My 77" s90f has been going to screensaver constantly during google cast since the tv updated 2 days ago. Worked flawlessly everytime casting everyday since new until after I got an update completed message on screen 2 days ago. Now it goes to screensaver while streaming and I have keep pressing the remote button to get out of screensaver. Please roll back the latest update!!!

Hello everyone,
we understand how frustrating this may be with the limitations . We ask that if you all who are still dealing with the issue can send us a private message with the model of the television as well as the current version of the software running on your television? We sincerely apologize for the delay in response and any inconvenience this has caused. We want to thank you for your patience.

As of tonight google cast is working again on my 77" s90f. It still shows firmware 1203 but Samsung must have sent a patch somehow

- Restart "casting" devices = Unplug the tv from the outlet for a few minutes, restart casting device as well.
- Ensure screen mirroring features/settings are enabled correctly
After exploring all possible options and still no fix, you could factory reset the TV.

I see so many people with this problem. ITS ANNOYING. But I don't see any real fixes besides the restart everything suggestions that have been around since computers began.
Screensaver kicks in when casting from any of my 3 Samsung devices.

Just to report with frustration same thing on a <1 month old S93F. Worked correctly for the first week or so, and then this.
Does anyone know if this is reported to the correct channel? This is just a forum, is it the right place?
-- some expression of frustration:
It is absolutely shocking that they would allow a critical feature-breaking update like this through without any quality control. Expect a rapid fix otherwise I expect a massive swell of 1* reviews for these broken "flagship" products.
Would love a workaround, currently don't see anything except an external input.

I’ve been having this issue too after I recently updated my tv, before the update I had no issues while casting to my TV.

I'm having this issue too, and like you it's right after the update. Screensaver comes on when casting. Not just when there's a still image. I'll be watching a movie or casting sports and BAM.. screensaver comes on without fail every few minutes. Tried unplugging and replugging the TV, still the same behavior. Please fix this Samsung. It makes casting impossible to use. Wont recommend this tv to anyone until this is fixed.

Il having this issue on s95f OLED. Casting works from the iPhone, but it has this problem (screen saver appears after about 2 min that I cast) with both my android phones casting to the TV.
It was working totally fine since I have the TV! I just started to have this problem recently

Running into this issue as well. Anything I cast from my phone, the TV will go to the screensaver after 2 minutes. After paying thousands of dollars for this TV, to have it work like this is ridiculous

My S85F is doing the same thing, but only when I cast directly to the TV. When I cast through a chrome cast it's fine. What's the deal?
