    Best way to stream video files to TV without HDMI?


    Hello, what is the best way to stream video files to my TV? I tried W+P while Miracast was on my LG TV but it failed to connect everytime. Is there another way to go about this?

    I'm not a fan of HDMI and would love a permanent solution. Thanks

    Cast to Device Streaming (not mirroring) video avi & mp4 files from PC to Smart TV

    I'm trying to stream videos from my pc to my smart tv (not mirror). Sometimes I can play the video completely, sometimes during the video it stops (get an Error Message Cannot Play).

    I have a Windows 10 PC (Build 1607) with some Video AVI & MP4 files , and a Sony Bravia 4K (XBR 49x830C) Smart TV. Also have a Wireless Display Adapter V2 connected to HDMI port 1.

    I've setup a HomeGroup, and Windows Media Player for Streaming. The Choose media streaming options for computers and devices window lists; Media programs on this PC and remote connects, my 2 PCs, and XBR-49X830C. (This tells me the PC sees the Smart TV over
    WIFI. I go to Settings on the Smart TV, it sees the PC.)

    I then right-click the Video file on my pc, click Cast to Device, then the click XBR-49X830C. I get the XBR-49X830C Sony Corporation MediaRenderer with the video listed.

    My problem is sometimes the video will play all the way to the end, other times it will stop during the movie with the error message cannot play. More times than not, the video will stop with the error message.

    streaming video


    Hi. I am running windows 10 and want to stream the video on my PC with my TV which are both on the same network.
    I had used Samsung smart view but even that has stopped since I updated to 10.
    I have tried to add the TV to my home group but that doesn`t work either.
    Any suggestions on the simplest way to stream from PC to TV.
