Log ID: P4R2H26NAQ It happened again: After MMA crash all manual playlists disppeared I am not quite sure what exactly forced the crash, but here is what I remember... - This morning I was casting to google home speaker - playback stopped after playlist end, not sure if casting connection was still ...

I just noticed that the database seems to be broken too. All song ratings are missing. When doing a sync with MMW4 MMA showed "matching new files" for all mp3s.

All this things are already shown in the main playback view. Also the volume control can be done through the hatdware ...

1210 still shows this issue.

With 1210 it is running more stable again. Now when starting casting in MMA the phone instantly shows a sticky notification for "shared controls". This notification did not show up instantly in the past. But VLC app shows the same behaviour when starting streaming. Now and then casting still breaks ...

Nice! I'll report back then.

Over the time this thread went away from it's main topic "casting issues after renderer switch". And @Peke is right... My current casting issues seem to be a result of power policy restrictions. We already faced this issue within this topic here - see posts of February. And is was fixed in April ...
