Wireless Display not working - Xiaomi Redmi 6 Pro Questions & Answers

I am using Redmi Note 6 Pro to cast screen to Vu 43" Ultra HD 4K tv. But the wireless display function isn't working. I've observed this problem with my previous devices that are Redmi 4, Redmi Note 5 pro. The only app I've successfully used to cast media is " All Screen (Chromecast, DLNA, Roku, Fire TV) " by Aryabhata Labs which can be downloaded from Play Store.
This app can only cast media to TV not the whole screen itself. I've read at many places about this problem, but there's no solution available for this. I've successfully casted screen of Vivo phone to the same tv. The only problem is with Redmi Series phones. I don't think the problem is at VU TV's end.
Somebody please provide a solution.

Same with me.
as per my knowledge, its the issue with Android version. I could cast seamlessly with MIUI 8&9 versions and Android Marshmallow & Nougat.
My Mi Max which is running MIUI 7 with Marshmallow is connecting Vu TV perfectly.

Does anybody have the solution ?

Hi,
Could u plz explain if u r facing the same problem as me. I have chromecast and am able to cast to my tv but i cannot get fullscreen like when i use my samsung
phone to cast. If u have chromecast have u tried using google home app? While this enables full screen casting in some cases there are many issues in most cases.

[Q] Screen Mirroring?

guys just wondering, what's the best Dongle for screen mirroring for LG G3?
I had the Samsung All Share Cast before on my note 3, but it wont work with LG G3.
Basically I just wanna be able to play videos from my LG G3 on the TV and Youtube.
Would Chromecast work? or Roku is better?
I have chromecast and miracast works like a charm from day 1 when I got my phone. It is official supported for G3. Also other cool apps like netflix, youtube, chrome, play music all access, etc. work with it.
Chromecast works with any android 5.0 for 4.4 and before you can try an app called Mirror-enabler (search for it here in xda) I have 2 unofficial supported devices working with it (galaxy s3 mini and xiaomi mi2s).

Thanks for your input.
Im deciding between Chromecast or AmazonFire Sticky or the EzCast by Measy
I'd recommend Chromecast, you can not only 'cast' from apps like youtube, netflix, etc, but you can also Cast your whole screen (Actual screen mirroring) for games and whatever else. Not sure if amazon, etc do that.

oh cool...
is there a lag or delay in the casting?
I know this is old but miracast now works for the Roku 3, which blows the chromecast out of the water.
Hey guys.
Did not want to create a new thread, so I'm resurrecting this one.
I'm a g3 user with an smart TV. I do have a generic slim port adapte which works fine.
What I'm wondering is, I'm still not sure which is the best way to play videos on. TV. I couldn't notice the difference between them.
Slimport
Miracast direct wifi
Phone connected to TV over USB and the smart TV plays the video.
What are the pros and cons of these 3 methods do you think?
Thanks in advance!

Smart view.

Hi,
Is anybody running smart view on a tab s 8.4? I used my samsung tv in combination with a galaxy 7.0 n plus for a long time. But for my new s 8.4 I am not able to find any working smart view version.
Anybody the same problem or knows anybody a solution?
Thanks for help

I cannot believe that nobody wants to use a tab s in combination with a Samsung tv!
I have an 10.5" and a Samsung smart TV, where do i get smart view from.
John.
I seemed to have it in the past, but can also no longer find it. I have both a S 8 and S10, and neither view it as a working title. I searched high and low to find out why, and it seems that it no longer can connect to newer Samsung TV sets. The iOS app works great, so its really annoying that my brand new samsung tablets cannot connect to my brand new samsung TV's, despite the fact that my much older iPhone 6 and iPad Air2 can connect without issue.
I did find a lot of people saying SmartView was also killed off for WatchOn. But, opening watchon on a brand new tablet gets an error about not being able to connect to the server. After doing some more digging, it appears Samsung killed this app/service at the end of 2014. So, if anyone has any ideas as to what I can use as a replacement, then please let me know, as this is the last missing piece for my Smart Home controller
I cannot find an Samsung app, I thought it was called allshare, I did download an app called "play to samsung" and it does work with my tv to an extent.
EDIT: Try This.

Allshare allows you to send data from your mobile to your TV (videos, pictures, music). Smart view does the opposite and is sending your TV screen to your mobile.

