Hi @Anonymous User
I won't be much further help sorry.
Hopefully somebody else on the forum will come to your rescue.
I am guessing you have tried removing the power to your Chromecast and Router for a minute or so before rebooting them (even if other Apps are running fine).
You could try NowTV live chat.

Hi @Anonymous User
Don't know the answer sorry, because i don't use my Chromecast dongles when streaming Video (only use Chromecast for music streaming).
Have you tried deleting the existing NowTV App from your phone and download a fresh version of the NowTV App ?
What i would try, is if you have a spare smartphone or tablet to hand try a different casting devices just to see if the same problem persists.
Because you mentioned Hula, i am guessing you are using some sort of VPN service, maybe try disabling it and test out the 50fps NowTV Playback (assuming you have a NowTV Boost Pass when watching the six Sky Sports channels that offers 50fps which is Main Event, PL, Football, Cricket, Golf and F1).
