    On my Sony TV, the factory installed version (1.47.216070) I couldn't get many websites, most notably Netflix, to successfully cast from Chrome off a laptop. The dedicated app for said site would attempt to load (three pulsing red dots) and then fail, crashing back to the home screen. With this update, that's not even an option -- trying to cast those sites that previously failed now instead triggers Chromecast Mirroring for that tab...which also frequently fails. I don't understand why this experience is so much worse than with a dedicated Chromecast device.

    Simply doesn't work. If you are lucky enough to get it to work, it will stop working soon. Terrible.

    It is completely unstable. I have a Sony TV (2019) with built-in chrome-cast. My TV connected to router with LAN, but many-times I can't share my windows 10 desktop and when I can picture quality is very low. My old LG TV with miracast techlology works too much better.

    I have a sony X90H android tv. just got it. The only thing that isnt working is adding the tv to my home speaker group. A few things Using the current version 1.50.227001 The TV shows up in google home. i can cast moveis and music directly to the TV, just it would cast with the rest of the speakers in the home group as the tv doesnt show up in my speaker groups avaiable devices to add. I have deleted and readded the group. Same thing.

    The Beta Locked up my Android TV Shield PRO 2019 over a couple of days. Several apps incl. Google Play just showed a black display or was extremely slow like snail slow. Uninstalled the Update and everything working again.
