With Audials One, you can access your own videos and music on your smart TV without connecting your PC with a cable. Your PC acts as a media server, and your smart TV can open the selected media over your home Wi-Fi network.
This is useful when you want to watch movies, series, videos, or listen to music from your PC media collection directly on the TV.
What you need
Before you start, make sure you have:
- a working Wi-Fi network
- a smart TV connected to the same network
