So, I guess they want users to download the Casting Apps, and I guess to it's to appease major movie studios, etc, as they've now hidden the option to enable/disable the Casting option from the browser itself to cast a streaming video.<br /><br />So, you will need to cast Google's own video watching website or no doubt their Ok'd list.<br /><br />The only option is uninstall the latest update and put it back to stock version which worked before the update. However, you will need to visit the Play Store via your app and click on the 3 vertical dots top right of screen then remove the tick to auto update to keep your chrome browser stock.<br /><br />I do know that Chrome was dropping support for Flash games, etc, at the end of the year but there was no public notification that they were dropping HTML5 support for casting from their Android based browser too.<br /><br />Hopefully, another provider will realize this massive blunder to appease movie makers by integrating the Cast of a video stream option from browser into theirs!<br /><br />Google has added the option to cast the whole screen to Chromecast, but renders your phone doing only one job meaning you can no longer multi-task due to their latest update unless you use one of their OK'd list of Apps where you have to subscribe to watch movies, etc, unless you use allcast or some other type of video cast which you hope has a decent blocking Ads option.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05164328859138812329noreply@blogger.com
