[Developer Post] - Videostream Freezes the Tab (Antivirus/Firewall help)
-
If Videostream is locking up the tab, freezing/crashing Chrome, not responding to clicks or isn't outputting audio, you've come to the right place!
This problem is caused by an anti-virus running on your computer. Keep in mind that most computers with Windows 7 or above come with "Window Defender" which is an anti virus.
Before you go any further, just disabling your Anti-Virus will not work, you need to make exceptions for Videostream to run correctly!
Click the name of your anti-virus below and we'll give you the steps to get up and running:

@qing Hey! The screenshot didn't upload quite right, would you mind trying again???

Avast antivirus isnt on your list. We havent got any problem concerning the antivirus program before now.
We only have problem that your program is registrating two name of our chromecast and not one, so that is a problem every time we want to see anything thru videostream, and that REALLY annoying. -

Hey Baker, if you update your cast extension it should be good to go! I think this was a bug on Google's side and they seem to have pushed a fix today to address this!
-
I always have to turn off ***
- windows fire wall*** to run this program. I have installed the exceptions and opened the ports per your instructions. Your fix only worked for a week or two, yet I still pay for the development. Can you send the instructions as to how to open those ports again in windows fire wall.
I ran the Home network troubleshooter several times, at last it said the time was out of sync, so I synced it and the problem seem to cleared up now.
Windows Firewall 7 is not user friendly at all.

I have tried the various remedies to no avail. Is there any way someone might be able to give real-time chat assistance? Please advise.
Thank you,
