@hotcakesnewmedia posted a new topic, subject "New "Free Live TV" doesn't work with Chromecast". It read:

   First, I am talking about the new “free live tv” (the one with the music video channels and Bob Ross channel), not the DVR one. I love the idea of playing music videos instead of just streaming music for when we have guests over. However, it does not appear to work with casting. I can cast to my (chromecast) TV for any of my shows or movies, but Live TV just gives me an error and says “Something went wrong”. Tried on multiple Chromecasts, tried from multiple devices (desktop Chrome browser, Android app), tried multiple channels. Since my LG app hasn't updated to include Free Live TV, I have no way to use the live TV. Anyone know when this might be fixed?

After which, @JuiceWSA added

    Free live Tv cannot chromecast Online Media Sources
    
    > AFAIK, you can't chromecast the new live tv streaming feature. Chromecast is not listed as a supported client. https://support.plex.tv/articles/free-live-tv-streaming-overview/

    Ran into the same issue, understand it's not supported yet. Would be nice if it were coming soon!
