Receiver Listener is returning "unavailable"

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

(https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chromecast-video/cnciopoikihiagdjbjpn
ocolokfelagl)
2. Cast Init is successful
3. Receiver Listener (function(chrome.cast.ReceiverAvailability) 
receiverListener) returns "unavailable"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Successful. We see users who can cast using Youtube, Netflix, etc, but our App 
fails to get a receiver for some of users.

That's not right. I create a new tab via window.create. It works. It doesn't 
work for some people.

Why is it working for the majority of the users?

That is what it means when we say it is not supported; it *may* work for some, 
or under certain conditions, but it may easily fail as well.

Well if anyone comes around here, a work-around is to manually trigger the 
Session by Casting the tab.
