Watched the first episode of The Acolyte on Disney+, and there so many ads that I swear the ad-to-star-wars radio was 1 to 1.

…so I set sail. I’m so sick this. But now I’ve got three video files on the comp (Windows 10), but I’m struggling to get them into the TV… We have a Roku, but apparently my comp doesn’t support ‘Miracast’, and that seems to be a huge road block going by guides online.

Hoping to not spend an arm and a leg, but probably need some cable or something other than Roku. I’m probably the least techy person on Lemmy, so please idiot-proof any instructions.

Thanks all!

    I run plex through a Chromecast into TV HDMI.

    Wondering how others do it now…? Is it PCs plugged into TVs?

    Or do modern TVs run Plex apps?

      Roku, android TV, samsung, webOS, and a bunch of other random smart tv platforms all have plex apps. For direct hdmi I assume most people run a media center like kodi (xbmc).
