'Stop casting' item in the overflow media controls is confusing

Project Member Reported by avayvod@chromium.org, Jan 9 2017

Issue description

The way it sounds, it should immediately stop casting the video. However, it shows the controller dialog instead where user can stop casting or change volume and so on.

Not sure what the ideal wording would be or if we should just stop casting in this case - would be inconsistent with the cast button in the controls bar though which doesn't have words next to it so the user would expect the cast dialog to show the same way it works in other Android apps. Maybe just leave it as 'Cast' (don't know what the policy on ... is now, it used to be an indicator of showing some UI vs just doing something).

@beccahughes, Is this something that is being addressed in the UX rework, or should this bug be rerouted?

Thanks Anton! Would you be able to provide screenshots for us? I agree that my expectation was that the 'stop casting' button would immediately stop the cast, though I also admit that we didn't deep dive into this piece (and kept the existing behavior without realizing that it was different than expected).
My understanding is that the new media controls will not show "Stop Casting" but just "Cast" which would address this issue, right?
Yes I think that is the case

Er - I'm not entirely sure. Amy - would you have a chance to touch base with Becca today or tomorrow? 
comment 3 and 4 sound right, the new media controls should solve for this confusion. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1wso086QMuxxSyIJPuuv2T5aJOn3Mlwo4c9KhfAdMdGw/edit#slide=id.g2a8e363ddd_1_0

Media Controls: Rename "stop casting" to "cast"

Rename "stop casting" to "cast" in line with the spec for the new media
controls. On the old controls, show cast instead of "stop casting"
because we show a settings dialog instead of actually stopping casting.
