Ha-catt-fix installed, but still recasting constantly.

[skewll]

I've experienced this on and off from the beginning. Sometimes it works fine for hours. Most of the time it only works for a few seconds and the. I just see the screen recreating and casting over and over.

Could you help me figure out the issue?

Here is a longer log. _homeassistant_logs.txt

Hi, what device are you using to cast to? I see it's named 'TV' but is it a Google Hub?

[b0mbays]

Closing issue, will reopen if the issue remains 👍

A Chromecast device plugged into the TV.

It looks like the Chromecast never reports the "Dummy" state that the hubs report when a dashboard is active, which is resulting in the endless loop. It surprises me that it sometimes works for hours... Don't suppose you have any logs for when it does work?

I'll try and cast to my Nvidia Shields Chromecast and see if there's something else I can do to check whether the dashboard is being cast.

[skewll]

I have logs on, and it seems to be working fine today so far. I'll try to collect some logs and post them soon.

I've noticed a similar behaviour, its not very frequent but seen it recast itself a few times each day

[skewll]

I believe it's supposed to recast every 9 minutes. Mine seems to get into a loop where it recasts sooner and sooner until you just see it recreating the screen ever few seconds until it eventually stops and doesn't cast at all.

I believe this issue is, this doesn't work well with a lot of the cards I've added. I haven't even been able to use it the past few weeks at all due to it never load for more then a second. I removed a lot of the new cards I've added and it seems to be working. Unfortunately, I can't display what I want to display it seems: my custom scrolling stock/crypto/metals ticker using tailwindcss-template-card as well as many cards using card-templater seem to cause so much lag/reloading that it stops the cast. it seems the chromecast is just not capable of handling my dash board. Here is the log of things working for a little (all though the screen was recreating itself very often during this time until the cast eventually stops, reverts to default chromecast screen and the TV can no longer be found). Followed by me try8ng some state cases. I found that it will cast a screen on state, but it isn't stable and eventually stops and also can't be found, then state cast doesn't worm. I've I caused that log further below

After some time even my standard dashboard with new stuff removed will eventually crash and then dash cast doesn't do anything after. I've tried adding a state change once the TV is lost, but cast doesn't seem to want to try again after it can't find the TV for whatever reason.
