How to return to cast screen on GoogleTV if user has exited it

[Kanuan]

I have an app that does the following:

• Connect to a chromecast
• Use LoadMediaAsync to send a image (mediatype is set to image)

I'm testing with Chromecast with GoogleTV (CCwGTV) and am noticing the following behavior: if I start casting with SharpCaster then get out of the cast screen by using the "home" or "back" buttons...:

• Casting continues running into the background, meaning disconnection is NOT triggered
  • Attempting to SetMute() or SetVolume() will work normally
• GoogleTV does not offer any way of getting back to the casting screen
  • If I'm casting a video via the CrunchyRoll app, GoogleTV will show a mini-player in the home screen that allows me to get back to the casting screen. This mini-player does not appear when using SharpCaster (at least when casting images, didn't test with videos)
• Sending a new media of the type image does not make GoogleTV switch back to the Cast screen
• Attempting to re-locate chromecasts and then connecting again to the same one the app was already connected won't make the cast screen re-appear
• For the cast screen to reappear, the SharpCaster application casting needs to be first finalized on the GoogleTV side (restarting GoogleTV or triggering a disconnection from the SharpCaster side), then re-launch from "zero" the SharpCaster app

I'd like to know if there is something I'm missing that could be used to make GoogleTV switch back

Very interesting scenario. Can you try starting another application than the one you initially use and see if that does something?
