You can mirror with this device, but from what I remember, there are newer devices out there today that will provide mirroring in an easier fashion than what using this device.

Yes it will but it's pretty complicated to use I get much better results with Chrome cast check that one out and its only $35

Yes this is a mirror imaging device---this will save you the use of a USB stick.
2046451
YES - with McTiVia the TV basically becomes the computer monitor! You can run your computer remotely when using the TV

Yes, we use it in our office with good result ... up to 8 computers can run the mirror software. Slight delay on transmitting, but acceptable

Y cam should work for that. I makes a recording everytime something moves and makes a thumbnail image that you see see on phone Not sure if you get the thumbnail on PC. I find it works pretty good even though drop box works better but you have to pay ~100 a year for the dropbox one week storage~ Bruce

I have used a cam recorder with 8 mm film in it and connecting it the TV a good move was seen.Also using the software that came with the mirror I was able to digitize the movie inside the computer with good results. Thereafter transferring it to a flash drive. I do not think you need this particular product to do what you desire as to 8 mm if you have a cam recorder. As to 16 mm film you project it precisely on to the mirror. The image on the mirror is good but to record off the mirror I have had terrible results resulting poor digitization images; and it maybe me. So please rely on others not me.

I'm not certain a TV with a USB port will pass the image through unaided. I think you need to run it through some piece of software so that the image can be projected onto the screen.

I'm sorry Joey, I am unable to answer you intelligently. I had to google what mirror up was. I only purchased it for the timer so I can do stop time lapse photography.

I never tried screen mirroring with Plair but I did with other devices and the limit isn't the receiver but the WIFI connection. Don't have high hopes, until WIFI becomes at least 5 times faster and 10 times more stable screen mirroring will not work properly. If you want to play movies from local network use an app what runs on the device plugged into TV, i.e. Plex. Or upload the movie to Drive, DropBox or similar and stream from there. For mirroring apps what don't run on Plair or Chromecast use an HDMI cable.

No, but Plex (free) can stream and transcode recorded tv to those clients should you add a computer to handle it.

This device is used with a USB port to send video and audio to a tv wirelessly, if you can pull up the tv shows you missed on your laptop screen then this device will put the video on your tv, it will not send a tv signal to a laptop though,

I have been looking and looking. How can i use this product for remote viewing on a pc? Where are the direction for install

Just taking a stab here and guessing he meant an uploader to sites like YouTube. I don't have one but it can't be that difficult to upload from a pc if it doesn't have one.

Negative, it would work the other way - pushing audio from a laptop / USB to an aux port (which most TVs have). And it's only handling audio, no video.

It won't be a direct connection to your TV. This is best as a PC hardware accessory.

I'm not connecting to a desktop PC. I' m using the device to help me connect my tv to the components which reside in a media closet.

I have done this with this device. But if you try and pass video that has HDCP in it I was not successful even though they advertise it does work.

This will work as a recording device for any TV. However, you will need to use an external hard drive that connects using USB or a USB flash drive.

Only in the sense where you could use your Smart TV's browser to access it. Practically speaking, you need software to record. ISpy is the only decent open source, free software I've been able to find. It works great.

Think of this device as an HDMI cable. You can send the audio to the TV if the HDMI port on your computer outputs sound and video
