Casting Phone Image to Win 11 PC

[neil154]

I was able to cast the screen from Android to Win 11 PC but when I tried watching movie it did not work. it seemed to work for other screen shots but not a movie, the screen just went black. I was using a USB between the devices and installed AirDroid Casting on both phone and PC.

Any advise would be helpful.

Try using the Teamviewer instead. This will involve online connectivity for both your phone and your computer so the USB cable isn't required, and you'll need install Teamviewer on both your phone (use Teamviewer Host app) and your computer (any Teamviewer variant, in this instance your phone is the server and you computer is the client).

Could be the video casting is blocked by DRM(Digital Restrictions Management)? All depending on whatever it is app and/or service you're using. For some movie casting and streaming you need to have a link and devices that comply with HDCP.

why not use samsung dex? you can just mirror the phone to the pc. you should be able to do it wirelessly.
