Easiest way is to get a laptop with an HDMI out and just plug it in.

There are many ways to do such things and some of them (like mine) can be extremely elaborate. But if you’re just wanting the simplest way forward, get a long hdmi wire (monoprice.com) and plug the sucker in and enjoy.

Thank you and all the others. I may just need to Byte (lol) the bullet and plug the darn thing in via HDMI.
Just thought there had to be a way wirelessly to accomplish this since the Tivo and laptop and smart phone are all on the same network. Moleman’s not very bright :p

2nd easiest is to get a usb to hdmi converter. I do a monitor to cdmi converter for my apple which i’m typing on now on my big screen projection.

Most laptops and TVs these days have a simple VGA port. A laptop older than 3 years may not have an HDMI out but it will have a VGA out. A cable for VGA to the two would do it as well.

Wirelessly will be a pain.
