About Wi-Fi Miracast
You can view your photos or play your music and
videos from a mobile device on your TV with Wi-Fi
Miracast™. The mobile device and the TV should be
within range, which usually means being in the same
room.
Check if your mobile device is ready for Miracast.
Your TV is a
Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast™
device.
With Miracast™, you can watch and share the screen
of your smartphone, tablet or computer on your TV
screen wirelessly. You can stream videos (audio and
video), share photos or anything else that's on screen
of the device. No need to connect the device to your
home network. Both the TV and the device must be
Wi-Fi CERTIFIED Miracast™ devices and have
Miracast switched on.

and cannot display copy-protected premium content
