7.0 nougat Wi-Fi Direct / screen mirroring video playback issues within Chrome.

Reported by rybrmo...@gmail.com, Feb 28 2017

Issue description

Device name:

From "Settings > About Chrome"
Application version:
Operating system:

URLs (if applicable):

Steps to reproduce:
(1)turn on Wi-Fi 
(2)go to cast under display settings and activate screen mirroring 
(3)play a video on a website within chrome and it is choppy and not working. Constantly keep showing a second of loading Circle indicator and a second of video playback that's never ending and the only way I can get the videos to work is to disable screen mirroring with my 2015 Sony Android TV that's on the current OS version update that came through here recently. Phone has been broken with this since the update to Android nougat. My device isn't axon 7 from ZTE. The proprietary browser the ZTE has on this phone works just fine. Other browsers do not work such as Firefox dolphin Opera and so on. Sucks because I love screen mirroring to my TV to watch movies all the time and it's currently still broken and I've been complaining about this for almost a month now through the help and feedback tab of Chrome and Chrome Beta and you guys have done nothing.

Expected result:


Actual result:

Sorry about not putting my device information in their appropriate place you guys, but that's irrelevant to the fact that you have it and that this needs to be addressed please! I am on Android 7.0 that was just released on the ZTE axon 7 and I'm experiencing playback issues within Chrome when I'm viewing embedded videos on any and all websites while engaged in screen mirroring via Wi-Fi with my Sony Android TV

Based on the fact that this is using screen mirroring and that it occurs in other browsers, this doesn't appear to be an issue with Chrome, so not something we can resolve here.  Suggest you file feedback in the Google Home app when you encounter this problem, as that will be able to pull in system logs that may help in understanding the cause of this problem.
That's ridiculous because it works perfectly and the proprietary browser
for this phone. It's the Chrome based or architectural base of chrome
through other browsers that this is affecting and it's not home app because
it's not operating off of Chromecast which is network-based. Remember I
said Wi-Fi Direct or Miracast
If you're using Android Screen Mirroring then Chrome is not directly
responsible for the behavior you're seeing (especially if it also shows up
in other browsers like Firefox, as you mentioned).  It's quite likely an
Android system/platform issue in that case.  Given that it's WiFi Direct I
would file an Android bug:

Not sure about how to do what you are speaking on.  Could you reply with
how to do that so I can help in resolving this annoyance.  Thanks!  It
sucks because I've been trying for over a month now to get some attention
to the fact that the axon 7 updated to 7.0 and hasn't had imbeded video
playback functioning properly since.  It works in the browser that came
with the phone just fine though...
