Not all android versions supported? #17

Open rick-siteapps opened 10 years ago

rick-siteapps commented 10 years ago

Are all android versions supported? Because the app i build works like a charm on 2 devices, so we ordered 2 new devices, but on both devices no receivers can be found.

The devices are both on the correct network and apps like youtube find the receiver as it should.

On one device the logcat outputs a Calling a method in the system process without a qualified user error. On the other no error was triggered it simple doesn't find the receiver.

Is it that not all android versions are supported or is it something is the settings of the new devices?

It should work on the version of Android that the Cast api works on... Do apps like Localcast/Allcast (Non v1-api) find cast devices?

Both those apps doesn't find any device. When i look at log i found those 2 rules on both apps:

W/g ( 4135): Service descriptor retrieval failed: http://192.168.1.85:8008/ssdp/notfound, 404 Not Found W/g ( 4135): Device service description failed: (m) Identity: (RemoteDeviceIdentity) UDN: uuid:11be0459-3591-0108-3bea-5750a423fef3, Descriptor: http://192.168.1.85:8008/ssdp/device-desc.xml, Root: true

Also this line about play services appeared

E/GooglePlayServicesUtil( 4135): The Google Play services resources were not found. Check your project configuration to ensure that the resources are included.

After searching in applications i found that Play Services was installed on the de device.

Could it be something not setup correctly on the new devices?

What version of Android are they using? We've found some versions don't support cast.. 4.0.3 - 4.0.4 is currently broken, 2.3.5 and 2.3.8 also didn't work.

The versions it uses are 4.2.2 and 4.4.2. The strange thing is, that one device with 4.2.2 works and the other don't. I just found out that there was an update for my android sdk, but after installing it, still no luck.
