♨ eWeLink CAST Updates: V2.22 on July 31 - more devices supported

please tell me why it might be displayed this way and not as it should be

hi, what’s your eWeLink CAST app version? have you tried to use a web browser to see if the content display?
and seems you are in system’s dark mode or high contrast mode, have you tried to disable it?

Exiting dark mode did not solve the problem. I pasted the link into the search bar of my browser and this is what I get. Version 2.1.1

Hi,
I’ve just test the youtube and spotify and the iframe code works.
can you check if your code works on the CAST website:
https://cast.ewelink.cc/

no, it does not work.

hi, the iframe tiles limit is 5, do you create more than 5? or just the 2 shows in the pic and they don’t work?

for spotify, please adjust the percentage or select Compact

or just remove the % in the width param filed.

Why there are so many \ and | in your embedding code?
Please try to move all of them and have a try, it should be work then.

Thanks for the help. Everything worked out. Spotify works, but YouTube is not interesting to me. But there is a note about the size of the Spotify tiles. Occupies unused, useful space. The following note and wish in general regarding the cast panel. Tiles that do not indicate turning devices on and off (various sensors and scenarios, also dual r3) are the same color as the controlled devices in the turned on state (sockets and switches), which in turn is a little confusing and confusing when I check what is turned on in the house. Also, motion and presence sensors are designated the same way, by a moving person. They need to be separated by detection. In general, motion and presence sensors need to be highlighted somehow when detecting a person or movement. As an option, you can make some kind of contrasting contour illumination of the tiles so that it catches the eye, and if it also blinks and pulsates, then it will be even better!!!

I understand that Spotify requires a paid subscription? It only lets you listen to part of the song, not to mention the album.

for now we only provide 2 sizes tiles and may not compatible will all content from various platform, for Spotify, if you use the single song code, it will fill the frame, but the playlist and artist do not, and seems Spotify provides fixed size only, changing the width and height does not work.

thank you for the feedback, we are planning on optimizing the highlight of security related devices.

Possibly due to regional differences in spotify services, I can play the full song, with VPN connected to the US.

and by the way, seems you use CAST on a tablet, it is suggested to use eWeLink CAST app for better experience.

The cast could have a panel with only energy data.
It would be nice to be able to export the energy dashboard that already exists on the WEB to the Cast.

A post was merged into an existing topic: Cast, Showing each channel as a button for a 4CHPROR3

Hello!!! Once I already raised the question regarding the instant display of cameras in the cast panel, so that the camera image would be displayed immediately after the turn, so that it would not be necessary to activate it manually. Is there any news??? And when can we expect the elimination of problems with too long loading of the image from the cameras? Well, it takes too long to wait for the image to appear!!! It also happens that after some time of starting the camera image, it disappears. The network is stable and this only happens in the cast, this is not observed on the phone.

Just discovered that support for cam 2 appeared and was immediately disappointed!!! For what reason is it impossible to enable broadcasting of more than 1 camera??? Well, this is some kind of madness!!! And once again I want to draw attention to the display of images from cameras when opening the panel!!! What kind of security system can we talk about if additional manipulations are required for viewing???

If I understanding right, you want the CAST acting like a NVR monitor?

I’m not sure that my wishes correspond to the nvr monitor. I just want the cameras to start broadcasting the image immediately upon cast wake-up. It is necessary to make a switch that will give users the ability to choose which cameras to launch automatically upon cast wake-up. And it is necessary to make it so that all selected cameras are displayed simultaneously, in this regard, yes, it looks like the function of the video recorder monitor!!! This is a mandatory security requirement, otherwise I don’t understand the point of having cameras in the cast panel at all, especially considering that for some reason the cameras in the cast start up quite slowly!!! And please, in the latest version of the camera, switches are placed on the camera itself, which has reduced the image. Make it so that they either disappear or are called up somehow.

Hi!

It would be a great help, if the language file for cast could also be published, so that there are more language options. I translate the iHost file once in a while and some of the users are asking for CAST translation as well.

If this is not possible as it is for iHost, I would offer to translate the file to GERMAN as a free service. Get in touch with me if intersted.

BR, MoH
