Description

Application to mirror the screen of your Mac to any Samsung Smart TV. No wires and no additional hardware needed! You can also stream individual video files from your Mac to your TV. Also, we included the option to watch one window on your Mac, and another window on your TV! This works on any Samsung Smart TV from the 2012 models onward. Which model year do you have? You can see that by looking at the middle letter in your model type (on the back of your Samsung TV). E = 2012 F = 2013 H = 2014 J = 2015 K = 2016 M = 2017 N = 2018 R = 2019 Q = QLED (supported) For instance: UE55_E_S8000 = 2012. UE78_H_U8500L = 2014. In using the app, there will be a couple of seconds of latency (usually between 1 and 3). So this mirroring is not suitable for gaming. However, it is very suitable for watching movies, giving presentations, watching photos, and much more! The quality of your experience will be dependent on the quality of your local network. Some tips to enhance the experience: - Preferably, connect your TV by LAN cable to your router. - Use a Wifi ac router. If you don't have one, then an "n" router. - Try not to overload your wifi network by moving big files around while you are mirroring. How the app works: First, make sure that your Samsung TV is on the same local network and same subnet as your Mac. The TV should not be in screen mirroring mode, but just on "TV" Mode or any HDMI IN port. After launching the app, you will see the app icon appearing in the top bar of your Mac and the app will look for your TV on the network. It will show your TV when it has found it. Now, you have two options: Mirror your Mac Screen: Use this option to put the screen of your Mac on TV. In source, you can select which screen (or attached monitor) you want to display on TV. If you are running multiple applications on your Mac, you can also select which application window you want to see on TV. Enable Sound: check this to hear the sound of your Mac coming from the TV. You will need the additional (free) audio driver, which you can download here: http://bit.ly/MirrorAudio Play Video File: Use this option if you have a video file on your Mac and you want to play just the file on TV. Drop it in the box and it will play on TV. Settings (the icon in the bottom right of the app): click here to request support from our 24/7 support staff. They usually respond within 2 hours on any query that you might have. If your question is technical, please also include the diagnostics information. Limitations: Apple has HDCP DRM protection for playing iTunes movies. This means that screen mirroring is not possible when watching movies from iTunes. When you like the app, please don't forget to give it a positive rating! Thanks in advance from the AirBeamTV development team! Please give us feedback by mailing to [email protected]

  • Terrible color, awful lag

    Don't waste your money it can't even stream 360p, lines through the image and a 3-5 second lag.
  • Fantastic at what it's designed to do

    Good tool, works great. If you're having trouble connecting, it's either because your TV doesn't support it, or because you're making a mistake on your end. Their support is very good for figuring out what that mistake is. The fact that you can also relegate sharing to a single app is very nice. My only feedback: allow the user to set a specific delay between the laptop and the app to tailor the experience to their connection. Sometimes the app will try to keep the latency between my laptop and the TV TOO low, which my router won't be able to keep up with, which causes the screen to freeze while it buffers; then, a short while after the sharing hsas resumed, it will skip ahead to fix the delay, which isn't really necessary for me as I primarily use this app to watch TV shows and movies. The skipping just proves to be more disruptive than helpful. I don't have this issue very frequently though, so overall I would give this service a hearty recommend.
  • Best app I've found; BUT won't mirror Apple TV

    We're very happy with the Mirrior for Samsung TV. It was the only one that worked well of those we tried. However, it won't mirror our Apple TV from my Macbook Air and our Samsung Smart TV won't allow us to upload Apple TV either. Any chance that policy with be changed?
  • super support response

    I've been using this app for a few years. It does exactly what I bought it for: let's me stream content from my macbook pro onto my Samsung TV. Here's the thing--my TV is from 2015. So while it's a SMART TV, it's not super smart... it doesn't connect to the internet easily nor can I use the streaming channels like Hulu, Apple TV , Disney Plus etc. Recently, the app started acting wonky, there was a green line running through the center of the TV (but not on the laptop), and the picture was completely mottled. Color was separated, it was horrible. I was in the middle of a virtual work event. I contacted customer service through facebook messenger with little hope of resolution. They immediately replied and helped trouble shoot, and ultimately ended up sending me a trial of a newer version of the app. It worked! And they shared the license key at no charge. There is still a wee bit of lag from the laptop to the TV but hey, this is still an amazing work around to not using my TV! HUGE THANKS to their customer service--I love that I can not just add my told TV to the dump till it actually dies!! If you aren't sure, just do it! It's a cool tool to help you!

    Mirroring suddenly stopped working and the team contacted me after filing an error report. They were most helpful in getting the problem resolved in a timely manner. Not sure if it was a Samsung S/W issue or a Mac issue but we worked through it in a rapid response manner. Actually it was a simple matter of unplugging all devices and letting them reboot ( specifically unplugging the TV) It was really unique as I was able to mirror with my I Phone. Thanks again.
  • Love it!!
