Don't tell me i need something proprietary


A. Not a bug.

B. Why ask questions you don't want answers too?


Unless your LG TV accepts an Apple Airplay stream, you can't stream to it. Not a bug. A limitation of your LG TV.


LG can license the Airplay technology if they choose and provide that to you. They have only aligned with the Android way of streaming audio and video.

It would seem like a bug if both my Windows phones and Android phones support the Miracast standard but Apple does not.


Kind of reminds me of the issues I had trying to connect my Macintosh to a network. I ended up needing an AppleTalk card.


Is there a feedback forum to ask for support for a standard? I wouldn't want to force LG to use a proprietary Apple technology.

Ha, no worries for me. I'm used to the Apple fanbois. Have been dealing with them since the late '90s. (I actually still have my Apple IIe and my Mac SE/30 but never use them.) I also used to be on Usenet and IRC, so have a very thick skin.


I'll try the Imediashare application.


Odd that this forum requires two-factor authentication every time. it is a forum, after all.
