Hello everybody,

I'm just wondering if it's possible to share my MBP screen over my network to my tv with some sort of software. I don't mean playing my videos/music/photos in my tv, I just want my tv to show what's on my screen.

I know i can connect it with wire but that's not what I'm asking. Is there a software of some sort that can do that? Is it even possible?

I have '11 MBP and Samsung LED Tv

thanks

The only way I can think of is to actually hook up a second Mac to your TV. Maybe Airplay will bring such functionality in the future, but either way you'll need some sort of hardware hooked up to your TV.

Yeah I thought so. I really wished it was possible tho.
