Why can’t i cast onto my tv?｜BJCast
The inability to project mobile phone content onto the TV may be caused by various reasons. Here are some common reasons and their corresponding solutions:
1.Network connectivity issues
The devices are not on the same network:
Ensure that both the phone and TV are connected to the same Wi Fi network. If they are connected to different networks, screen mirroring will not be possible.
Network instability:
Try restarting the router or changing the network to solve the problem of unstable network.
Check the Wi Fi signal strength to ensure good signal quality. If possible, try using a wired connection to improve stability.
2.Equipment compatibility issues
The TV does not support screen mirroring function:
Check if the TV has screen mirroring function and confirm if it is turned on.
Understand whether the TV supports specific screen mirroring protocols (such as DLNA, Miracast, AirPlay, etc.), and ensure that the phone also supports this protocol.
Phone configuration issue:
Ensure that the screen mirroring function of the phone is turned on and try to reconfigure the relevant settings of the phone.
Check if the phone supports screen mirroring function and check if there are any related software updates.
3.Screen mirroring settings issue
The screen mirroring function is not turned on:
On the TV, make sure the screen mirroring function is enabled. You can check the network or screen mirroring options through the TV settings menu.
PIN code error:
If the TV requires a PIN code to complete the connection, please make sure to enter the correct PIN code on your phone.
4.Software or application issues
Software version is outdated:
Regularly check the software updates of your phone and TV to ensure they are all the latest versions.
Update screen casting applications or related software to fix known connection issues and improve compatibility.
Third party screen casting software issue:
If using third-party screen casting software, please ensure that it is installed correctly on both your phone and TV, and that the version is compatible.
Try restarting the screen casting software or uninstalling and reinstalling it.
5.Hardware issues
HDMI cable or interface damaged:
If using an HDMI cable for wired screen mirroring, please check if the HDMI cable is damaged and ensure that both the TV and phone’s HDMI ports are working properly.
Power issue:
Check the power connections of the TV and phone to ensure they are both powered on properly.
If the TV or phone experiences unstable power or frequent restarts, it may lead to screen mirroring failure.
