Hello all, I currently use my TV as a monitor connected by an HDMI cable. I intend to wall mount the TV and would like to access it wirelessly and was wondering if any members have previously done this and would advise the use of any particular piece of kit. My PC is also used for gaming so would like something capable of high resolution if possible. Thanks in advance.

I have mine connected via a wireless dongle stuck in the HDMI slot as it is a Sony tv I had order a Sony one price about £70.
I got it via Amazon a couple of years ago.

You can get hdmi dongles for the TV dead cheap, the problem is sending the media over the wireless network from the PC without any noticeable latency.

Some graphic processors support it but not many.

There are boxes to transmit the hdmi but the cheap ones have quite a bit of latency.

Sometimes wires are best until technology catches up (you ever used a wireless mouse - I can't stand them).


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

Thanks for the input DD, latency is my major concern. I was hoping for some sort of radio frequency device rather than wifi via the home network to reduce the probability.
