Guestmode in iOS doesn't seem to work #730

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I can't get the guestmode to work on iOS 9.2 running google-cast-sdk 2.10.0 or 
above.
This is especially a problem as it seems to be a requirement for an app to be 
google-cast certified.

Steps to reproduce:
1a. forget all wifi networks nearby. Wifi is still enabled, but is not 
connected to any.
1b. simply disable wifi (not sure if that will work, so tried both 1.a and 1.b)
2. ensure cast-unit is in guestmode and is within reach.
3. start CastVideos-ios app or own app running google-cast-sdk 2.10.0 or higher.

Expected:
Expected nearby  cast devices in guestmode to be detected and the google cast 
icon to appear (logic reacting to the detected devices).

Actual:
Using a debugger the callback GCKDeviceScannerListener.deviceDidComeOnline is 
never called. Hence no cast-devices seems to be detected.

Software and hardware versions:
Tried running both version  2.10.0 and 2.10.1 of the google-cast-sdk for iOS.

IPhone 6s running iOS 9.2 and latest CastVideos-ios app (commit: 6bf875d)
Chromecast serialnr: 4117101WZ00G

Please provide any additional information below.

Created issue in the CastVideos-ios sample app with some additional information

In the issue that I created in the CastVideos-ios project similar to this a 
Chris Recher stated that it is because of I use a to old Chromecast? I can´t 
seem to find any documentation for this?

A section regarding guestMode has been added to the documentation: 
https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/guest_mode#supported-cast-devices

My Chromecast seems to be to old, which is the reason why I couldn't make it 
work. I have ordered a new model, and I guess that will do it.
