I've cast v1.4 on a Windows 7 PC and it's working perfectly. Now I'm trying v1.8 (also v1.4) on my Windows 10 laptop and I'm getting this:

PS C:\Program Files\Cast> .\Cast.exe -debug -text hello
Start inventory devices - first attempt
Wait time = 00:00:03
Google device count = 1
        Living Room display
End inventory devices - first attempt

Casting "hello"

I can find the generated WAV file. But what does following mean?

System.TimeoutException: Could not get response for the request LoadRequest
   at SharpCast.Channel.SendRequest(String ns, Request request, String destinationId) in E:\Documents\VBNet\cast\SharpCast\Channel.cs:line 144

I can't find that at all. Is something missing on this laptop? Thanks for any help in advance.

looks like it is not connecting to your device to do the cast

can you try casting to a specific ip address and see if that works?

for example:

cast -ip 192.168.200.150 -text hello there

Iam having the same issue, getting the same result with ip

[roblatour]

can you ping the target ip ok?

Ping works fine, i figured out a other way how to TTS on google home and that worked with same device.
