Measures to take if Screen Mirroring does not work anymore after a firmware update of an Android or iOS device?
We recommend checking regularly for new firmware of your projector (see Update software, page 20). Screen mirroring does not work with the available Android device. Check if the resolution of the computer is set to 1920*1080 (for VGA connection) or 1080P (for HDMI connection). time, the surface becomes hot. Check that the power cable is connected correctly. Format the USB storage device in FAT32 or NTFS format, then use it. Check the batteries of the remote control. In order to allow screen mirroring, your device must support Miracast. Not all Android devices support this function. The function name can be also known as Screencast, Screen Sharing, WiFi Direct, Wireless Display, etc.. Please refer to the user manual of your Android device to check if this function is supported and how it can be enabled. The available WiFi bandwidth is insufficient for sending the video flawlessly from the smartphone to the projector. This can happen if one or more WiFi networks operate in the same frequency range nearby. Certain IoT devices (e.g. ZigBee enabled devices) also operate in this frequency range. Your smartphone is not fast enough to compress the screen data and send it simultaneously over WiFi. Your smartphone may maintain parallel connections to your home network and the projector. This will reduce the available bandwidth. Disabling temporarily the connection to your home network may help. When I view videos, the sound or the picture is sometimes distorted or the sound is not synchronized to the picture. The temperature of the projectors surface is warm. For this projector it is normal to generate moderate heat during operation. What to do if the projector does not work when connecting to a notebook PC?
Check that the HDMI cable is plugged in correctly. Make sure that the notebook PC has been switched to projector display. 22 Philips NeoPix Prime 2 10 Appendix Technical data Technology/optical Apps Pre loaded apps ..........................
