I know this is very unlikely, but maybe there is a possibility?
I've got a htpc in my living room which I often use only to choose music. My problem is, that I have to put on my TV to choose music, movies etc.
I thought about buying a small touch screen for it - but I don't want a computer monitor in my living room - next to my TV... Who would?
So my question is: Might there be a possibility to use a mobile phone to handle the Media Center software?
Perfect would be a connection via USB - the screen resolution doesn't matter, cause the mediacenter (freeware Team-Mediaportal) has very big "keys". And - of course, without any "tipping this and that to a vnc client" - cause then it would be easier to put on TV
Any ideas?
(sry for my bad english...)
you could use therminal services or vnc to get your pocketpc to view and control your pc

Please dont reply to this thread as it would affect my odc as i am use to it.
Convert what from where. I don't understand your question.:what:
when you drag and drop a video from your notebook to your tablet when it is connected by a usb cable, windows will ask you if you want to convert the file as it might not play on your device, and it ask this every time.

Just select no and put a check in the box so it doesn't ask again. Windows does not know the capabilities of the attached device and simply assumes it may not play and wants to convert to wmv format.
Heck no I don't have that much time to waste. Mine asks every time

I like to play movies from my phone/tablet using a small portable projector. It's possible as both devices support Slimport and a tiny microsub/HDMI adapter is sufficient for connection. I wanted to try if my new Mi6 can do the same trick, but a cheap Chinese adapter usb-c/HDMI doesn't work. I wonder if the official Xiaomi connector (photo and link below) can help somehow.

its look like the usb C in the phone does not support HDMI.
My p6p will not pick up my TVs built in wireless display or even my Roku, do pixel phones only detect chrome casts? My Samsung is able to pick it all up weird.
All the playstore apps I have tried don't work either
No luck here either. I have a 2020 LG CX TV. I assume it might work with any brand that uses Android TV (or an addon Android TV, similar to Chromecast). I've successfully used apps such as AirDroid to mirror to my computer, which is also hooked up to my TV. They have several related apps, several of which might do what you need. https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=SAND+STUDIO&hl=en
In the past, I've also successfully used TeamViewer - again to mirror on the computer. You have to do it locally over Wi-Fi, though, remote via mobile data didn't work for me on any phone.

Some non-Android TVs do accept Google-style casting or allow the YouTube app to act as a middle man for content-specific casting. I know my LG webOS one allows the latter. BubbleUPnP and LocalCast are similar in that regard.
But mirroring? That's harder with a Pixel.
I remember in the past there were Magisk modules to enable the checkbox for Miracast, but it doesn't actually work or can even cause bootloops.
