Project My Screen feature

Can you actually project your phone to a tv screen? This is a really cool feature in surprise 🎊 Daniel is not all over it #slacking
 
I can controll my phone for my win 8.1 laptop..but cannot control from win 7 desktop

Same here, I can control my phone on my touch screen laptop (Win8.1) and mouse from the PC, but on my Windows 7 work PC I can't control with the mouse at all.

#CyberSlacking. But honestly I'd say if you're projecting your desktop screen to a TV screen (be it duplicating or extending your screen to it) there's no reason why it shouldn't work. Also, believe it or not but I don't actually have a TV.

Not without a PC (Win 7/8.x) running the software and the PC connected to a TV. If you mean phone->USB->TV, it is not possible.

Edited to emphasize USB.

Not exactly. If the TV supports Miracast or you have a Miracast dongle, and your phone is one of the newer ones that supports the wireless Project My Screen feature, then you can project right from your phone to the TV.

Currently the 1520 states "this phone can't project your screen with a wireless connection. Connect with USB"

I believe a patch is required to get it to work. which is not out yet.

Quite possibly. It's probably one of the features that requires drivers from the Cyan firmware.
 
Does anyone know if it's possible to get touchpoints to show up in the Project My Screen App? Would love to be able to use this when presenting my current project for a bunch of business people next week.
 
In the settings for project my screen on the phone if you go into the advanced settings you can enable that
 
Since I have na nvidia card, I can use shadow play with desktop record on ;)
I would like to help you, but I dont know a good desktop recorder.

I actually use XSplit Broadcaster for recording, using their screen region feature :) Works perfectly.
 
Dont know how the rest of the forum missed your post about it coming in the cyan update. I'm excited!!!
 
i know i am a little late to the party on this one as i gave up trying to project my phone and since the last minor bug fix update i had not retried BUT this morning i thought i would try again and without any removal of drivers or additional steps it now works !! so list a Lumia 720 to the no problem it connects brilliantly to the list of working PMP devices
 
Miracast worked first time from my L630 to my Bravia. So yes, I'd say this is Cyan Update dependent (those of you running PDP don't have this yet).
 
I can't wait for this to be wireless capable on a high end phone so I can control my phone from my Surface Pro 3.
 
when I got my 930 I presed project to screen and my phone all of it was put on my tv perfectly that's thy I wont use beamer, I don't want to have to go somewhere and scan in a code then send it to tv via that webpage lol. but unfortunately after firmware ypdate my tv isn't reven recognized so I cant pair with it anymore?
