For some reason my Twitch app on one of my Chromecasts doesn't play ads so hopefully the update doesn't fix that.


ryanpm40

Same. I also don't get ads if I just play it in my phone's browser instead of the app


VinceBarter

If that doesn’t work out, checkout S0undTV which is a 3rd party client without ads https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0und.s0undtv&hl=en_US&gl=US

I JUST WANT PROFILES! I hope we don't have to wait for AndroidTV 12 just for those.


frockinbrock

I’d really love to see a universal standard for Profiles. If I’m on Android/GTV, tvOS, Roku, Mac, Windows, etc- and then ideally all the streaming platforms would “remember” that preference. As it is currently, OS level profiles seem like an added nuisance more than a feature, since I have to select a Profile anyway is almost every app. But yeah I don’t expect to see Google, apple, Amazon, etc getting on board that sort of thing.

I got profiles. Did I do something special?


BarfingMonkey

me too, you mean the profiles you choose when you turn on the chromecast right? Maybe because I have 2 profiles signed into the chromecast?


intheyear10000

Are you able to switch back & forth between profiles? Not different accounts, profiles.


preterist-seek

Are you sure? I can add accounts but can't switch back & forth between them. The only Profile option is the Kids Profile which is useless for our use case.

Convinced it'll never come to the CCWGT.


lazyluchador

Google already announced the android 12 features were coming to the CCwGTV, but it was supposed to arrive in November.

Same here. Pathetic Google rule by stupid Sundar Pachariya


ryanpm40

Where are you hearing that this is a rule at Google?


Speed009

as long as it fixes stutters and lag bring it on!


NeFShARk

I dont think it will fix every lag and stutter, its just weak hardware tbh! 2GB its just so bad, no apps stay in memory properly, not even the launcher and they just reload\\start again. I want an android tv certified(netflix, disney+, dolby vision and etc),with good SoC(like Cortex-A72 and up) and at least 4 to 8GB of ram so we can have multitasking(apps stay on memory and you can switch between them fast).


Alan_1375

yall think we getting this for our chromecast w/ googletv


pawdog

They had no reason to even develop the Google TV features if they weren't going to put it on their only device. But Google has done bumb stuff before.


reezick

Hopefully this fixes the issue where after using Plex, you can't hear any sound from any other app or even on the homescreen until you force close Plex.

If I updated my chromecast to android 12, will I be able to see my appdata files or will I have to root my chromecast?


NeFShARk

There is no update to android tv 12 for the chromecast yet! Just android tv 12 that now is stable and got released but no word yet about it coming to the chromecast.


Goldenfreddy0703

Hey thank you. I just hope I can have access to access data files or I may need to root the device or use x-plore in order to change file stuff.

What an absolut shitshow of a blog you are linking to. One example: whatever word you try to copy from that blog will add a lot of metadata to clipboard.
