Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have a Samsung S7 edge, I believe that's what you're referring to; when casting to the ultra I am able to go to other apps and shut off the screen altogether without disrupting casting.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you choose the screen mirroring option, then no you can't change and keep playing. Most apps and video players will have a little icon at the top that you can select that will cast the video to the chrome cast and allow you freedom on your device.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I routinely do this while on the treadmill with the S7 edge and chromecast and ultra. I think the latest version of android may have more to do with it.
