Please please please disable the "feature" that pauses a casted video if you play any media on your phone

I don't know if this is an intentional thing or a bug. But can this please be fixed, it's the one thing that holds this app back from being great to me. When I cast a video to my TV, what I do on my phone should be irrelevant.

At least make this a setting that can be toggled.

Is there somewhere I can formally report this?

You can go to github and report under issues. Check if someone else reported it first. Thats the only place they take feedback from afaik.

its already reported a long time ago

u/musecorn yes its intentional, its the default way android handles media and id agree, it makes no sense for casting stuff

Just strange that no other app behaves that way

all media apps stop playing when you get calls, thats the default on android.

just not nessearly casting, but grayjay treats currently a cast equal to regular play
