Windows 10: Viera TV can't connect to Windows 10 anymore

Hi,


I have a Viera EX600 and was able to stream media from my Windows 10 pc (acting as a server). My TV and PC are connected through ethernet cables in the home network. There are specific folders in the PC which are shared within the network and these folders contain media files. The PC (server) is registered in the "network sharing" tab in the TV and I was able to connect prior to the April 1083 update. Now, whenever I try to connect to the PC, after keying in the username/password, it just says "server not found". I've search high and low and tried different solutions but to no avail. I hope someone here can provide a solution. TIA. Cheers

Connecting an Older Model Panasonic Viera Large Screen Tv to My Windows 10 PC

I've searched existing posts of similar topics as mine. I've been unable to find the information I'm looking for so pardon me if I ask for advice that's already been given to others with similar but not quite the same circumstances.

I've recently gone from being a long time Apple computer user to a Windows 10 PC user. Even with my previous Mac computer I was
unable to get that computer to display on my Panasonic Viera TV but at least then I was able to get my computer to detect the Panasonic TV that I had connected to it via an HDMI cable.

Now, with my new Window 10 computer I had high hopes of getting it to work but, no such luck. My new PC will not detect the connected Panasonic TV. The TV itself is an older model but it does have the one lone HDMI port and it appears to be in good working
order.

The only thing I can think of that would keep my Windows PC from detecting my Panasonic TV is the chance that I don't have the correct setting established within the TV setup screen itself. I've watched several video tutorials on how it's done online but
none of them (even ones featuring Panasonic Viera TVs) show the exact same TV setup menus so it's hard to tell what setup details I should be using on my TV. The Windows PC setup menus are pretty straight forward; it's just that my computer isn't detecting
the fact that I even have my TV connected to it.

I am using a powered HDMI splitter in order to connect my main monitor (ACER) as well as the large screen Panasonic TV. I've tried disconnecting my Acer-Monitor and just using the TV as my computer monitor alone but that doesn't work either. I've also
tried swapping ports on the splitter thinking perhaps one of ports was bad but that made no difference either. I'm good at a lot of technical things but, working with computers and computer hardware just isn't one of them.

My Windows 10 computer detects everything else that's connected to it, just not the TV. It leaves me scratching my head. Again: it's an older model Panasonic Viera. It only has one HDMI port so it's hard to believe I've connected it incorrectly. Any
suggestions from you more knowledgeable Windows users would be appreciated.

 

Laptopc can´t connect to TV

Hi,

Please reply to the questions mentioned below in order to assist you in a better way.

• Are you connecting the PC and TV using a HDMI cable?
• Did you make any changes prior to the issue?

I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.

• First you need a video cable for making the physically connection. For better picture quality, you should connect the computer to the TV using standard VGA ports or via the DVI to HDMI cable provided your TV supports these ports.
• Open the "display settings" in your computer and activate output to the TV screen. You can either mirror content of your computer on the TV or extend the display just like a dual monitor screen.
• Pick up your TV remote and switch to "External Inputs" from the menu. You will need to change the default "Video 1" to a different selection which may be "HDMI 1" or "Video 2" depending on how you have made the connection.

Important: Make sure you connect the cable to the TV before turning on the computer as sometimes it may fail to recognize external display.

You may also need to change the screen resolution of your TV using the Display settings in your Control Panel else the picture may appear distorted.

Please revert if you face any issues with PC not connecting to TV.
