ScreenBeam  receiver  displays  a  screen  that  seems  to  be  larger  than  my  TV  can 

handle. How can I fix this? 

Right-click the 

ScreenBeam

 icon in Windows

 Notification Area at the bottom right of the 

desktop. A menu will appear. From the menu, select 

Preferences

, then adjust the screen 

size. 

Why is my laptop/PC

s audio muted once I connect to ScreenBeam receiver? 

It is muted because the audio is now being broadcast through the TV. 

Why am I experiencing stuttering video and out-of-sync audio? 

If this occurs, make sure your system meets the recommended requirements for optimal 
video playback experience. You can also place the ScreenBeam Receiver in an open space 
and try again. If running your laptop on battery, make sure its power settings are configured 
for 

Maximum Performance

 or plug-in your laptop

s power cable. 

My video quality is poor, or I

m seeing a mosaic display on my HDTV. What should I 

do? 

First,  make  sure  the  laptop/PC  meets  the  recommended  system  requirements.  If  you

re 

seeing  constant  mosaic  picture/video  display,  disconnect  and  then  reconnect  the 
ScreenBeam components. 

When  viewing  video,  sometimes  I  see  a  horizontal  line  appears  across  the  screen. 

What should I do? 

This may occur when you use Windows Media Player to play video. You may try another 
video/media player application to resolve this issue. 

How can I update my ScreenBeam Wireless Display software? 

Open the ScreenBeam Wireless Display application. Right-click the ScreenBeam Wireless 
Display  icon  in  the  Notification  Area  and  select 

Check  for  updates

.  Make  sure  the 

laptop/PC is connected to the Internet. 

Why  am  I  unable  to  play  a  DVD  or  Blu-ray  disc  when  connected  to  a  ScreenBeam 

receiver? 

Currently,  ScreenBeam  USB  Transmitter  and  Wireless  Display  software  do  not  support 
streaming of protected content such as DVD/Blu-ray movies, TV shows, etc. 

What should I do if the ScreenBeam Wireless Display software cannot connect or pair 

with a Receiver? 

Reboot  the  laptop  and  power  cycle  the  Receiver.  Also,  try  selecting  a  different  wireless 
channel before connecting. To do this, from the 

Add a Receiver

 screen, click the wireless 

channel drop-down menu, then select a different wireless channel.
