Re: Screen mirroring not working

Jump to solution

Just discovered I've lost my ability to Mirror form Win10 Dell to RokutTV 49S517.  Worked fine during the summer. Started to connect, then told me it couldn't, and disconnected. Tried again, and Connecting to device box now stuck on screen. I removed my RokuTV and even though Win10 finds it, it won't connect. Bluetooth works fine on my earpods, so I doubt it's a bluetooth problem.  Seems to be a RokuTV problem.

I had the same issue. Tried everything they said to do. Then I unplugged my TV and plugged it back in. And it worked.

I had tried that and uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Reset Roku and fixed. Was trying to avoid that, but it fixed problem

Sorry for the delay. I know these issues can be a pain. It is not a ROKU issue. I know that's what we would like to think, since we can't figure out what the **bleep** the problem is within windows 10.

 

Windows 10 has far more things that can go wrong. About the bluetooth. I never said it was the culprit.

On my win 10 laptop, i have bluetooth on, and ensure the ROKU is connected to the same wifi network. Once I mirror and it connects, i then can turn off the wifi to save data gb usage and the windows 10 will still mirror using bluetooth. Just sharing this info with you.

Discovering the exact variable of why it's no longer working is a detailed time consuming thing. Which I why i took the time to go through every step of the process that led me to resolve the issue.

 

Also unbelievably, sometimes some of the most simple solutions evade us. LIke in my case, I continued trying by process of tedious elimination each thing I could think of for over two months, then after I resolved it, is when I remembered... all i had to do in the meantime is run a HDMI 12foot cable straight from my laptop to the tv, until I figured out what the **bleep** was going on.

For me, my Firewall's setting for streaming got changed to another Network, preventing connection.

A fix that worked for me: I removed the Windows 10 PC from the devices list on my Roku (via Settings>System>Screen Mirroring) then I was able to connect using the same Win10 PC. Note, Roku did not add the PC back to the list like I think it is supposed to.

Before doing this the connection would stall when initiating. In the past (months or years ago) it used to work fine then at some point the stall thing began. Maybe due to a SW update on the Win or Roku side? Don't know but it works now, at least for the moment.

Thanks to jackadision001 who posted on 12-31-19. I tried to reply to that post but somehow generated a new one instead.

Let you wifi configuration clear and try again. It work's to me.

 

Just restore network configuration and don't configure it again.
