I'm trying VLC ( 3.0.8 ) with chromecast (on Debian testing Linux) connecting to BenQ GV1 projector.

Nothing comes up on the projector, and I see these messages in the terminal:

Code: Select all

[00007fd72cc05d70] stream_out_chromecast stream out debug: PONG received from the Chromecast [00007fd72cc05d70] stream_out_chromecast stream out debug: PONG received from the Chromecast [00007fd72cc05d70] stream_out_chromecast stream out debug: PONG received from the Chromecast
Any idea what can be wrong?

The video I was trying to cast from Youtube opened in vlc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXp4GnC1Z3Q
