When I first tried to get Mythfrontend going on my Chromecast with Google
TV I kept getting Unable to connect. The way I fixed this in the end was
(bizarrely) to only connect with WiFi rather than an ethernet cable. If
you're using an ethernet connection you might want to try this. I have no
idea why it solved it because my WiFi and ethernet are on the same subnet.
I also had a slight issue installing initially because I think I tried to
install the 64 bit version. From what I remember it was fine with the 32
bit version. I have v31 installed. I got the APKs from
https://dl.orangedox.com/pCBmBm/
HTH.
