Generic receiver adapter EZ Cast M2 for Android 1080P player, HDMI, Dongle, Wifi (Electronics)

Customer Review

I have bought myself the adapter to copy from your PC (Windows 7) via Screen Mirror for various applications out the PC monitor for a small group on the TV screen. HDMI support my old notebook does not, VGA my TV does not. DLNA is not a solution, it supports my formats or programs not Chromecast support apparently no screen mirroring. So there was only EZcast as a possible solution.

The stick came from Hong Kong, or about 4 weeks for delivery. Unpack, plug in the TV, manufacture USB powered PSU was unproblematic. The home screen on TV shows SSID, password and web address to download the (PC) software. For download only a registration stating the own Email and the SSID of sticks needed, but the e-mail address does not have to agree :-)

Pulling and installing software was a breeze, combined with the stick also. After the request, in which the network drive to be involved is that Hein Metz plant was also offered the same choice and selected - and now it is a nuisance. 1) It is now connected to the drive as a base station in a private network. Should allow before at his new router equipment Anyone working with MAC filtering so, he now no longer comes off. 2) EZcast does not accept special characters in the wireless password? But I will not reduce the wireless security for this sticks and have no desire to set up all the devices with new passwords. While the connection to the drive runs without integration into a home network, but the PC has then no internet access during EZcast is active.

The other device requires (as it is now) the presentation on TV and the inputs on the PC. The setup pages are however ngezeigt only with Chinese characters, and it was not possible for me to change the language. Although I was able to identify under what symbol the language is called - any languages ​​it but have been listed or offered. However, this is so far not so tragic, because essentially only the Bildschirmauflöung should be set, and here there are only two options: Full HD, or 1280 * 720th
On my older TV that is only HD-ready, running only the lower resolution.

Finally, the good news: Mirror screen runs at least unproblematic. The screen resolution on your PC is automatically adjusted during screen mirroring (Win7), and then put back.
More modes have not been tried for lack of demand.

Addendum:
1) On my Full HD TV will play at 1680 * 1050 resolution, which is the highest resolution of my laptop graphics card.
2) I use the PC a Spyder3 + software for color calibration of my monitors. While going with all connected wired monitors, Win7 switched off as soon as the calibration EZcast is active. On the one hand well because no wrong color calibration is used, on the other hand there is also no possibility here might manually to trick something.
3) The movie playback is disturbed by slight stuttering. Could also on the computing power of my notebook are (Intel Core2 2.2GHz), alone with EZcast active without further applications, the CPU is utilized at 50%.
