Have you ever been frustrated by your Chromecast not showing up on your Sony TV? You're not alone. I've experienced this issue myself, and after trying various solutions, I'm here to share my findings with you.

First, let's start with some background information. My current TV version is 94, so that might be helpful in understanding the issue. I've noticed that if your Android TV doesn't support AirPlay, there may be a third-party app available in the Google Play store that can help resolve the problem.

Initially, I wondered if the website was causing the issue since casting works for my friends. However, after further investigation, I'm convinced that it's not related to the website. The real question is: what could be causing this issue and how do you fix it?

After some trial and error, I found a possible solution that might work for you too. Go to your TV's settings and navigate to the 'Advanced' section. Look for the option to set 'Allow Insecure Connections' to 'Always'. This setting may appear under the 'Main' section on older TVs.

I had previously been able to cast from my phone to TV seamlessly using streaming sites, but suddenly it stopped working. After casting failed, the TV would load the cast for a bit before returning to its Home page.

For those who are experiencing this issue with Google TV or other TVs, you can try the following steps:

1. Make sure your TV is connected to the internet (ChromeCast/Google Cast, Airplay) and that it's not disconnected from the Wi-Fi.

2. Open the Disney+ app on your phone and select the content you want to view. Select PLAY and then the Chromecast icon at the top of the screen to select your streaming device.

3. If you're still experiencing issues, try removing devices from the group by tapping each device. Then, add new devices to the group by tapping them as well.

For those who are using Android TV, you can also check the settings for your account that is logged into Chromecast. Go to the account settings and make sure that YouTube tv is checked 'on'.

I've contacted Sony support and they suggested a factory reset of my TV, but unfortunately, it didn't solve the issue. They suggested that it might be a device issue (I have a Pixel 6), so everything is up-to-date on my phone, including the Chrome app.

If you're still having trouble with your Chromecast not showing up on your Sony TV, I hope these suggestions help resolve the issue for you.
