Screen cast dongles are pretty much a dime a dozen these days though. Maybe I’m lucky but in he past two years or so I haven’t been anywhere that still relies on hdmi for presenting on big screens. Except conferences.
- andrewprock 7y agoThe problem with dongles isn't the cost. It's the labor it takes to purchase, install, secure, and maintain.
- mstade 7y agoYou could do it surreptitiously – get a $20-30 dongle and just hook it up and hope no one fires you for it. :o)
- _ph_ 7y agoWhich screen cast dongles are cheap and support Air Play? I would really be interested to push for them locally.
- mstade 7y agoAmazon has a bunch[0] but couldn't really vouch for any of them, I mainly use Apple TV (not just for airplay.) I've also seen these things in pretty much any electronics store I've been the past couple of years, particularly ones in touristy areas – I guess plenty of people like to cast video to hotel room TVs maybe? A buddy of mine used a dongle for his big screen pre-streaming features era TV. He mainly used it to stream games from his phone or iPad to the TV, and Netflix. I think it was chromecast though, not airplay, but same difference really.
