How do I play videos from my smartphone to my laptop?
Hi. Just registered and am new to this site. I am having a hard time finding information on google so I thought I would come here and ask, perhaps maybe someone can give me a clue as what to search for.
I have a smartphone (Motorola Droid RAZR HD, Verizon is the carrier) which has an HDMI output. I have a company laptop (DELL Latitude E5430) which has a HDMI port. I would like to play videos from my smartphone on my laptop, through the HDMI port. I have a few videos of my family that I sometimes like to display to coworkers, but the phone screen is so small it's hard to see (especially to a small audience.) Is there anyway to accomplish this?
I cannot simply copy the .mp4 video file from my phone to my laptop. I have done that in the past and was given a stern lecture about using company resources for personal use blah blah. And would prefer to avoid that in the future. I thought there might be an easy way to "Play" a video on my phone and have it display on my laptop screen. Thanks.