There are 2 versions:
Smart View 2.0
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.samsung.companion
SmartView 1.0
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sec.smartview.tz
Just give them a try
None of these versions is working on the tab s. That's a shame, cause the only reason to have a Samsung tab was smart view and my TV at home. If I had known that Samsung apps are not working on a Samsung tab, I had choosen definitly a tab from another manufacturer.
I tried also the customized versions you can find using google or here in the forum.
Did you read the link i posted earlier showing you have to activate the feature in the setting menu.
John.
Yes, I saw your link, but I think, you didn't read my postings: allshare allows you to browse content on your phone using your TV.
Smart view allows the other way and is able to send the TV signal to your mobile device.
You can follow the TV program that way in another room than your TV is localized. That is the feature I am searching for. You cannot do that using allshare.

Remote Control works using Smart View 1.0 with T800 but nothing shows up in dual view. It works fully with T520. I do not have the 8.4. (I had to use my smartphone to download a copy of SmartView 1.0, send it to dropbox then download/install in tablet).
Same here, remote control works with several versions, but no dual view...

Galaxy Tab S mirroring problems

I have a Galaxy Tab S (Android 5.021) and am mirroring to a 58" HDTV using Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter.
The picture looks fine on the Tab S but is compressed 3 inches on each side of the TV (vertical black bars).
Additionally the sound lags the picture by about a half second or more and the picture occasionally judders, both of which can be seen on the tablet screen. I've experienced 2 lockups while trying to get things working. Will these problems be corrected with Android 5.1 and when will it be available for the Tab S?
Screen mirroring sucks for trying to stream video, I've never had any success with it on any Samsung device. Personally I'd just get a cable.
No problems with chromecast mirroring, but I wouldn't mirror anyway because you don't need to with a chromecast.

The Tab S mirrors flawlessly with my Windows 8 .1 laptop.
So what am I missing then? Because I tried with a Galaxy S3, S5 with Chromecast and a Tab S and none of them streamed video without screen lag.

Can i ask why you mirror rather than stream direct?
How do you stream direct? You mean with WIFI Direct?

Not talking screen lag, which microseconds, I am referring to sound lagging the picture - i.e. severe lip-sync.

What I mean is, for what reason would you ever have to use screen mirroring when everything can be streamed directly?
Anything local, anything on a media server and anything from the Internet can all be streamed directly.
Well, I was emulating SNES games via my GS3 and was going to play the old Mario games on a TV bigger screen - But couldn't because of the lag.

I see, you'd probably be better with an mhl adapter.
Yeah tht's what I was going to do, then I got a tablet. 10.5 inch screen is big enough to play some retro snes on.

Yesterday, I discovered that the tablet aspect ratio 16:10 vs 16:9 on the TV - which explains the black bars. Dumb mirroring devices do not adjust the tablet's aspect ratio to fill the TV screen as casting devices, such as Chromecast, do. However some android apps will resize their output so that it will fill the screen even with a mirroring device such as the MWDA.
For some unknown reason, my other problems have disappeared (for now).

How to mirror screen on Chromecast?

Greetings all,
When I have no issue casting to my Chromecast 1from within apps that support casting like Netflix, VLC or similar, problem comes when I want to mirror my screen for other usages.
For example I like to do some retrogaming mainly using RetroArch, unfortunately there is no casting support in the app.
I used to be able to cast my games on a bigger screen like my TV to make my gaming sessions even more enjoyable when I was on my older devices, however now it is impossible from my new Redmi note 8 Pro.
I would like a trick/tip which does not require using a google account (trough the Home app for example) because I am not using my phone with a google account for may reasons (no google account is logged on my phone, nor I use the PlayStore).
If it is possible to cast for example NetFlix I see no reason why I cannot simply mirror my screen.
Thanks.
Redmi note 8 Pro
MIUI 11.0.2.0 PGGEUXM
Coz Xioami choose to use Miracast for it's mirroring protocol instead of Chromecast.
Those two are different protocol.
Try updating "security" app manually from apkmirror, (not sure if this is the one that added the option for me, or having Android 10 11.0.4), after you do one of these options, or both, go to:
Settings>special features>video toolbox>manage video app>add your desired app to cast.
Now whenever you open the app you will see a small line in one of the edges, you can swipe it and you will see many options, one of them is cast
