VLC 3 & 4 Chromecast disconnects when skipping

This has been a major annoyance for some time. Casting video to an authentic Chromecast stick HD or 4K versions, from VLC for Windows 10&11 3.x, 4.x and VLC Android 3.5.x on Android 12 (plus many prior versions and releases) When casting, any video source file type I have tried, using any skip f...

Re: DD/DTS Bitstream/Passthrough with Chromecast

Does your TV have a digital audio out? If so you should be able to use that to connect to your sound system, assuming it has a digital input. My AV received is over 10 years old, probably closer to 15, it has HDMI input and output, as well as optical and coaxial digital audio inputs.

As far as I can tell, 100% of them are working properly on VLC Android. Downloaded version: vlc-3.0.12.1-win64-17f64...

I hope it will be possible to keep the screen and controls active permanently.

Personally, I hope VLC will be able to override that a...
