QUESTION
The pause button in the Cast Dialog doesn't seem to be working. I noticed the same issue with the CastVideos-android sample app. Has anyone worked around this?
...ANSWER
Answered 2017-Feb-21 at 07:54I had the exactly same issue, I worked around by making classess extending MediaRouteDialogFactory, MediaRouteControllerDialogFragment, and MediaRouteControllerDialog.
QUESTION
I just recently started working with the Cast SDK and while following the guide to setting it up (found here: https://developers.google.com/cast/docs/android_sender_integrate). I integrated the cast button onto my example app, however for some reason it does not look like how it's suppose (?) to look?
For example, my app's cast dialogue: My example app Picture
vs an example app that follows the design standards (https://github.com/googlecast/CastVideos-android): CastVideos-Android Picture
If you notice, the CastVideos-Android one has a back-shadow associated with the dialogue and can be dismissed by pressing anywhere on the screen.
Here is all of my code since it's a very basic implementation (I wrote it in Kotlin):
MainActivity class:

QUESTION
Having trouble with the cast dialog and a custom receiver. Media is cast and playing, the cast dialog shows the pause icon and hitting pause causes the cast framework to send a message to the receiver which comes through to cast.receiver.MediaManager.onPause(). From there I pause my custom player and call MediaManager.broadcastStatus() which results in the sender's cast dialog button switching from the pause icon to the play icon. However, pressing the play button does nothing. Debugging the Android client I see that MediaSessionCompatApi21.onPause() and .onPlay() are called upon pressing the button but only pause is sending anything to the receiver. Any idea why the framework is not causing the cast.receiver.MediaManager.onPlay() function to be called on the receiver?
This happens with support:7.25.2 / play-services:10.2.0 or support:7.24.4 / play-services:9.4.0. I'm clearly not understanding something basic..
Another possibly related thing I noticed somewhat randomly, both on my app and the CastVideos-android app, is that commenting out the mediarouter compile line in the gradle file results in a runnable build but the cast dialog pause function is broken too. Everything else cast related works fine though. Painfully confusing..
UPDATE: I ran CastVideos-android app against my custom receiver (not playing any media but simulating the messaging) and the play/pause works fine. Starting to believe this is a build issue..
...ANSWER
Answered 2017-Feb-26 at 17:13Looking more closely at the latest CastVideos-android sample solved the problem. Given a dummy MediaInfo instance X, I was calling
_remoteMediaClient.load(X);
Seemed pretty reasonable but it wasn't working for the cast dialog play problem. Using MediaQueueItem (from looking at the latest CastVideos-android version) fixed it...
MediaQueueItem qi = new MediaQueueItem.Builder(X).setAutoplay(true).setPreloadTime(20).build();
MediaQueueItem[] qa = new MediaQueueItem[]{qi}; _remoteMediaClient.queueLoad(qa,0,MediaStatus.REPEAT_MODE_REPEAT_OFF, null);

Install CastVideos-android
[Optional] Register an application on the Developers Console http://cast.google.com/publish. The easiest would be to use the Styled Media Receiver option. You will get an App ID when you finish registering your application. This project uses a published Application ID that can be used to run the app without using your own ID but if you need to do any console debugging, you would need to have your own ID.
Import the project into Android Studio or use gradle to build the project.
Compile and deploy to your Android device.
This sample includes a published app id in the res/values/strings.xml file so the project can be built and run without a need to register an app id. If you want to use your own receiver (which is required if you need to debug the receiver), update "app_id" in that file with your own app id.
