Fix for pausing music while cast to Google Chromecast with Google TV.

Hi all,


Yesterday I found the fix (or rather workaround) for this annoying issue with pausing music while one is casting music from Android device to Chromecast.


You have to switch off Chromecast screen saver.


First enable developer mode:


Go into the main device "gear" settings icon

Go down and select "System"

Go down and select "About"

Go to the bottom "Android TV OS Build"

Press select 7 times (it will say you are now a developer)


Go back one level to system and you will see a new choice for "Developer options", go into that

Go down one to "Stay awake" and toggle it on

Leave developer mode on.


Start casting from your device.
