If you are unable to turn off your tv with a separate google home do this: name your device TV and say you group it in your basement. Say ok Google turn off basement tv. This will allow you to keep your google home on while your using your tv that has built in google home. luckily all of my smart devices are in my basement. Eventually instead of saying ok google turn off basement tv, now I'am able to say ok google turn off tv and it works, previously if I would have said ok google turn off tv it didn't work. It took me like half a day to get this to work.
I was having the same issue. Even though I could cast to my Sony TV I found that the TV wasn't showing up as a part of my devices within the Google Home App. To add it as a device make sure the the built-in Chromecast setting is enabled on the TV, then go to your home app and click the settings (gear icon) on the main page. Next go to Rooms and Devices you should be able to assign your Sony TV to a room. This will move it to your Home and enable all of the supported features e.g. use TV to control smart lights etc. For some reason the Android TV creates its own "Home" in a sense during setup even if you use the same Google account and so it just needs to moved from that "Home" to the one you have already set up in the mobile app. I hope that helps!
@@BTate Thanks, this helped me figure out how to add my TCL Android TV to my Google Home app. Now I need to figure out how to add it to a speaker group. It doesn’t show as an option even after upgrading to 1.50+.
@@bzmills I have the same issue with my Sony TV. I've been led to believe that this feature just isn't supported yet by TVs with chromecast built-in. There will be a major update in 2021 though and so I hope the feature will be added then.
Did u figure it out? I'm looking for the same solution.... Would appreciate it if you could share the steps and settings that u changed in ur tv.. thanks
Hi, i have an issue with my TCL android tv (built in chromecast) and google nest mini. I’ve repeated the installation even reset my tv to factory setting but it can not be controlled by google nest. It connected to the tv, but only show the volume circle. Everytime i give order to my nest, it say device not found. Can you help? Thanks in advance.

i need adapter google chromecast for my google nest mini? because in my TV, In settings I see something called chromecast built in but when i turn it on nest mini doesn't recognize it :(
@Lord Hill it does recognise my voice but as you know, or probably you don't, it does to give me personalised answers. Like where is my phone or what's are my reminders.
@@TheNikesh85 yes It works on my TCL. On and off. Also I can adjust volume. What I did first was turned off tv completely. Once it re booted it worked. I tried to do other commands like changing channels. It worked but it's easier just using the remote.
@@TheNikesh85 everytime I walk into bedroom and say " hey google tun on TV" and I also say " hey google turn off tv" I do have a google nest in the bedroom and it receives my commands. You can use your phone as well. In google home I named my TV to TV. It was easiest so it understands my voice.
I am Having Mi Tv 4 Pro, When I am saying switch off or switch on, it is getting switched off and on , but it is switching on and off quite different from that we do it from remote, It is getting switched on instantaneously and It is getting switched off instantaneously, My query over here is it really getting switched off or is it getting switching off the screen

Hi there can Google assistant change channel via voice?
You're supposed to mute when you say "OK Google" because it wreaks havoc with Google home devices when trying to watch the tutorial. Very annoying.

Yes you can as long as both devices on the same network

Turn on CEC in TV settings. Different brand TVs name it differently so look it up. Google has instructions for this.
I was watching this tutorial and when you said ok google, my google home reacted

Or non smart led tv ?
It works with android tv i guess
When you post that kind of videos make sure to mute "OK GOOGLE" because my home goes bananas.
