Hello! Please tell me if I can set up a TV LG 47lb650v to watch movies, football matches, programs, etc online through a laptop samsung r540 win7. Before this used the old-fashioned way through the HDMI wire. Everything is fine, but my wife is constantly for the wire is always crammed and tears it. In the last time a friend advised that if the TV you have a tricked out and smart and smart and 3d and wi-fi, then most likely viewing can be organized without wires. Turned to the Internet – a bunch of smart tips. nothing understood, more or less you understood was, downloaded LG smart ball LG for laptop, yes, now the TV sees my photos and some more video, but how to watch online is unclear. If you can, please explain more clearly, as for a dummy. Where to poke and “where to tick”.

Hello. You currently have a DLNA server configured. Therefore, you can see files on your LG TV that are on your laptop. It is impossible to watch online video via DLNA, just like you can’t duplicate your laptop screen on your TV. You can only watch videos, photos, listen to music.
In your case, the best solution is an HDMI cable. Maybe somehow lay it so that no one will be able to get a hold of it.
If you duplicate the laptop screen over the air, you need Intel WiDi support. On your laptop it is most likely not present, as the laptop is not the newest. And the technology itself is unlikely to work stably for watching online video on the TV from the laptop.
A wire is the best solution.
