The song that impacted you the most -THE THREAD 🔉
Seems that I can’t comment on my original thread:I recently was annoyed that I was casting through the web browser and paused my music to join a work meeting. About 15 minutes later my music starts up in the middle of my meeting! My workaround at the moment is to completely close the web browser tab so it doesn’t try to start up my music once the chromecast connection disconnects.   One suggestion: Plex implements this by asking “Continue playback here?” That might be a good way to implement, so that my music doesn’t automatically start playing without my input. This pops up when chromecast disconnects, whether manually by me or automatically after the time period (I believe 15 minutes).
I’m using the web app in Google Chrome on Windows 11 and casting to a Chromecast Audio.  It works fine, but disconnecting the Chromecast, either manually or automatically (I think it disconnects automatically after about 15-20 minutes), the stream starts up again locally once the connection to the Chromecast device is disconnected.  This happens even if the music was previously paused using the controls in the web app.  The only workaround is to use the media controls in Chrome; when you pause the stream there and the Chromecast disconnects sometime later, the stream does not resume.  The main issue is that I paused my stream and started a virtual work meeting, only to hear my music start playing for everyone on the call to hear about 15-20 minutes later.  I wanted to report this issue, as it would be nice if the music is paused that it doesn't automatically resume after a Chromecast disconnect event.Â
