1. How to connect Xiaomi Mi A2 mobile to TV with Miracast


To connect your Xiaomi Mi A2 to your TV Smart TV without cables there are two technologies that can help you: Miracast or DNLA.
The requirements that must be met are to be able to carry it out.
  • TV and mobile must have WiFi connection and be connected to the same WiFi network.
  • That our TV or mobile are compatible with both technologies.
  • Have on our mobile the option of "Duplicate screen" or "Share screen". In Xiaomi it is called “Send screen”

Now we will explain the difference between the two types of technologies that we have cited above..

Difference between DNLA and Miracast
The DNLA (Digital Living Network Alliance) technology, allows you to connect two devices without the need for cable or other devices, being able to play files such as photos and videos that we are viewing on the screen of our mobile on TV, but it does not allow the screen content to be reproduced per se. On the other hand, Miracast technology allows a connection between two devices (in this case mobile and Smart TV) in a similar way as we would with an HDMI cable but without the need to use cables; with the difference that we can see on TV everything we are viewing on the phone screen.

If you meet the requirements you can connect your Xiaomi Mi A2 to your Smart TV by following these steps:
