I just got an Android TV for my family. How do I disable the "A device on your Wi-Fi is casting" notification when someone else is casting to the TV?

Title.

It bothers me a lot as I keep getting the notification when a member of my family is using the TV. I've tried looking for solution on the internet but couldn't find any. I read an article saying to disable "Let others control your cast media" but couldn't find the option on my TV.

TV is Sony X8500G.

Open the Google Home app.

In the top right corner of the Home screen, tap Devices to see available Chromecast devices.

Scroll to find the device card for the Chromecast you'd like prevent sending cast notifications.

In the top right corner of the device card, tap the device card menu.

Under Device info, turn "Let others control your casted media" off.

Are you getting the notification on your phone? I'm assuming you are not talking about on the TV since you said someone else was using the TV. If you have an Android phone or tablet you can turn of the notification under Google Play Services. Go to App Info for Google Play Services, click on Notifications and scroll done to the Other section. Turn off Cast notifications.
