Peytskins47 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I will be watching most of the bowl games this year on espn3.com/online. I have an HDTV in another room. Is there some sort of wireless device that can transmit what is on the computer to the TV? If anyone could lead me in the right direction I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Burgold Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Most HDTVs have a usb port... I think it's as simple as linking them and telling the tv to show what's playing on the PC or laptop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixcuincle Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 What he said If you do have a movable computer like a laptop you can just move it next to the TV and hook it up. All it takes is some USB cables or a VGA cable or HDMI (depending on which ports your PC may have) However keep in mind that depending on your TV size the quality may not be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerPacker Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 you're not gonna find a good wireless video transmitter for cheap. Best bet is to bring your laptop over and hook it into the TV through whatever ports they may share. HDMI is ideal, DVI/VGA are still great, Composite/S-video will be 480i Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polywog999 Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 Wireless USB Box Streams Video from Laptop to TV http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/08/wireless-usb-box-streams-video-from-laptop-to-tv/ Link, from Imation, is a dead-simple way to get movies off your computer and onto your TV. It consists of two parts: a USB-dongle for the computer and a receiver that hooks into your TV. The pair talk to each other wirelessly and stream whatever is on the computer’s screen over to the television. The connection is via Wireless USB, or WUSB, and will stream video up to 720p resolution and still images up to 1080p. It also sends stereo sound, and the whole lot is piped into the TV via an included HDMI cable. Unfortunately, the one thing Imation doesn’t want to share is the price. If this thing is under $100, it might be in with a chance. With the rumors hotly tipping a new, $99 Apple TV at next week’s Apple Event on September 1st, anything that costs more than that may as well just go home now. Don't know if this is even out yet. Looks pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
