help using Stadia android app with PS3 controller on Cromecast ultra

Pollekw — Fri, 10 Apr 2020 04:44:06 GMT

Hi,

Can you help me to get playing Stadia Android with a wired PS3 controller on S10 on a Chromecast Ultra.

I can connect my controller, but the Stadia app does not see the chromecast. As the pictures show..

The help function directs me to the chromecast setting nut I get stuck at one point.

Thank you for helping!

@Pollekw Just to be clear:

The Stadia screen does not launch on your Chromecast?
Did you hit the "add Stadia to Chromecast" in the Stadia App account menu?
Does other apps recognize the Chromecast Ultra like Youtube for example?

Thanks for the information and good luck!

@Tobonaut

Indeed, The Stavia screen does not launch on my Chromecast
I hit the "add Stadia to Chromecast" in the Stadia App account menu but it does not see the Chromecast. Both are on the same WiFi (See the picture. It is in Dutch ☺)
Other apps like Spotify and Netflix recognize the Chromecast.

Thanks for helping!

@Pollekw ah okay, my Dutch is not that good. xD

Do you have any other devices in your household that you can try?

I know that sounds weird but if I found any other users that have your problem, a lot of them were able to fix this issue by using another device. Dunno why this would help, but if possible, give it a try.

@Pollekw another idea what I have is to check if the Chromecast is linked to the same Google account as your Stadia app.

@Tobonaut We have only one Chromecast (ultra) unfortunately.

@Tobonaut It should be linked to my Gmail account. I'll disconnect it and reconnect it again.

Let's see if that will be the solution.

Thanks again!

@Tobonaut Unfortunately that wasn't too solution.

Stadia is refusing to see my Chromecast in the wifi network.

Adding it manually as explained by the help function is Stadia won't work either. I still get stuck at point 2.

@Pollekw That's a pitty.

If no one else has an idea, it might be the best idea to contact the Stadia support directly, e.g. via the chat:

https://support.google.com/stadia/contact/stadia_chat

I'll come back to you if I have another guess.
