iOS (720p) or OS X (1080p) AirPlay video mirroring is what you're looking for.
Mavericks even lets you use an AirPlay display (read: AppleTV) as a fully independent 1080p monitor, not just a mirror.
- cromwellian 13y agoMirroring from another device is not the same as streaming from a TV connected device. It requires active participation from the mirroring device.
- seiji 13y agoStreaming from a TV connected device with arbitrary content restrictions is silly. Freedom and whatnot.
- cromwellian 13y agoThe freedom to leave the house and to preserve your battery life is another issue. I often fling videos to my chrome cast for my kids remotely. AirPlay style mirroring is wasteful of bandwidth, battery, it double compresses streams, and adds latency. It's a fallback of last resort IMHO.
- ceph_ 13y agoThe chromecast already let's you directly stream the contents of a chrome tab. He's looking for something less clunky.
- agotterer 13y agoRelated to AppleTV: I've been using Beamer.app (http://beamer-app.com/ http://beamer-app.com/) to stream unsupported content to AppleTV. It's a premium product, but it was worth the $15 (or thereabouts).
