WI DI ?

[niloc]

Hi guy I have just bought a LG smart TV and it tells me I can view my laptop on the TV via WIDI my laptop, I first searched my programs and couldn't find anything, I then googled and tried to download Intel WIDI, but It's telling me my computer does not support it any suggestions please ?

Hi:

Here is the link to the intel hardware requirements that support WiDi.

Your PC must meet all 3 of the requirements (processor, graphics and wifi adapter).

You're very welcome.

Based on the product specs for your notebook, it does not meet any of the 3 wireless display requirements, which is why you can't project your notebook's display wirelessly.

The AMD processor your notebook has is not wireless display capable.

The AMD graphics your notebook has is not wireless display capable.

The wifi adapter your notebook has is not wireless display capable.

I managed to upload it on another laptop I have after upgrading graphics and drivers, but when i clicked on the desktop icon and agreed the terms I was surprised to see it then displayed all my private and personal photos, does this mean they have been made public on some sort of file sharing media or something like cloud? which incidentally I do not have, cheers

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to help you with that question.

I suggest you start a new post.

I have widi on one of my PC's and all it does it connect to my TV.

I never got any icon, or had to accept any agreements and no files, documents or photos were displayed.

Just whatever was on my computer screen at the time is displayed on the TV.

OK  many thanks  maybe I have   downloaded   the wrong Intel   program

[niloc]

yes  I  inadvertently   downloaded  Intel media share

ok  I now have   another laptop  HP notebook 15-AC042NA  product number N2K51EA#ABU   which I am told meets the criterior    needed   for WI DI     or is it miracast   not sure,  now when I  look in   devises   my LG  55uj630v   is  there  but when I try to  get  further  nothing  seems to be working    I have added a couple of pics  to show   whats happening
