Howdy fellow nerds, I am need need of recommendations. Here is the setup:
I have a windows PC on one side of my office and an HDTV on the opposite wall. I am looking for a way to stream content from my PC, and ideally to mirror my computer screen onto the TV. When clients come in, I will use this to show them videos from their file (saved in various formats) and to blow up important documents, exhibits, etc for them to see as we go through them.
Apple TV won't work because AirPlay won't work from a PC.
I doesn't look like Chromecast will work because from what I have read, you can only stream from your phone or tablet.
I have not done the research on the Amazon Fire Stick yet.
The distance is WAY too long to run a DisplayPort/HDMI cord from the PC to the TV, not to mention it would look hideous as I don't have any way to run the cables in the wall.
Any reccomendations or thoughts are appreciated. Thanks in advance guys and gals.
