I have a Samsung smart TV (S6) with built-in WiFi adapter. Is it possible to use it as a wireless monitor?

Currently, I can use "play to" option on Windows Explorer and some other third party software to play music, video and images on the TV wirelessly. I want to use the TV as a regular monitor.

Here are some possible options:

  • Some Samsung TV's support WIDI (Intel Wireless Display) that may work.
  • Miracast is another wireless display standard and some Samsung TV's also support this. It is supported in Windows 8.1
  • You could also set up your PC as a DLNA server which the TV would be able to pick up though that is only for media. There are plenty of PC options for this but the built-in media player does it natively.

It depends upon your TV. For example, my Samsung support Screen Mirroring which allows this sort of remote display from a computer or mobile device with some additional software. Or, have a look at this link for ways to do it, with some additional hardware, with any TV.
