YouTube videos sometimes prematurely end not long after starting.

by RapidWeaver

Has anybody else experienced this ?

In the YouTube app that's pre-installed on the Chromecast (the one with Google/AndroidTV included), a video will sometimes prematurely end.

I'll be logged into my Google account through the main interface. I open the YouTube app and click on a video. The video will play normally for about 10 seconds before the sound begins to gradually fade out. After the volume has hit 0, the end-screen appears with the countdown for the next auto-play video.

The annoying thing is that this often happens when playing a recommended video and when I hit the back button, I'm presented with new videos.

I've re-started the app and the Chromecast. Any reasons why this might be happening?

I’ve had the same thing happen to me more than once!

My LG C9 tv does the same thing at random using the WebOS YT app.
