*Castify does not modify or transcode the video sources. It only sends original source to your streaming receivers unlike a screen mirroring app. Therefore the compatibility of the videos are dependent on your device.

-If a video is not playing or a disconnection occurs it could be several reasons:
1. The ISP(Internet Server Provider)
2. The source website itself
3. Insufficient WIFI signal strength

Troubleshooting:
-Ensure your WIFI connection is stable and on the same network. Casting to TV requires a good internet connection.
-Most connection problems can be resolved by restarting the streaming receiver and phone/tablet.
-Some video sources are time-based meaning they only work for a period of time. For example resume watching a video hours later may not work.
-Open the url in the System Browser to ensure the source and site is working properly there.
-Flash websites are not supported by streaming device manufacturers.
