Chromecast's always listed as DIAL?

[ds8k]

It seems like unless I recently casted something to my devices, ConnectSDK only detects them as DIAL devices.

@ds8k This should be working correctly in the 1.6.0 release

This seems not to be working yet.

Same issue here on android.. I'm going to try on iOS.

Same issue on Android 5.1.1 and ConnectSDK 1.6.
If you run the Cordova-API-Sampler first, Chromecast always listed as DIAL. Hide the App an start another App with, also with ConnectSDK, Cromecasts listed as DIAL/Chromecast and it works.

I have also the same Problem, is there any kind of workaround or hot fix for this problem, i m also using the 1.6?

I have implemented a Hotfix. Replace this methode in CastDiscoveryProvider.java and everything is find.

@OverRide
public void onRouteChanged(MediaRouter router, RouteInfo route) {
super.onRouteChanged(router, route);

        CastDevice castDevice = CastDevice.getFromBundle(route.getExtras());
        String uuid = castDevice.getDeviceId();

        ServiceDescription foundService = foundServices.get(uuid);

        boolean isNew = foundService == null;
        boolean listUpdateFlag = false;

        /* ARD: Hotfix für Chromecast */
        if (isNew) {
            foundService = new ServiceDescription(CastService.ID, uuid,
                    castDevice.getIpAddress().getHostAddress());
            foundService.setFriendlyName(castDevice.getFriendlyName());
            foundService.setServiceID(CastService.ID);

            listUpdateFlag = true;

            isNew = false;
        }

        if (!isNew) {
            foundService.setIpAddress(castDevice.getIpAddress().getHostAddress());
            foundService.setModelName(castDevice.getModelName());
            foundService.setModelNumber(castDevice.getDeviceVersion());
            foundService.setModelDescription(route.getDescription());
            foundService.setPort(castDevice.getServicePort());
            foundService.setDevice(castDevice);

            if (!foundService.getFriendlyName().equals(castDevice.getFriendlyName())) {
                foundService.setFriendlyName(castDevice.getFriendlyName());
                listUpdateFlag = true;
            }

            foundService.setLastDetection(new Date().getTime());

            foundServices.put(uuid, foundService);

            if (listUpdateFlag) {
                for (DiscoveryProviderListener listenter: serviceListeners) {
                    listenter.onServiceAdded(CastDiscoveryProvider.this, foundService);
                }
            }
        }
    }

The above correction causes my app to close itself. Any idea?
