Summary0013165: MMW --> MMA --> Chromecast rendering fails
DescriptionFrom 0011830:

Ludek, please, after new MMA build 481 will be created, take a look on case when MMA try to play tracks from MMW library to chromecast, I mean:

MMW(as library) -> MMA(as controler) -> Chromecast

It seems that issue is on MMW side, because it's working when I use Windows
Media Player as library. Working:

WMP(as library) -> MMA(as controler) -> Chromecast
MMW(as library) -> MMA(as controler) -> UPnP renderer
TagsNo tags attached.
Fixed in build

I don't have Chromecast to test, but according to Martin's log MMW refuses (denies) the connection because it is connection from a new MAC address.

'6C-AD-F8-A8-42-DF', 'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux armv7l) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/47.0.2526.73 Safari/537.36 CrKey/1.18.55065'

Solution should be to enable
[x] Share automatically with all new devices
or
accept the confirmation on MMW side (which can be easily overlooked).

Another question is whether we shouldn't change the default of the
[ ] Share automatically with all new devices
to checked state.

Martin confirmed that it was the access issue (access prompt not approved for the Chromecast device + [ ] Share automatically unchecked by default)

The only issue that we found is 0013205 - fixed in 4.1.12

Resolving as "no change required" unless we want to change the default to '[x] Share automatically with all new devices' that was changed in the past.
The reasons for the current default were discussed here 0009013:0032804
