apparently yes, although i havn't tried. So long as your tablet or computer with content is connected to the same network/wifi it should be able. I know the chromecast ($35 ) is designed for that. This one however is designed as a media player mostly and i find it most reliable to use with a micro SD card full of content

The best way to do this is to use a computer or a laptop. Nathan B is correct -- TVs don't support this kind of tech. Use a Chromecast and you can project whatever is playing on your computer's Chrome Browser onto the tv screen. Can do the same with your Android Phone/Tablet but may not be flash-supportive devices. You can also just HDMI your computer/laptop onto the TV to play downloaded movies.

I wondered the same thing. It took me a month to figure out- and then believe it's really that simple- that YES, I can simply connect my high-end laptop to my mid-range flat screen TV, by HDMI to HDMI ports on each device, and stream anything I could get on my laptop, directly onto my flatscreen TV... But, why on earth WOULD I WANT TO? YES- You CAN do it, but why bother? If you do use your PC as a live stream (to TV) device, then every time you want to watch live-stream TV (vs. cable TV), you have to remove your laptop from it's current location (ie, maybe you were using it earlier,

I use the dock with my HP laptop and one of my peripherals is a Nexus 7. My Nexus will charge and docks just fine with my laptop.

Paul, Hi; I use the Nexus 7 Dock for charging the tablet (and of course, as a convenient tablet holder). The dock is permanently connected to the electrical outlet. Data can be transferred from the computer (Desktop or Laptop) via USB cable to the side USB outlet of the tablet while it is in the docking station. No problem. Dave

From what I've read, the Nexus 7 does not have a micro HDMI port, so this particular cable will not work. However, the newest Nexus 7 does support a "SlimPort" which is a separate device that will allow you to connect the Nexus 7 to an HDMI compatible display.

Sorry I don't know if it works with a nexus 7 but it works great with my Samsung 3 tablet. It has a normal usb.

This cable is for use to transfer pictures, movies, etc.....from a Flash Drive to your Tablet.You will need the Nexus MEdia Importer app on goole Play.

I bought that one as well and returned it. From what i gathered in the emails I received was that not all devices that support slimport do so with vga. I went with the hdmi version for my nexus and it worked perfectly until a student broke it.

This cable is a standard Micro HDMI. From what I understand, the Nexus7 does not have an HDMI port. Some people have reported that they have had success with the Analogix SlimPort SP1003 adapter on the Nexus7.

Will this work on my Google Nexus 7 2nd generation tablet to connect to my HD Panasonic 3D TV?

"Connects a Nexus 4 or LG Optimus G Pro phone to an HDTV!" As mentioned in the product description, it should work. The port looks like the same.

This device has only RCA type connections. 3 device inputs to I TV output. I suppose you could hook up your laptop if you had a VGA to RCA adaptor. Don't know if there is such a thing.

As Petersan mentioned, you may need an app. I use Nexus Media Importer Pro with my Nexus 7 and I know of one person using it with another Asus tablet and a Verizon Droid phone (unknown model). There's a free version to try but if it works for you I highly recommend the pro version. This is the only app of its kind that does not require root.

I use the USB cord that came with my nexus 7. You can plug it into an outlet or you computers USB.

The cable did not work on my Nexus 7 either. You may be correct... the tablet may need to be rooted. Unfortunately, I'm not smart enough to know how to do that. Sorry.
