Miracast Workaround Prowise Touchscreens

Due to the fact that our Prowise Touchscreens seem to have an issue with Miracast we would like to offer a workaround.

Workaround with Chrome

  1. Be sure that on the PWT ChromeCast casting is enabled. Click on the menu to get it collapsed and click on Screencasting and check if the slider is enabled
  2. Start a Chrome-browser on the device you want to cast from
  3. Click on the 3 vertical dots on the left upper side of the browser-windows 
  4. Click on Casting
  5. First select the source. You can choose to only cast one tab of the browser or you can select to cast an entire screen.
  6. After that you can select the screen to cast too, in our case "PWTMiraCast"

From 6 on the screen is casted to the Prowise Touchscreen.

Workaround with Edge

  1. Be sure that on the Prowise Touchscreen ChromeCast casting is enabled. Click on the menu to get it collapsed and click on Screencasting and check if the slider is enabled.
  2. Start an Edge-browser on the device you want to cast from.
  3. Click on the 3 vertical dots on the left upper side of the browser-windows 
  4. Click on More Tools → Cast media to Device
  5. First select the source. You can choose to only cast one tab of the browser or you can select to cast an entire screen.
  6. After that you can select the screen to cast too, in our case "PWTMiraCast"
