Mirroring - special hints

Version V1.62

Depending on the setup and your third-party devices used, your Android or Windows devices may not support Miracast.

To enable the support of AirPlay, Chromecast and also Miracast for all operating systems, the internal access point of Cynap Pure has to be enabled.

General MS-MICE information

Miracast MS-MICE is supported with Windows 10 (built 1703 and later).

If MS-MICE is enabled, multicast DNS (mDNS) uses the UDP port 5353 for Miracast connection over an existing network.

mDNS is broadcast to the local subnet of each network interface the Cynap Pure is connected to. If mDNS is blocked in the network, the Miracast connection fails. In this case it is necessary to create a DNS entry at the existing DNS server to the Cynap Pure hostname.

The Cynap system sends a beacon via the integrated WLAN module with information about which Miracast settings have been made, to initiate a session.

Network requirements

Ensure Miracast is not blocked by any security application, e.g. Endpoint Security Software and virus scanners.
