MMM-GA Cast Not Working

hellothere

Hi guys! hoping you can help me figure out why my mirror is not appearing as an option to cast to. Here’s my config, sorry it’s a little messy as I just rewrote it all upgrading to version 3:

odule: "MMM-GoogleAssistant",
			position: "top_left",
			configDeepMerge: true,
		//position: "fullscreen_above",
		  config: {
		    debug: false,
		    assistantConfig: {
		      lang: "en-US",
		      projectId: "magic-mirror-79d8d", // Required to use gaction.
		      modelId: "", // (OPTIONAL for gaction)
		      instanceId: "", // (OPTIONAL for gaction)
		      latitude: (removed for posting),
		      longitude: (removed for posting),
		    },
		    responseConfig: {
			  useFullscreen:true,
			  useResponseOutput: true,
			  responseOutputCSS: "response_output.css",
		      screenOutputCSS: "screen_output.css",
		      screenOutputTimer: 5000,
		      activateDelay: 250,
		      useAudioOutput: true,
		      useChime: true,
		      chimes: {
					beep: "beep.mp3",
					error: "error.mp3",
					continue: "continue.mp3",
					confirmation: "confirmation.mp3",
					open: "Google_beep_open.mp3",
					close: "Google_beep_close.mp3",
					warning: "warning.ogg",
				},
		    },	},
		    micConfig: {
		      recorder: "arecord",
		      device: "plughw:2",
		    },
		    
			Extented: {
					useEXT: true,
					deviceName: "Magic Mirror",
					stopCommand: "stop",
					youtube: {
						useYoutube: true,
						youtubeCommand: "youtube",
						displayResponse: true,
						useVLC: true,
					},
					cast: {
					  useCast: true, 
					  castName: "Magic Mirror (Vanity)",
					  port: 8569
					},
				},
			
		  	NPMCheck: {
				useChecker: true,
				delay: 10 * 60 * 1000,
				useAlert: true,
			}
		},

Are you trying to case youtube if so is it a music vid? Try casting a movie trailer to see if that works?
The Youtube Extented is having a problem and people are working on it and the cast side may also be affected.

Hi, your config is really to bad. Use template and past inside uniquely what do you want to modify

Actually I see some merge from v2 to v3 and features not exist…
In see again a micConfig part and with this config It will never works.
Extented features should be inside config :{}

So better… I repeat again… Use template for create your own config with wiki

Ah, I see! I misread one of the brackets as the end of the config section. Still a newbie at this. I rewrote the configuration file to match closer to V3.

I am able to successfully cast YouTube now! With audio and everything! Might be a feasible workaround for folks until the YouTube fix is in.

I have already tried to send a YT video link directly via the cast it works but the problem is that the CAST player asks for a confirmation by click to start playback.
not very practical … so I did not deploy this

The main thing is that you have fixed your mistake.

Good use to you
