I have Samsung UE40J5200AW and it has that screen mirroring feature. Whenever I try to use to cast from Windows 11 to this TV, the stream stops after few mins of playing.

I have no idea if Samsung doesnt allow to play full screen videos from casting devices or not. I have tried to connect both PC and TV via Ethernet and see if it will help, but its happening all the time.

Whats interesting it also happens when I cast via my lineage os phone and I checked it on different TV and had the same issue.

Whats your ways to cast videos from PC/laptop to TV?

    I’ve used Moonlight (app) and Steam Link (both the app and discontinued physical hardware). They’re both pretty decent, but I haven’t used either in ages.

    It depends on what you’re trying to run, but both are free so you should just give it a try.

    Edit: I misread the original post as being some silly freeze-gamer question. I used to use the physical Steam Link for watching videos a long time ago, but if you’re just running video files I’d recommend something like Plex.
