BRILOCEA Wireless HDMI Transmitter and Receiver, Wireless HDMI Extender Kit for Laptop and PC, Plug & Play, Wireless HDMI Dongle Adapter for Streaming Video/Audio from Laptop/PC to HDTV Projector

Software solutions for mirroring a screen are all different, whereas hardware HDMI is HDMI; the same everywhere. This hardware solution to screen mirroring is painless and a pleasure to share a computer screen with a large TV. If the HDMI power from the source and target is insufficient, each receiver (RX) and transmitter (TX) allows a micro-USB port for external power. The image mirrored is precise and responsive.

I am using this product to replace a long HDMI cable between my laptop and an HDMI projector. This lets me watch online movies projected onto a larger screen on a wall, and do so without worrying about tripping over a long cable. The wireless HDMI link is working great, and I love this product! Initially, however, I ran into an intermittent - but major - problem of sometimes getting black blank screen where an online movie - such as Amazon Prime movies and certain YouTube movies - should be showing. (But I was able to resolve this issue, as explained below.) INTERMITTENT PROBLEM - BLANK SCREEN FOR ONLINE MOVIES: As mentioned, this problem manifests itself as a black blank screen where an online movie should have been displayed. And I immediately knew this issue was related to HDCP. (NOTE: HDCP = High-Bandwidth Digital Content Protection. Not to be confused with HDMI, which is High-Definition Multimedia Interface.) From the sellers product description, my understanding is that this wireless HDMI dongle pair does support HDCP. (Without the HDCP, online movies cannot be transmitted via HDMI; this results in a black blank screen I was intermittently seeing.) So on paper, I shouldnt have any problem sending online movies from my laptop to the HDMI projector over the wireless link using this product, functionally replacing a physical HDMI cable. But in practice, at least based on my experience, the wireless transmission of HDCP seemed glitchy. I would often see a blank movie screen soon after I set up the wireless dongle pair. This was not too bad, as I could usually resolve it by simply trying again or waiting a little. But even after I start watching an online movie successfully, the blank black screen would return intermittently and unpredictably, usually 20~40 seconds at a time. This was very annoying especially in the middle of a movie. Note that this blank screen was happening only with protected movie contents involving HDCP, such as major motion pictures. I didnt experience any issues when watching non-protected YouTube videos or for just projecting a regular laptop screen / power point presentation, etc. THE SOLUTION: I read on the Internet that it is possible to strip HDCP data by placing an HDMI splitter in the HDMI signal chain, in order to resolve issues related to HDCP. So I tried an HDMI switch/splitter box I had on hand (ASIN: B09MJ176NR), and placed it in between the laptop and the transmitter dongle in the HDMI signal chain. And this worked like a charm! No more blank screen, and now I can reliably watch any online contents using the HDMI projector. ADDITIONAL TIPS: As is described in the instruction manual, the HDMI dongles (the transmitter and receiver) may require 5V DC power supplied through a micro USB port found on each dongle. For more wireless convenience, I am currently using a large USB power bank, placed on top of the HDMI projector, to power the HDMI receiver dongle plugged into the back of the projector. On the transmitter side, I discovered that extra power may not be required for the transmitter dongle when it is plugged into the HDMI splitter box (being used for stripping HDCP data, as explained above.) Apparently, the HDMI port could supply enough power, at least when plugged into the splitter box. (Your mileage may vary, depending on the specific connected device.) CONCLUSION The glitchy HDCP data transmission resulting in blank screens for online movies (doesnt affect non-protected digital contents) is unfortunate, even though I was able to resolve it by adding an HDMI splitter box. With that issue resolved, I couldnt be happier with the wireless convenience this product provides. So overall I am rating this product 4 stars, deducting one star for the intermittent blank screen issue that happens when transmitting protected digital contents (eg., online movies.) I still do recommend this (or a similar) product, because I find the wireless HDMI link so convenient. But if your use case involves protected contents sent over the wireless HDMI link, be ready to add an HDMI splitter box to resolve the intermittent blank screen issue you too may experience.

The Wireless HDMI Transmitter and Receiver worked well for both video and sound. I was able to send 1080p Full HD video and sound at 60fps with no noticeable latency. The dongles felt a bit too flimsy and can be squeezed almost too easily. The caps needed to be attached to the units with at least a string so that they dont get misplaced. Both the transmitter and receiver MUST be powered via the micro-USB ports. Pairing was easily done by holding down the button on the transmitter.

The wireless hdmi dongles worked well and were easy to set up.
