What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Launch sender app
2. Connect to Chromecast
3. Shut down sender app
4. Turn off TV
5. Relaunch sender app (no attempt to reconnect is made since the Chromecast
does not come back online - no call to deviceDidComeOnline:)
6. Shut down sender app
7. Turn TV back on and wait for Chromecast to start up
8. Relaunch sender app.
At this point the previously connected Chromecast sends the
deviceDidComeOnline: callback, the cached ID (in lastDeviceID) is checked, and
a call to connectToDevice: is made. The device's connection state sticks in
GoogleCastStateConnecting until it errors out.
The desired behavior would be to connect properly to the cached device.
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Chromecast firmware version 27946.
iOS v8.3
Please provide any additional information below.
This is a bit of an edge-case where the device running the sender app is
shutdown (out of battery, etc.), and the TV is turned off. Then when the TV and
device are both turned back on casting fails.
You can force the connection by opening the list of available Chromecast
devices and selecting one, forcing the connection. Doing this, you should
notice that the cast icon is displaying the "attempting to connect" state.
