I am a satisfied user of Infuse and you guys have made my video experience really good I just love the app on my Apple TV!
Since my parents etc. All have an Android I bought them a Chromecast Ultra on LAN connection, knowing that Infuse supports Chromecast casting.
It has been a dreadful experience really.. 4K I just cannot seem to cast without constant buffering in the app and crashes. Even 720p anime just freezes most of the times and I need to resort to Kodi It always stops around 3 minutes, Netflix casting etc. Works fine really whatever I throw at it
Is there someting I am doing wrong (Jeah, didn’t but them an Apple TV I guess lol) or do you guys have any tips or tricks for me to fix it maybe?
I’m in the same boat as you. Dont use Apple TV but have problems casting from infuse to any android tv. Other apps casting works flawlessly, only have issues with Infuse. Hope this can be addressed soon.
Tbh I gave up on it.. Love this product but email communication was like really slow and the response here is nothing.. So I bought an Shield with Kodi for downstairs
For myself upstairs I still use the Apple TV with Infuse though. Make no mistake I love the product and that it is easy to use But that only seems to be the case on Apple hardware
Considering that 4K can barely work over regular Wi-Fi (Ethernet recommended)
, casting is going to have worse performance so most likely will buffer. Infuse does direct streaming of files whereas others might use lower quality when casting.
I don’t use casting but that’s just a guess.
Here’s a link of people testing speeds. Maybe this could work
TBH I know it can’t be that. I play 4k fairly well over WiFi, regularly stream high bitrate movies over WiFi. As soon as I use Infuse to cast, even a low bitrate movie will stop. I have to manually stop the cast and recast for it to work again. AND this will only get it working for another minute or so before the problem occurs again.
It’s network speed, and it’s also not the fact that Infuse plays original quality. I’ve direct played high bitrate movies with absolutely no problem (not with infuse).
For me every app works except Infuse… 4K netflix and all. My Chromecast is hooked up to an ethernet cable because it is the Ultra. And my Wifi speeds with the iPhone are 321Mbps down and 320Mbps up so I don’t think that should be any problem…
Infuse just doesn’t play nice with it… Which is a shame because I only bought that thing because I thought Infuse would work well with it but it doesn’t
