Hello everybody!
This video will show you how to cast the screen of a smartphone or tablet PC to a computer
with Windows 10.
Windows 10 has got an option to send the picture from a smartphone or tablet PC to the display
of a laptop or computer through a Wi-Fi connection.
The main requirement for the computer you are going to use for showing the picture from
a smartphone is to support Miracast technology.
This support depends on the Wi-Fi adapter used by the computer.
In this video, we’ll be talking about Android, as Apple devices work in a different format
which doesn’t use Miracast.
So how can you send the picture from your smartphone to the computer display without
any wires?
• Make sure your computer and smartphone are connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
If they use different networks, such connection cannot be established.
• After that, open the Action Center on the computer with Windows 10 where you are
going to send the picture from the smartphone. • and select Connect.
• As a result, the window of searching and connecting wireless displays will open.
At this moment, please pay attention.
If your computer doesn’t support Miracast, Windows will tell you about it.
It means that you can’t establish a wireless connection with such computer.
• If there is no such notice, click on the link Projecting to this PC.
• Projecting settings will open.
• Change the first setting to “Available everywhere”
• and the other setting to “Every time a connection is requested”
• Set the PIN code if you want.
• Or rename the computer.
Now let’s move to the smartphone or tablet PC.
• Go to Settings / Wireless and networks / More / Wireless display
Your device must have a function called Wireless display or Cast screen (as in some versions
of Android).
Android devices support this function beginning with version 4.2.
In various versions of Android or firmware by various manufacturers, the menu items may
differ a bit.
Find Wireless connection, Wireless display or Cast screen.
• Enable this function.
• As a result, your device should detect a computer with an activated projecting function
and show its name.
I mean the name you have given to this computer in the projecting menu.
• Click on the computer name to connect projecting.
As a result, your computer will ask for permission to connect projecting.
Confirm the request.
The connecting process starts.
Projecting is on.
Now the computer screen will show everything that’s happening in the smartphone screen.
The sound is also transmitted, • so you can stream your favorite game,
• as well as photos, videos or even watch a film.
To disconnect the smartphone from the computer: • Go to Settings / Wireless and networks
/ More / Wireless display • Click on the active connection with the
computer • and confirm your decision to disconnect.
• On the computer, set projecting to “Always Off.”
That is all for now.
