If I have Amazon Prime on my laptop (Medion), can I somehow transfer that to my TV or connect my laptop and TV? If so, how do I do that?
What does your laptop have for connections and what does your TV have for which?
Simply matching cable and ready.
For around 20 euro you also get a FireTV Stick. We recommend.
The simplest would be the Amazon Fire TV Stick, because even the laptop is gone and you can operate the Amazon program by remote control.
Alternatively, a HDMI cable from laptop to TV and mirror the screen. (If the devices are not extremely old they both have the connection, all other cables have the disadvantage that the sound is not transmitted)
If only the question of whether everything must be HDCP-compatible.
I would not be sure about that now.
Pretty much every laptop and TV today has an HDMI port. This could be connected to the laptop with the TV. An HDMI cable does not cost the world if you do not have one yet. Do you get online z. B. On Amazon or at Saturn and Media Markt, if there's one of the stores in your area.
Otherwise, as already mentioned, a Fire TV Stick is worth it: https://www.amazon.de/...B0791YHVMT
The is also connected to the HDMI port of the TV. With a remote control, you can then access a menu to view the content. A voice control is also mentioned by the way. If necessary, you can also get various apps via the Fire TV Stick.
The simplest is probably the FireTV Stick:
Fire TV Stick with Alexa voice remote control https://www.amazon.de/...0791YHVMT/
Otherwise just connect via HDMI cable.
Do you still get promotional bonuses when selling the FireTV Stick?
Okay… Somehow, everyone here seems to be involved in the FireTV Stick.
Sure it is a way to make a TV with HDMI slot to a kind of "smart TV". But it costs according to Amazon currently 40 - 60 EUR.
Another cheaper alternative is to buy an HDMI cable. Some are even thrown after them.
Connect the laptop + TV via HDMI.
Windows PC?
Then via Notification menu → Project → Duplicate | Expand | 2. Select the screen.
Attention when duplicating monitor like TV show the same.
When expanding, the TV is an additional monitor. By right-clicking → Display Settings, you can identify which NR the respective monitor has and change the order by identifying it. If, for example, the TV is on the left and the laptop on the right, you have to move your mouse to the left. Otherwise you could confuse yourself.
The browser window with the movie should then be sent to the monitor from the TV. Positive on the other monitor could do something else.
The 2nd screen option ensures that only the TV is viewed as a monitor. Until the HDMI is disconnected (usually) or the setting changed. Depending on the question comes at the beginning if you want to keep the attitude.
Otherwise, just as normal as you do it via the browser. Select movie, full screen and watch.
And if you already have a Smart TV, then just go to the PlayStore or AppStore of the device and search for "Prime" or "Amazon". I would be surprised if this app did not exist there.
Otherwise, the current prices for smart TVs can indeed refer to the various advertising catalogs. But as long as the other TV still goes why not wait.
Usually not.
Actually, any TV HD, but not all laptops 4K. Thus, the display on the TV will always be HD. Whether with or without Fire TV
