Xfinity Stream app stopped casting to one Google Hub after working for years
I have 2 Google hubs in my home network. Both have been able to be used to stream live content from the Xfinity Stream app to the Hub. I can see both hubs through the Google Home app and I can connect to both hubs with Xfinity Stream. Even though I can connect to both, I can only stream to one. If I attempt to cast to one of the Hubs, Stream connects and spins for a bit then I get an error on the stream app and on the Google Hub.The error is "We're expanding our casting capablilities everyday but right now we are unable to cast this video". I have no problem casting any other app to either of the devices, YouTube, Movies ...etc. I have uninstalled the xfinity app and reinstalled, I have removed the device from the home app, and I have checked the privacy settings. Please provide a workaround to get the Hub working again, it is used daily and this is definetly an issue with the Xfinity Stream App. As previously mentioned, this was working for years and it is currently working on 1 of 2 Hubs I have in my house.

I also just tested from a Surface Pro X using the Chrome Browser becuase the other poster mentioned it in his post. I cannot even get to the streaming stations on my browser. The window sticks on this

I have used Xfinity Stream on this same Surface many times in the past on the Chrome browser. I do not get an error on the Chrome browser, the Xfinity logo 3 dots are moving and it will stay that way for ever. I tried Xfinity stream in Microsoft Edge and it worked fine!!! I am currently viewing live TV in my Edge browser. This indicates to me that there is an issue with Google in general.

UPDATE: - If I open a private window in google chrome and login to xfinity stream it works in Google Chrome. Must be soemthing cached on my Surface for authentication that isnt working. I really dont care about my browser, if there is something cached on our iPhones that may be a pointer to the issue. That doesnt explain why it works on 1 hub and not the other. I did see many posts from some time ago that users could only see 1 Google device and there was a fix that.
