Some links on Chromecast and stuttering
Posted by jpluimers on 2022/10/18
For my link archive (all my Chromecast devices are wired via LAN to low-latency fiber backed ISPs):
- [Wayback/Archive.is] chromecast v1 audio stuttering – Google Search
- [Archive.is] The reason why the Chromecast stutters with some YouTube videos lately : Chromecast
- [Archive.is] 1st gen Chromecast – stuttering audio when playing from Youtube. : Chromecast
The remedy would be to bring the option of video quality option back. – about 1-2 years ago there was a setting option to be able to change the casting quality – 1080, 720, etc …I am wondering what Google’s logic was to remove this option. - [Wayback/Archive.is] YouTube stutter on Gen 1 Chromecast – Chromecast Community
- [Wayback/Archive.is] Chromecast audio stuttering issue with YouTube 1080p60 video surfaces
For v1 Chromecast devices, it seems Google does not care any more and will always stream at 1060p50 or 1060p60 without giving the opportunity to tune down the quality from the Android Chromecast app (my app always shows “Quality:Unavailable”, see the picture below the signature).
For v2 and up, there sometimes are firmware issues that take long times to get resolved.
