Xfinity Stream will not cast
I have found numerous posts regarding this issue, but no conclusive fixes. I have had the Xfinity app on my Android phone for sometime with no issues. Once fine day, it simply stopped casting, it says its casting and the Chromecast shows a still screen with the tree dots but never fully connects. SO, I tried installing the app on my iphone, will not cast. Tried from my laptop, from the Xfinity website, will not cast. Installed my brand new Chromecast, still does the samething on all three devices. I can cast from any other app on any of the devices to either of the chromcasts without issue, but not from the Xfinity stream app from any device to either chromecast.
The only thing I can think of is once the connection is made, the app it's self is blocking the stream from flowing to the cast. It is the only common denominator in my scenario. Now the question becomes why is the app blocking the stream from flowing once the connection is made? AND how do I fix it?

Well, after weeks of frustration it appears that my Chromecast is now working to cast programs to my television, both live and recorded. I am very happy that Xfinity ultimately resolved this problem but am disappointed that it took so long and was so frustrating for users. I never did bother contacting their customer service because I've been down that useless road too many times. But for those who have been experiencing problems, you might want to try again and see if it is now working for you too.

Guys! I was having the same problem on my VIZIO TV. I went into another question about casting from Chrome. I saw something about clicking the LOCK or sliders symbol. Once I did that I deleted all cookies and data settings, and IMMEDIATELY it started casting!
