Hello my Friends and welcome on my first tutorial : How to set up WiDi on Windows 8.1 ?
Setting it up just became easier then ever. This is , as far as I know, only on Windows 8.1 ! On older Windows versions, you need a special WiDi application to start streaming!
Ok lets start :
First of all , call up the Charm bar , either by swiping from the right (touchscreen) or by navigating your mouse to the top right corner of your screen, and then moving it downwards.
Ok great so far , now go to Devices, the forth icon in the Charmbar, and click on it!
Ok now you should see 4 options, with the third one being Project. Select it !
Depending on your receiving hardware, the following steps change. You need to start pairing on your receiver, on my Toshiba TV there is an option for WiDi and i simply need to select it. It pops up in Windows and i click on it. The first time you need to set up a code, to verify your the one who connects , like with bluetooth. Simply type in the code and your done! Chose with Win+P shortcut if you want to duplicate or expand etc. your screen !
Tada happy wireless displaying!
P.s. If pictures are needed , feel free to ask and i'll add them!
Good Luck!!
