Connect a desktop pc to a Samsung smart tv

I'm trying to connect a older Desktop pc with Window 10 to my Samsung f8000 smart tv via wifi or LAN. My desktop pc is ethernet cabled to the Sky home hub and the smart tv ethernet cabled to the hub as well. My smart tv appears in the connected devices
list but it doesn't seem to connecting, is it because I need a wireless dongle??

 

Samsung Smart TV

"I have a Samsung Smart TV (2013) and an HP laptop running Windows 8.1 (with option to upgrade to 10). I wish to watch internet based product on my TV which is not available with the native Samsung apps, but can
be seen on the laptop. Samsung tell me that HDMI to HDMI will not work, OI need svideo. Is there a way to convert HDMI from computer to Svideo?"
