacks to a portable installation as compared to a main drive installation?
