Add Error: This action is not supported by the default controller

Closed this issue · 1 comments

Hello,
First of all, thanks for this wonderful app.
Please pardon my ignorance, I could not find a solution for this error anywhere, hence raising it as a issue.

I am using Raspberry Pi and cast to Google Home Mini.
I have 'cast' a youtube video URL and it is playing fine.
Then I am issuing an 'add' command and I get the below error message.
Error: This action is not supported by the default controller.

Please suggest.

The problem is that Google does not make the YouTube chromecast app available to your Home Mini (and other audio-only devices). And because of this, catt is defaulting to a generic chromecast app. Queing is currently not supported with this app, hence the error message you are getting.
