Convergence, convergence, convergence ... Very often, the manufacturers sell us an interoperability-you-by-jure-that it-is-all-simple-dés now and above all a connectivity between simplified machines.But the reality is quite different.Between the different operating systems, the protocols of some, the non -generalized standards of others, the closed circuit of such a or its comrade, difficult, in the end, to know immediately and without wiping the plaster how to display theMultimedia content of your smartphone or tablet on a TV, a thread or by the magic of the tunes.From the Selfie of Mamie Françoise with her favorite dwarf rabbit to the right fashion game game by passing everywhere, everything, everything, you will have all the cards in hand so as not to get lost in what is definitely still, in 2014, a realBag of knots.

Note for users of a Windows Phone, Nokia Lumia smartphone or other brands: go directly to the wireless connection section of our folder, to Miracast paragraphs (from Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1) and DLNA, because C'is lost on these wired land.
