Youtube Cast Receiver 2.0.8
Youtube Music 2.3.5

This is a Raspberry Pi Zero 2. Any Advice?

Does anyone know the best way to make this work?

App in test mode? Plugin test mode or not?
Also don’t know if you are meant to link with tv (seems like a one-session type thing) then it should play, or use the other volumio device?
Do you need to uninstall youtube2?

Was happy to use youtube2 as it used to work, but doen’t anymore either.

thanks,

ps just sent a log. not sure what to look for but would be appreciated.

@patrickkfkan Youtube cast receiver don’t go.
My configuration is: Volumio (4.073 on Rpi5 with the following plugins installed:
Youtube2 2.4.0
Youtube Cast Receiver 2.1.0
Youtube Music 2.4.0

Youtube2 and Youtube music are ok.
Youtube cast receiver don’t go !
My YouTube smartphone apk is properly connected via the Volumio Cast receiver plugin code for the TV, but when I play a file on YouTube on my smartphone, the streaming doesn’t start and then I get this error message on Volumio.

Is there any solution ?
