    Cast to Device/Amazon Fire Stick


    Hello, I've been trying several times to get this to work and I cannot. I have the amazon fire TV stick and windows 10 computer.
    I've tried right clicking a video and choosing cast to device and then amazon stick...I've tried playing the video in movies and TV app and clicking the three dots at the bottom right and selecting cast to device and choosing the amazon stick still won't work. The Amazon stick is in mirror mode as well. I've tried 3 different ways even downloaded DivX player.
    I'm not even sure I'm doing it correctly but I know searching google brings up a method that is not available anymore.

    Any help appreciated.

    EDIT: Adding additional info...Dxdiag says "Miracast: Not Supported by Graphics driver" I have an Nvidia Geforce GTX 745 fully updated graphics driver.

    :)

    mirroring windows 10 pc to samsung smart tv

    First you'll need a computer that has mira-cast abilities, or you'll need to buy a dongle to plug in (similar to a Wireless HDMI video stick, or Chrome Cast, or the Amazon fire stick, etc). If your computer has it built-in, you're already there.

    Chromecast and Fire TV Stick not getting detected in Windows 10

    I am trying to mirror my Windows 10 PC using both a Google Chromecast and the Amazon Fire Stick but my PC wouldn't see either device.

    Please advise how to make these devices work to mirror/cast videos from my PC
