Android/Chromecast
It seems that 1.7 has broken something wrt android/chromecast.
In 1.6 I could play video files within the chrome browser by going to mediabrowser and using the html5 player. This also allowed me to cast to a chromecast pretty seamlessly.
Now in 1.7, navigating to the mediabrowser using chrome, I can get to the player, but clicking on play results in no response. Taking a look at server stats, it appears that no transcoding is occurring either. Does anyone else see this behavior?
Here's some relevant info:
Server: Dell XPS 8700, ubuntu linux 3.13 kernel
Serviio: latest 1.7 release (Pro)
Client: Android Nougat on a Nexus 5x/Android Marshmallow on a Nexus 5 (both exhibit the same behavior)
Browser: latest Chrome from Google Play
