Can't play video on TV using cast-android-sample-master project


I'm developing playing video on TV via ChromeCast device.
I whitelisted my device and got APP ID from google.
I replaced it in receiver.html file and res/values/strings.xml file in Android project.
I ran the project, it found the chromecast. But can't play video on TV.
Nothing happens on TV.

I already uploaded receiver.html file into URL server that I registered when whitelisting.
Here my APP_ID: <redacted>
Should I change it to e81e1b35&#8211;414d&#8211;4684&#8211;82a0&#8211;c762837a2101?
And put it to strings.xml file in Android project and receiver.html file.

Can anyone solve it?
Thanks

  • Huy, first, it is best if you don't share your app id with the world :-) regarding your issue, putting "-" in the app id in your strings.xml is fine. First need to make sure your device is whitelisted; can you access your chromecast device through your chrome browser by hitting

    http://<ip-address-of-chromecast>:9222

    If not then there is an issue with your whitelising; in that case, did you remember to check the box 'Send serial number to Google' when you were setting up your chromecast device?
