Duplication of the screen with PC on TV on Ethernet

Hello!

I want to transmit image and sound from a Windows 10 PC with Miracast support to a TV with the following wired component connection: PC – RJ-45 Ethernet cable – Router -Ethernet cable RJ-45 – Media TV Box for Android (with Miracast app) – HDMI cable – TV. Is this possible?

Hello. No, this scheme will not work. Let me explain why.

Miracast connection is a direct, wireless connection between two devices (in this case PC and TV) with Miracast support. Roughly speaking, it is the connection of two devices over Wi-Fi (directly, without a router) to transmit live images. To duplicate the computer screen to the TV screen, for example.

Through Ethernet cable, through a router Miracast does not work. Well, it’s not quite clear why you need it.

If you have a computer with Miracast support, then it has a Wi-Fi module (or an external USB Wi-Fi adapter). Otherwise, it can’t support Miracast. That means you can try to directly connect your computer (Windows 10) to your Smart TV set-top box via Miracast.

Through a router, by cable (as well as by wi-fi) according to your scheme can work connection via DLNA technology. But with this technology you will not be able to duplicate the computer screen on the TV via TV Box on Android, or watch online videos. With DLNA you can start watching media content (videos, photos, music) that is stored on your computer’s hard disk.

It works like this: on your computer, you start a DLNA server. Since the computer and Smart TV set-top box are connected to the same router, they are in the same local network. On the set-top box you install some application (client) with the help of which you can connect to the DLNA server running on the computer (it will automatically detect it in the network) and watch content shared on the computer. Some popular ones are VLC Media player, Kodi, BubbleUPnP.
