    Hello,

    There are several ways:

    - If the PC has an HDMI output and the TV has an HDMI input, then use an HDMI cable between the two.

    - If the TV is connected to the local network of the box, via Wifi or Ethernet, and it has a screen duplication function, once this function is activated, on the PC use Windows Project feature, with the Windows key + P and choose "Duplicate" or "Extend" to display the PC screen. In Windows + P, go through "Connect to a wireless display."

    - The TV can also have a Wifi-Direct function; this does not go through the local network but establishes a direct connection between the PC and the TV. This is also used to duplicate the screen of a mobile phone; you also need to activate the screen duplication function on the TV and Project on the PC.

    For these last two features, you often need several attempts. It works more easily when the PC has memorized the TV device. You can go through Windows Settings/Devices and, on Add Bluetooth or other devices, scan for displays, and everything else.

      Absolutely, I did the test subject on a Samsung but I suppose it doesn’t change much on a recent TV from another brand either.

      Wireless enabled on both sides, Bluetooth enabled on the PC but not sure if that’s useful.

      On the TV, in the settings, device list, allow the one that has the name of the computer.

      On the computer, indeed Settings-System-Display-Connect to a wireless display.

      If you haven’t chosen another name, connect to what the TV will have selected by default for its descriptor (in my case 55" Neo QLED).

    Hello,

    No exact reference on the computer, on the operating system and on the TV either!

    Description of the problem

    When a user posts a message about their problem, they usually know the context. However, forum users can only help if they know which software is involved, which operating system, and possibly the hardware concerned.

    It is therefore essential to describe the issue as completely as possible by specifying the software environment and possibly the hardware.

    Hello,
    I’ll take a look at that and I’ll keep you updated

    PS
    I did check "receive the response by email," but I didn’t, so it’s taking longer

      Hello,

      It is possible via an HDMI cable or via a USB-C to HDMI cable.

      Once the connection is established, press the Windows key + P to choose the display mode: "Duplicate" or "Extend" (use the TV as a second screen).

      It is also possible to do it via wifi without any cable. Both devices must be connected to the same wifi network. Press the Windows key + K to select the TV from the list of detected devices.

      It does not seem to me that I spoke about the network folder ;-)

      but about the Windows + P keys and the Windows + devices settings

    It isn't a file, it's the "network" icon.

    If I press Windows+P I have:

    1. PC screen only
    2. Duplicate
    3. Extend
    4. Second screen only

      Hello,

      I did not reproduce the experiment because I found it to be a half-measure (the resolution on the big TV screen is far from great) to the point that I don’t remember the exact procedure on the TV (it isn’t a LG), but what’s certain is that I didn’t do anything on the computer except enable Bluetooth, which is not normally on.

      Is the TV configured with Wifi on the same network as the computer?

      It was then enough, from the TV menu, to select the device corresponding to my computer, which was then recognized there.

      hello, and you also need to choose the correct HDMI on the TV with its remote.

    I’m stopping....
    When I press "Windows Key + K", I do get the TV name, but it can’t find it.
