skytrak compatibility ?

[bedazzled]

I have read a lot of great feedback from all of you on this forum about skytrak which has helped me decide to purchase. I was wondering if skytrak can be used with a smart tv like 50 inch Samsung and if so how will it connect? it only mentions iOS devices or windows. thank you.

You have to connect the ios device or computer to the tv monitor.

iPad + Apple TV and AirPlay.

you can use this route but coming from a big screen tv to hitting into a screen that is measured in feet and in front of you is sooo much better. However, if cash flow is the issue I understand...I had to wait about 3 months. No matter what...all fun.

You could also do a Lightning-to-HDMI cable, but I like the apple tv solution so that you're not tethered.

I connected the PC that I use for TGC with an HDMI cable.
I just made sure the video card had HDMI output on it and it's golden!

+1. HDMI from laptop to 65" LG UHD 4K TV; works very nicely for me. In Windows, you'll need to make sure that your settings in Control Panel are set to mirror on the TV what the computer's display shows. A projector may provide a more immersive experience, but does require a projector and impact screen and, possibly, more controlled room lighting. A big screen TV provides unparalleled image quality, so it's a trade-off.

In reading the OP's post, though, I wonder if he is not asking whether he can connect the ST to a smart TV directly, without an intermediate computer or iOS device. I think the answer to that would be no, since the ST app software or sim software is needed and has to run on a computer or iOS device, rather on the TV directly.
