• OT Airplay TV

    From oldman@sea.com@21:1/5 to All on Thu Oct 29 14:17:21 2020
    I know this is OT, I am desperate to know -

    i want to buy a 32' TV, but wud like to use it for casting from my
    Iphone8x and Android tablet - hence Airplay 2 seems a good way to go.

    That said, anyone recommend a 2020 32 inch TV with that capability?

    Thanks

    Then I suppose you have to find which one of those
    does Chromecast too. Maybe it would be easier to
    just add a Chromecast dongle to the back ? The Visio
    P-series does Chromecast, but it's pretty expensive.

    And when casting, some of the TV sets have as many
    problems as PCs do.

    I think I'd do a price search through the above list,
    select something with a nice picture, then if necessary,
    add a ChromeCast dongle to the back.

    Thanks Paul. You are always there. I don't know why I couldn't
    generate a workable URL list, but I couldn't. That said - thanks.
    I'll look at each.

    Should my Firestick have cast the Android? I was not successful in
    the past. My Iphone8x though has cast fine to my new 55" LG via
    Airplay/wifi.
