Watch phone video feed on TV?

[Gliddenwoods]

Is it possible (if so, how) to watch cell phone video on Oliver TV monitor? I have a Vizio monitor and a Furrion stereo control panel.

If you have an Android phone on the same WiFi network as the TV you can often screencast videos directly to the TV. Look for the symbol at the top of the video on your phone. It'll bring up a list of available TVs on the network. (This will require a decent Wi-Fi connection. We use a hotspot.)

Some brands of Android phones will also let you use a USB-C to HDMI cable, which you could plug into the Furrion's HDMI input (Pixel phones do not.)

I have seen the ApplePlay option in the Vizio menus for those with iPhones but I've never tried it.

I have also connected a laptop to the Furrion head unit with an HDMI cable and sent videos to the TV that way.

As an aside, you can get the TV audio to come out of your stereo speakers by selecting the ARC (audio return channel) input on your Furrion stereo.
