recognises my chromecast tv, but does not play music about chromecast-desktop-audio-streamer

[SamDel]

Hi, thanks for the feedback,
It works for me, together with a Chromecast Audio device connected to my stereo.
I don't have a Chromecast device for the TV, so I didn't try. Maybe I try later, I'll let you know!

Hi,

I confirm the issue of peefour!
The Chromecast 2 is well recognized, it starts buffering and after a couple of seconds an error occured.
Here you can find the log file if its help:

Thanks for the log. I could reproduce exactly the same issue.

Chromecast TV doesn't support the stream format I used. I changed the format from WAV IEEE float / 32 bits / 48000 to WAV PCM / 16 bits / 44100.

I added a new release with the fix, can you try and let me know?

Hi SamDel, Just to let you know that it works perfectly!! And the way you manage the sound latency is amazing, you're the only one who can handle a latency less than 0.5s with a chromecast.And just a question: Is there a way to start the program only in the system tray without the main window? I saw I can toggle the window but not when the app launch. I will follow the updates regularly.

Thanks for letting me know. There's not an option to start in the systray yet, maybe I add one in the next release.
