YouTube videos freeze after 2 minutes of play

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Cast a YouTube video from an android phone, tablet, or Windows 7 computer
2.The video will begin play
3.The video will freeze at or around the 2-minute mark (recent tests froze at 
1:59, 2:15, and 2:17 - but multiple tests produce this result)
4. While freezing, the YouTube video on the phone, tablet or computer will show 
a the 'loading' graphic, which will continue indefinitely until step 5
5. On casting device (e.g. phone, tablet, computer), slide the time bar 
forwards or backwards by a few seconds
6. Play will resume
7. After a further 2 minutes of play, the video will freeze again

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expect video to run continuously, as long as the internet connection is stable. 
Instead, YouTube video stops consistently after two minutes of play.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
-Chromecast app for Android version 1.3.10
-YouTube app for Android version 5.3.24
-Chromecast Chrome Extension on Chrome Version 31.0.1650.63 m
-Laptop computer running Windows 7
-Samsung Galaxy SIII Mini running Android 4.1.2
-HTC Desire S running Android 4.0.4

Please provide any additional information below.

Further details that would indicate this isn't a problem with the internet 
connection, television, or casting device: On the same internet connection, on 
the same devices, the YouTube videos will play continuously with no 
interruption. The problem only occurs when casting. This has also occurred with 
when trying two different computers to cast to the Chromecast (not 
simultaneously), and has also occurred while using two entirely separate 
internet connections with two entirely different television sets.

I have the exact same problem.  Doesn't matter whether it's my laptop, S4, or 
Galaxy Tab 3 (7"). All have the pause after about every single 2 minutes and 15 
seconds.  Exactly as described above.

To follow up, a factory reset of the Chromecast made the issue go away on my 
device, but this of course may not address what caused the issue in the first 
place.

I had the same exact issue. Newest version of everything. I did a factory reset 
and it worked for a little while but it still periodically pauses for no reason 
at around the 2 minute mark.

I did the factory reset and then followed up right away after initial setup 
with a reboot using the app and have had no issues since.
