Miracast is a wireless technology that allows you to stream the contents of your screen to a
Miracast receiver that is connected to an HDTV. Miracast is like a wireless version of HDMI,
so it is easy to enjoy movies or share pictures and browsing by showing them on a big
screen. The Miracast implementation in Tegra Note 7 is ideal for video content up to 720p resolution. You need
to set up your Miracast receiver before you try to access it from your tablet.
Playing games over Miracast is not recommended since latency (delays) between action on the tablet and the
image on the screen can be quite long.
Resolution
This function defaults to high setting (720p). Because Miracast uses the same Wi-Fi frequency as your tablet
uses to access the Internet over Wi-Fi, there are performance limitations you may encounter. The Miracast
link will use up some bandwidth that limits the throughput from your Internet access point to the tablet. Other
devices like Bluetooth, baby monitors, and cordless phones also use the same 2.4 GHz frequency, causing your
Miracast link to degrade. Content stored on your tablet will typically play nicely at 720p resolution (the TN7
screen resolution) over Miracast. Streaming video from the Internet may need to be reduced to SD to
maintain smooth playback. If video playback over Miracast is stuttering, try reducing resolution to medium or
low.
Displays
I
f there are Miracast receivers within range, they will be listed automatically. Tap on the display you want to
connect to initiate communication. Some Miracast receivers require you to press a button to connect or you
may be prompted with a PIN that you need to enter to allow the devices to communicate.
Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a connectivity tool that provides a secure connection between devices over a
short distance (distance must be less than eight meters or 26 feet).
The most common Bluetooth devices used are game controllers, keyboards, headsets (with or without
microphone) for listening to music, videos, or chatting, speakers, etc.
Before you can use a Bluetooth device, you need to Pair the device to your Tegra NOTE 7.
