Screen sharing over wifi

#1 Post by coppolino97 »

Hi all,
a few days ago, I installed at home a Samsung smart monitor (the model is Samsung M5).
I know that I can share my screen over wireless network from my laptop to this screen without cable.

This Samsung monitor and my laptop are connected to the same network (my home network).
I already tried screen sharing from another PC (Win10) and from my Android phone. All worked properly.

My laptop has got Debian 10 XFCE.
Can I screen share my notebook screen to this monitor?
It could be useful if I stay many hours in front of my computer.

I tried using Chromium Browser and I tried to install "mkchromecast" without success.

What can I do?

Thanks

As far as I can tell Debian 10 only has
python3-pychromecast

While Debian 11 does have
mkchromecast

maybe it's time to upgrade?
