No cast on my new computer, but I have it on the old one

1

I have gone to setting/extensions/media router and turned that on, but still nothing. Rebooted Brave and rebooted the computer, still no luck. Seems I don’t have it in Chrome any longer also. Running windows 11.

Hello @rideaway , I also had a bit of trouble finding the new location of the Cast button after a recent update. Below is a screenshot that may help you locate it!

@rideaway things constantly get moved around in updates. There are four ways to be able to cast now

  1. From Save and Share in the hamburger menu.

  2. From the context menu by right clicking on a website

  3. From the Cast button. image. This appears next the extension and wallet buttons. There’s no automatic way to make it appear, but whenever you cast something it will appear. You can then right click and choose Always Show Icon and it will remain. So like my top looks like:

  4. From the Media button image. This only appears when you have some form of media, such as videos or musijc, playing. Tapping it opens menu like below, where you see Cast to a device is available underneath.
