GypsyT Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 I follow instruction, found on the net, and my laptop code flashes on hotel's TV but that's it. No connection open up. My gf's Samsung phone work well (YouTube etc) but I'd like to watch movies inside my laptop. I'm not very smart on this, any easy instruction to give? Thanks.

NextG Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Should we guess the model of TV and laptop? Why stream when you can connect via HDMI? Perhaps get yourself an Android box as suggested MULTIPLE times. There are so many ways, but you don’t listen to anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravip Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 This is a simple procedure. Just let us know the model/brand of the TV & Phone. (not necessary to buy anything else, if your current stuff is ok) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GypsyT Posted December 7, 2023 Author Share Posted December 7, 2023 I should have been clear (thought it was since phone use was mentioned... but wasn't); Want to stream WIRELESSLY. I don't see TV on laptop's "Multible displays" menu where it should connect. It shows on my gf's phone and is one click deal to connect. YouTube has many instructions. I have tried many but no luck. Something is missing on my laptop, not showing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LosLobo Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) Windows +K will get you Cast and then select your display ie your TV! You may have to accept the connection on your TV. Laptop and TV need to be on same network. This works for LG C9 TV and others with Miracast™ technology. Edited December 7, 2023 by LosLobo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you imagine that anyone can tell you exactly what to do otherwise? If Windows key + K doesn’t work for you, you’ll have to give more details or just solve the problem yourself.

Semantics indeed. They determine whether your use of language makes any sense or not. But in all your excitement, you failed to notice…that I was the very first person to ask about the model/brand 😊 So the issue wasn’t about him asking about the model/brand, because I had already asked that. I was simply pointing out that it wasn’t a TV/Phone combination, but a TV/laptop combo. I couldn’t be arguing against the common sense of asking about the model/brand of the devices, since I had done so prior to anyone else asking 😊 If someone seems to think that instead a Smartphone is involved, then it is an absolutely normal thing to do to correct them. You foolishly interjected and now you have to spend time wiping the egg off your face. Edited December 11, 2023 by NextG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not about winning; I was right and you were wrong. You just jumped in on the wrong side of an argument. It was a light-hearted comment, but some people are a bit touchy, so can overreact.
