Quick to critise, in 20 mins from OP's post, yet no sorry when you are wrong as pointed out by moderator, sigma.
I did search and couldn't find nothing about wireless adapter. Oh well, my bad.

Hi they are different items, earlier thread is for a Arc Bluetooth Mouse so not a duplicate, thanks :smiley:

Fair enough, this isn't in the heading of the other post but is in the description.
Probably a bit of a grey area.

is this Microsoft Version of chromecast?
Dave_c to brendanhickey
29 Oct 15#15
no its like having a direct hdmi cable plugged in, so complete mirror of anything you do on the device you are using (also can be used as an extended desktop) Things like sky go work and are not blocked etc.

I've just taken a punt on this. It's going back if the cashback doesn't come through though.

Mines finally tracked at 52p so will see if this increases in time

Mine is also pending. 60? Not worth it. 18? Sure why not :stuck_out_tongue:

haha exactly! how long do we have to return, compared to how long this tracks correctly?

Apologies for not replying sooner.
At the time of Sigma's posting I was driving to work so didn't want to get nicked for using my phone while in control of a motor vehicle. When I got to work I knuckled down and got on with what I am paid to do instead of sitting looking at the Internet all morning.
I'm finding a bit of time to have some lunch so this is the earliest opportunity I have had to reply without either getting arrested or fired. Sorry about that, I have realised my mistake and won't do it again.

Anyone know if this device supports HDMI audio? (in Wireless HDMI mode, not Miracast)
m.ad to beanoni
30 Oct 151#35
I played with one of these yesterday, adapter plugged in to TV via HDMI (obviously) and a laptop connected to it. Fired up the Force Awakens trailer from YouTube - sound played from the TV and ran smooth at 720p. Bit of stuttering at 1080p but could be due to other variables. Other than that I was very impressed :smiley:

29 Oct 15#32
Not bad with the cashback, won't most new Smart TVs already have Miracast already though?
telcab
30 Oct 151#33
Mine has arrived today. Hanging fire on using it until the cashback appears.
Dave_c
30 Oct 15#34
anyone have experience on cashback uplifts and the amount of time it usually takes?
mikerr
30 Oct 15#36
£59.99 on microsoft store, £18 if the cashback works.
Mine has turned up. Gonna open it and hope cashback doesn't screw me over!

Anyone know how to get this to run at 60hz at 1080p instead of 30hz? I find it so laggy when using android but fine with windows.

Really leggy with my surface 2 pro, it's going back.

1 Nov 15#44
Yeah seems rubbish compared to using airplay etc! Can we send back even after pulling the tape off?
littld

I meant laggy of course!
Yes I will be returning it regardless of tape. Not fit for purpose, nuff sed.

I am guessing this is carp compared to the Chromecast because the Chromecast effectively just receioves the link and login information from your device and connects diretly to YouTube/NetFlix etc rather than going Via your device. I have tried Choecasting pages in my browser and it is rubbish and laggy.
I am guessing the latter is the way this device works so reliant on the CPU/RAM etc of the the device.

Guessing from comments this would be no good for streaming games (gta v etc) due to lag?
Dave_c
2 Nov 15#54
to be honest from my windows tablet the lag was not too bad, no way you could play games on it though, but i did see a lot of artifacts which get worse the further away from the adapter you are
Tuscan915
2 Nov 15#55
I opened to see what it was like and my laptop's graphics card wasn't compatible. Reckon they'd give a refund on an opened box?
edit: Mine's tracking at 50p too
Dave_c to Tuscan915
2 Nov 15#57
Mine was opened just said it wasnt fit for purpose and useless too me so want a refund
Just as a matter of interest, what was the 'purpose' it's not fit for?
Got one of these in on a trial and worked perfectly for mirroring a surface pro, Lenovo tab, linx tab, dell pc (using Intel widi software) and two phones. Extended desktop, with local video and Netflix, as well as mirroring. The phones even worked really well when using the camera as a roaming feed to the TV - got to about 40ft away and no real issue either.
Only thing that lagged a little in our test was a Samsung galaxy.
Dave_c
3 Nov 15#60
Seems like everyone has different experiences, just wasn't as smooth as i was expecting compared to other types of streaming i use. I actually find splashtop streamer faster than this. Maybe it's the kit im using.
tapi
3 Nov 15#61
Could be, as I said found a galaxy a little choppy so it seems the new tech is at the mercy of all the different hardware/software combinations (by the way, have you updated the firmware on the adaptor? We had issues until we did that)
haritori
3 Nov 15#62
Works great for me, what you need to remember, it is a direct wifi connection to the device, its not like chromecast that uses your router as a middle man..
Dave_c
3 Nov 15#63
yeah firmware was all updated. Maybe im expecting it to be like airplay, but like you said that's via the router like chromecast. Still prefer the quality via hdmi cable even if it is a pain.

Thanks for the info Dave, will be handy if the cashback doesn't uplift.
I do want to keep mine though as it works well with my Note 4 (Screen sharing).

Anybody get the cash back?
RUGAAL
20 Nov 151#69
I returned mine for refund after I contacted MS and asked if they are partnered with TCB and they said they aren't and they can't garanteed and TCB FB administrator wasn't helpful either, said that I will get cashback in around 6 weeks when they will get paid by MS which MS said they ain't paying that company nothing.
Anyone who has chance to return it, I would highly recommend it
