    Dont know whether this is the right place to ask but I recently bought a wifi display sharer from Groupon and if working properly is supposed to mirror what you see on your smartphone on the tv. The instructions came in a sort of broken English and iv tried to follow them as much as I could, I have it connected to the tv, iv downloaded the sharing app on my phone, the phone is picking up the device but I just cant seem to get it onto the tv screen did anyone else here buy one or have previous experience with this device?

    Thanks in Advance!

    The Android system, the version is 4.2 and above with Miracast protocol that will display , under this version can push only.
    The Android mobilephone ,turn on wifi first , then find the words like "WLAN Display","Screen Mirroring","AllShare Cast" "Miracast",or"Screen Cast" on settings ,
    (different mobilephone with different describe for Miracast protocol , but it is same meaning.) ,connect it , is OK. Very easy,
    Don't need install the app.

    First connect the PTV Device with TV by HDMI Cable and USB Power Cable , choose the HDMI Channel.
