Streaming Netflix Etc On Monitor

[Ian28]

Looking to spec a decent sized (17” plus) flip down TV for a new conversion. No need for normal TV channels & won’t be playing DVDs etc. - will just be used to access internet TV occasionally via a mobile WiFi device when there is signal (only being used when static). I want the sound to play through my audio speakers (not sourced yet). Have iPad Pro which would work with bracket but I want a larger screen.
Anyone running this sort of thing and if so any tips?
Thanks.

Just use a chromecast to send the video from your mobile. Lots of other ways to do it too.

Thanks Ann3x - checked that out & looks like the kind of set up I’m after, might go for the Amazon Fire TV device since it also allows Amazon Prime which I subscribe to as well as Netflix. I’d also like the same arrangement for my music (iTunes/Spotify) - ie controlled via phone/IPad but played through speakers so will look for similar scenario there.

Thanks.

No problem. it used to be that you could cast any tab in chrome to the chromecast. So in theory at least (I haven't tested) you could log into Spotify on the Web on your phone and play it that way. Possibly same with imusic. Worth googling around a bit.
