Casting to chromecast disconnects after 4 sec

 It seems like this issue has been going on for quite some time but I am just now finding the issue today so I can  cast to my chromecast for about 4 seconds then it disconnects. I've restarted everything possible that you can imagine I even unplugged my TV nd reset my vizio TV.

 I have uninstalled and reinstalled the xfinity streaming app again it will connect but then it disconnects 4 seconds later. This is only the xfinity app I can cast any other app and it will not disconnect only the xfinity app please advise on what to do?

I’ve been having the same issue for about two weeks now. I couldn’t find any solution. I’ve soft reset & factory reset my tv, unplugged the gateway for 5 minutes, uninstalled/reinstalled xfinity app…nothing has worked.

@XfinityCrystal​ There is no chat icon next to the bell in the top right corner of my screen. Is there another way to contact you? Can I email someone? Thanks.

  • Here's how to send that message;
  • Click "Sign In" if necessary.

    Click the "Direct Message" icon  in the upper right corner or https://forums.xfinity.com/direct-messaging  
     
    Click the "New message" (pencil and paper) icon.
     
    The "To:" line prompts you to "Type the name of a person". Instead, type "Xfinity Support" there.
     
    As you are typing a drop-down list appears. Select "Xfinity Support" from that list.
     
    An "Xfinity Support" graphic replaces the "To:" line.
     
    Type your message in the text area near the bottom of the window.
     
    Press Enter to send it.

 

We hope to hear from you soon.

We have had this same problem since Dec 14th.  Ithas screwed up Christmas due to our belief that we would be ablle to cast from Xfinity while we were visiting family.

There's something wrong with casting Xfinity Stream to a Vizio Smartcast TV. I can cast to my LG, no problem, but when I can cast to a Vizio tv with smartcast built-in, it drops in about 4 seconds. I can cast to the Vizio from YouTube and Spectrum TV app, but Xfinity doesn't like Vizio. It's not the TV its Xfinity. It's like it can't hold on to the handshake for more than a few seconds.
