Please describe your bug
When casting high resolution video to Chromecast 2nd gen (which supports up to 1080p) playback will not start and will only show a black screen. The cause might be related to the resolution not being detected / set properly.
I discussed this on the Jellyfin forum, link for completeness: Jellyfin Forum Link

Same problem on the android mobile version using integrated player.
The Integrated player unable to scale while allowing Jellyfin to transcode at a higher resolution, resulting in an black screen with only audio.
If I set the maximum transcode resolution (in playback settings) it solve the problem. (not user friendly)

This may be at least partially https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/11640.
But I am seeing issues with chromecast playback for any transcode, even just remuxing and even if the transcode process completes and completes quickly. So there may be another issue here. I am also seeing this for non high-resolution content.

I resolved my Chromecast issue by switching to the Chromecast Unstable channel. (User Settings → Playback → Google Cast Version)
With this version it is now using HLS and doesn't just hang.
