Streaming services from my iPad


 

I am trying to stream from my iPad to my TV. There is a show on Peacock I want to see.I have connected and HDMI cable to my TV and I have the dongle that plugs into my iPad and the HDMI cable and a power cord plug into the dongle.

However when I start the show on the iPad the sound goes to the TV but the picture does not.On the iPad it indicates I am connected by AirPlay but I am not sure what that means.

I am not a premium subscriber to Peacock - would that make a difference?

Is the show not showing up on the TV a feature of Peacock or is there some setting in the iPad that is not turned on (or is turned off) that is preventing the show from peacock showing up on the TV?

TIA

Harry

They lock the video on streaming apps so you can not do that.

If I got an Apple TV or a Roku would I be able to watch on the TV? I think that’s what they do, right?

Maybe. Sometimes they restrict what you can send to an external monitor.

If you had an AppleTV or one of a variety of “Smart” TVs you could install the Peacock App and not have to futz with a computer at all.

John,
Do I understand you pay for Peacock and can stream from your iPad or iPhone on to your TV? Do you connect via an HDMI cable?

Harry, just saw this, it’s about 2;45 am so I hope it’s OK to send. No, I don’t use Peacock but I stream about anything from the iPhone or iPad to the large screen. Anyone can once their phone enters the one time code that pops on the screen. One daughter had rented the family an Airbnb & she wanted to show us where we were staying. She had the photos on her iPhone. I had her swipe down & hit screen mirroring & the photos were on the big screen. My other daughter had a video she wanted to show the family, same routine. “The Chosen” is a series that isn’t on any network, it’s only viewable on their App, which I mirror to the TV. Anything on the phone I’ve been able to mirror to the TV.

The problem might be the HDMI connection. There are restrictions built into HDMI to stop video piracy. I stream video to the teevee box all the time from iPhone/iPad, but I do it wirelessly via Airplay to my Roku box.

This occurs in paid streaming services. I streamed before I bought my Apple TV. But found it tied up my iPhone too much.?

Lee, thanks. I don’t have a bluetooth TV or Roku or Apple TV. As far as I know the only way for me to connect my iPad to the TV is with an HDMI cable. My TV does have wifi as does my TiVo. Can I stream wirelessly through wifi? If so, how?

For whatever it’s worth, I just used AirPlay to stream Peacock from my iPhone to my TV via Roku, and it worked perfectly. I do not have a paid Peacock account. The streaming is done wirelessly over WiFi,

As for your teevee, I can’t help you there because I don’t know what software your TV has installed.

I do know AirPlay also works on an Amazon Fire Stick, if you install AirScreen on the Fire Stick.

Lots of smart TVs come with Roku or Amazon software installed. You might want to check your TV manual or do some spelunking.

I don’t have an Apple TV. I think it’s way over-priced in comparison to the competition, which have pretty much the same capabilities. I have a Roku and a Fire Stick.

I forgot to answer the other question…

For just streaming and portability, I’d get something like an Amazon Fire Stick or a Roku Stick. They’re each not much bigger than a couple of sticks of gum. When traveling, you can control them with an iPhone, so the remote needn’t be packed.

I have connected the Fire Stick to motel and AirB&B networks, and it was?. I don’t have a Roku Stick—I have an Ultra—so I don’t travel with it, but the Roku interface.

The interface on the Roku doesn’t bother me at all. It’s pretty rudimentary, but it gets the job done. I usually navigate to different services with voice control, and I’ve programmed a couple of buttons on the remote to immediately take me to some usual places.
