@krishna415741
Have you found a solution yet? I also have the same error

[VishV-Android]

Getting same error.

[VishV-Android]

@krishna415741 @theduc0x I found a solution for cast anything to the FireStick.

[casolorz]

@VishV-Android mind sharing what the solution is?

[VishV-Android]

@casolorz If you have included Connect-SDK module in your project then you'll be able to manage this:

Firstly, you need to download latest AmazonFling SDK from here,
https://developer.amazon.com/docs/apps-and-games/sdk-downloads.html#fling

Then find AmazonFling.jar in libs folder in Connect-SDK module.
For .jar file location, see this reference https://developer.amazon.com/docs/fling/setting-up-your-amazon-fling-development-environment-for-android.html

Now, just overwrite your newer AmazonFling.jar with older one.

[casolorz]

Thanks.

I have one device that seems to always have issues finding the FireTV. It does find the DIAL service but not the Fling.

[VishV-Android]

@kun510 Could you please elaborate that what kind of issue you are facing and what you want to do?

[kun510]

@VishV-Android

When I connect fire tv using DIAL, the device list shows up and I see it. but when I want to connect using Fling, it doesn't display my fireTV device anymore, but when I put log in the start function of FireTVDiscoveryProvider, it still works but it doesn't display on the device.

fun getDiscoveryManager() {
val mDiscoveryManager = DiscoveryManager.getInstance()
try {
//FireTVService
mDiscoveryManager.registerDeviceService(
FireTVService::class.java,
FireTVDiscoveryProvider::class.java)
mDiscoveryManager.pairingLevel = DiscoveryManager.PairingLevel.ON
mDiscoveryManager.setServiceIntegration(true)
DiscoveryManager.getInstance().start()
} catch (e: ClassNotFoundException) {
e.printStackTrace()
}
}

[VishV-Android]

@kun510 do you mean your FireTv is discover by DIALservice, not by FireTvService?
And as you mention that you are not able to see in device list. Which device list are you talking about, Is it connectSDK devicePicker dialog list?

And remember, Amazon Fling don't provide device IP Address.

Kindly mention that what you want to do so I can help in that way.

when i updated the latest amazon fling i was able to stream pictures and videos to fire tv. But it still gives me the error SimplePlayerException(error:com.amazon.whisperlink.service.fling.media.SimplePlayerError@c6763c0, message:Requires ACCESS_HDMI_SERVICE_ADVANCED permission)
and it just goes to error

[kun510]

@ezcode147
It is only used in Android 12, Not supported yet android 14

[ezcode147]

@kun510

@ezcode147 It is only used in Android 12, Not supported yet android 14

I am using android 11 and targetSdk 33 phone and still getting the above error. When debugging in FireTvService I get the error
java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.io.IOException: Cannot set Url on media device
