    You will need Apple TV to do that.

The following Mac models have processors that support AirPlay Mirroring:

    • iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)
    • Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)

    Hope this helps

    serviio seems to work. Loaded it on to my Mini and linking the Serviio Console and the Samsung TV automatically finds content on my Mini..

     

    Not Airplay but will do for the moment
