The matter was quickly investigated and came across the following valuable piece of information taken literally from the Connect|SDK app website. Should you be experiencing the same dilemma, please refer to below disclaimer.
With Connect SDK integrated in the mobile app, it can cast the screen and sound into the TV screen.
This allows you to extend the screen of a mobile app to a larger TV screen and share it with your
family.
This guide assumes that you completed the setup described in the Setup Instructions.
There are two ways to display the screen to your TV.
- Screen mirroring: A way to display the entire app screen to the TV.
- Dual screen: A way to create a second screen of the app and display it on the TV while leaving the app screen separate. Dual screen is provided as a screen mirroring function.
