Reddit users thevincentasteroid and MMD3_ posted about an auto-playing video ad (with sound) on the home screen. The ad is for Chicken Tender Wraps from Carl’s Jr. When it begins auto-playing, it pushes all the other UI elements out of focus and goes almost full-screen, returning to the home screen after it has played through once.
I have the first Chromecast. Google emailed me a few years ago that it’s no longer supported, and that it’ll be a brick soon. That was about 3 years ago. As long as I can project my desktop, it works for me!
And I was getting really concerned about getting the latest model too.
When it stops working you can buy a wireless hdmi transmitter
