airplay virtual devices won't appear #384

Hi philippe,

thanks for your great software and your time.

I wouldn't really bother you, if I knew how to do it I'd try to hunt it myself, but it's probably too complex for me; for this reason I try to ask you an hint, if you have one :)

Unfortunately, it looks like since some iOS updates, the airplay virtual devices don't appear correctly anymore on my iOS 15 devices; to be more precise: they sometime appear, but must of the time they don't appear at all.

I've looked through the whole issues list on your github and tried several tips for network optimizations, with no luck.

I then tried to recompile from your sources, adding several logs here and there, trying to understand better the aircast-chromecast process but I guess you spent several months of your spare/job time to make it work and this is something I won't be able to replicate just in my spare time :)

The 'funny' part is that:

The last one is the reason I'm trying to contact you: do you have some hint to give for some code-hunting experience I can try to do? I mean: I realize the two implementations are different; is there something I can try to compare in the source code? A starting point useful for debugging both?

Thanks in advance for your time.

All the best.
