Thanks for the honest feedback @DP4 it isn't about complexity, it just hasn't been prioritised as you can control/edit the queue and then cast. But I totally get what you mean and I strongly believe we'll be getting this done at some point. Your comments here help us to add "pressure" to get resources allocated to the feature development. So please stay tuned to our community, no matter what kind of decision you make around streaming services :pray_tone2:

Completely understand if it’s not been prioritised  but reading through this this is something that's been asked for going back years and every other music streaming service that can be linked with google home is capable of doing this so someone who has some pull at Deezer must see on here the people asking for this function and  be able to get the app developer to  make the minor changes needed for this to work 

 

Will keep an eye on it and hope you can surprise me (if you can will be straight on for family hifi ) but not expecting anything to be done about it anytime soon

This was one of the things I left Deezer for

I totally get your point @DP4 I've been pushing the feedback you mentioned during this time. It's just that the team in charge of this is actually one of the busiest teams in the whole of Deezer - we have numerous partnerships and huge projects with them involved - I'll let them know what you think :pray_tone2:

It is indeed @kmokma we've planned improvements for the integration this year. Please stay tuned to the community for updates and in the meantime, thank you for registering your support :relaxed:

This really is a dealbreaker when having friends over and listening to music on Chromecast. Will be moving over to Spotify sadly who support Chromecast properly.

I hope you get the integration working soon because I agree with  the many  others who say „insert to queue“ and „play next“ are key features that should be available on all devices. I‘m nearly craving for those features coming to the streaming chromecast possibility ;)

@Aaron Romeo It looks as though Deezer couldn't care less about Chromecast. They have no intention of fixing it and seem to be deleting community threads on the topic.

In another thread, @Rudi told us that the Chromecast support will remain broken until further notice and that they apparently lack the skills to fix this within 3 or 4 years as this issue was raised over 2 ears ago.

Hey @MrHaroldA 

Apologies for the experience you've been having. Yes, we have our new Chromecast integration ready and working but play next and add to queue are still features we need to develop for it. I'm unable to give you a timescale but I assure you that your feedback will add priority to their development. I say this because I know our focus for the end of this year and 2021 is to get all these integrations with other devices to work better and do more :thumbsup_tone2:

Hey @Rudi 

We are nearing the end of 2021 now and it seems that this hasn't been implemented yet. You have any update for us?

(I'm using a Google nest audio, streaming from android.)

Hey @goodomens 

Absolutely - albeit for mobile apps. We currently have a Beta program for both Android and iOS apps. For more info, please see here :wink:

Apologies for your experience @MrHaroldA @Isaac McNaughton add the moment we're unable to prioritise this just because we're working on other major projects which may as well affect you positively!

The only way is to add to the queue before you cast, as the queue list will be saved. Once more, sorry for this and thank you for your support :pray_tone2:

Please fix these issues.

They can’t. Or at least they failed to fix them for over 5 years now or so, so I won’t expect this to be fixed in the next 5 years.

Hello @Rudi,

Is there any expected date to launching this feature? 

 

Thanks

I was testing Deezer and not implementing this feature is a show stopper for my family. Bye Deezer.

Thanks for the feedback @Contentcontent at the moment you need to set the queue up before casting, but this is something on our radar.  As soon as we can prioritise it, we'll let you know!

Well, it's a 3 month trial and you're not getting any of my money unless it's fixed so... clock's a-ticking!

You're very right @goodomens and that's why we've been working on a new integration for quite some time now. It won't be finished by the end of the year, but we've been told we're almost there! All we need is a bit more of your patience. Thank you for your understanding :thumbsup_tone2:

Which year was that? 2019? So this must be finished and released for quite some time now?

My patience is running out, especially with all the Deezer advertising these days.

I've run into this issue too when using Deezer with a Chromecast. I'm using a Pixel 2 and casting to a Google home group consisting of a mixture of Google Home Minis and Audio Chromecasts.
