How do I connect my laptop to my smart TV wirelessly? - Android TV General

Hi friends,
I need a little help. I bought a new Android TV, but I am not able to connect it with my laptop.
It could be a problem with the television or laptop.
So I was wondering if a standard laptop is required for that or if I need to install any third-party apps for this because someone suggested I get a smart processor laptop, such as an Intel evo, for this.
Is this mandatory to have an Intel Evo laptop to connect to a smart TV?.

Im sure any laptop running windows can connect to Smart Tv's?
Both must be on same wifi or tv Via WIre and laptop via wifi?
In windows settings look under Devices if tv not there click on add device and it should search and when you
see you're tv click on it to add? they you should be able to mirror you're pc etc?

Sling box or CABLE on your Computer

Looking for a software program or hardware that i can use to watch my cable TV on my computers when I'm away from home. looks like the Slingbox only enables one device to use the cable signal...not very helpful.
Any suggestions on products? Looking for someone who has an existing set-up.
Thanks,
R.
You can only watch Slingbox on one device(computer or mobile phone) at a time? It can be installed on multiple devices though. How many computers do you need to watch tv on at time? I have Slingbox pro and I think it's great.
If you have a media center or vista pc then

Is it possible to use DOPOD818pro as a USB-WIFI?

Hi
Can anyone tell me how can i use DOPOD818pro as a USB-WIFI to a Windows PC.
I already know about using DOPOD818pro as a WIFI modem for internet from Windows PC.
I know buying a new USB-WIFI & plug in to the WIndows PC, is the easy way.
But is it possible to use DOPOD818pro as a USB-WIFI?
Thanks in advance
PS:
I plan to use a software Remote Disk on a Macbook Air.
Remote Disc lets us wirelessly use or “borrow” the optical drive of a Windows PC in the vicinity.
The Macbook Air have a WIFI IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n compatible.
But my Windows PC do not have a WIFI.
I also would like to know if this is possible. I have a Diamond and would like to use it as a USB WiFi dongle so I can connect my Desktop to my laptop wirelessly. Mainly so I don't have to dig out an Ethernet switch and use cables.

DLNA

It's so simple to setup DLNA, to send your picture/video to a TV via computer. Why are people still trying to connect with a TV Out cable.

Have you used it with Vibrant?
I've never been able to use the DLNA with any degree of success.

The one time that I witnessed someone trying to use it with their TV, it ended up being an epic failure with tons of stuttering and his phone eventually needing to be restarted. I'm not too sure if it was his Samsung Plasma or our phone's inability to stream it properly.
Anyone else have success with trying it out?
Isn't the issue that your router needs to also be DLNA compliant?
I don't really know what I'm talking about lol, but I was in the market for a new router recently and I kept reading online that the router has to be DLNA compliant to be able to DLNA stuff.
Maybe people here aren't using a DLNA compliant router, so they can't send stuff successfully?

I have a standard Linksys router with Wi-Fi, my basic setup is as follow:
1. Install DLNA onto all computers that I want to link-to. http://www.samsung.com/global/allshare/pcsw/index.html
2. Make sure all computers and TVs with DLNA are on the same network.
a. TVs that are not DLNA capable then I connect them to a computer via HDMI.​3. Run Samsung Allshare on computer/TV
a. Phone, computer, and TV will see what is ON via the network.​4. Select methods of playlist link:
a. Phone to Computer
b. Computer to Phone
c. Control Computer playlist via Phone​

Media Share to TV

Hi
I have an HTC Evo 4g that allows me to wireless play content on my dlna tv with HTC Media Share.
Tried everything with clear.fi and media server on the acer but cannot get it working.
On latest stock 3.2.1 rooted.
Anyone managed ?
I have had no problems using Clear Fi
tv Wired or wireless or behind a switch
It works as well on my tv /xbox that is wireless.. We have a very large home network in the house.. well beyond the 4 ports of the Netgear router.So the tvs in bedrooms that are wired network. Are behind a switch..(network hub) sometimes i have to reset the router to get one of them to see the tablet or the windows media center from my server pc.. its a Sanyo 47 inch lcd tv. my samsung Tv howerver on the same switch Works awesome with no setup or frustrations..
We use this feature very often.. I think its a problem with the sanyo. but cant say for sure because there is no place i have found to see the network settings .. they are all automatic and cant see or adjust ..
cheap built lame but costly tv...

So guys as you see its interesting scenario and if we work together we can accomplish something really assume
Really appreciate your help, Thanks
There are some computers that can act as a bluetooth "headphone", I'm one of the lucky ones.
Hang on while I search for my bluetooth drivers...
Bluetooth Radio by Qualcomm Atheros
Driver for my Asus N56: http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/DriversForWin8/Bluetooth/Bluetooth_Atheros_Win8_64_Z800206.zip
It appears that most of the Atheros bluetooth cards support this feature.
Thanks AmeesingNoob
But the thing is that I already got a Bluetooth USB connected to my PC working as a Hands free, so from the PC itself I can do Voice call through the PC speaker and headset but my trouble is that I can’t do this through the Remote laptop that is connected to this PC
So it would be like this:
Mobile Phone Sound > A2DP > Computer 1 > Computer 2

Am I right?
Exactly,
the first connection is between the mobile and the Computer 1 which it is a USB connection, and the second one is between Computer 1 and Computer 2 which it is a LAN / WAN connection.
Ah. Sounds like something I could use too.
I did some searches on Google and browsed some forums; found this.
PulseAudio is a sound server, a background process accepting sound input from one or more sources (processes or capture devices) and redirecting it to one or more sinks (sound cards, remote network PulseAudio servers, or other processes). -- Wikipedia

Please note that this software only runs partially (command line, no gui) on Windows. It was written for Linux computers.

Good luck!
