Screen mirroring

Several new smart tv's and smart phones have a screen mirroring feature. Basically share your smart phone screen on your tv. I know my sony blu-ray dvd player has this feature. And I thought google's tv stick did this but I was wrong on that count. My goal would be to use my dish anywhere feature to screen mirror to the tv in my camper. I am wondering if anyone has been successful with this. Like I said my blu-ray player is supposed to but it seems that sony is not compatible with my particular smart phone (samsung g4 running droid version 4.3). I tried the same thing with my wife's laptop whihc is supposed to have this mirroring feature to the blu ray and it too did not work.

Samsung's mirroring isn't great. I have a Galaxy S6 and a Samsung TV and can mirror it, but the audio is delayed substantially when playing games/movies.

Fairly sure if you try to mirror to a Sony you'd need hardware like an Allshare hub. Samsung mirrors best to Samsung.

Sorry I don't know more about the S4 mirroring.

Edit: the S4 had an MHL port apparently, this would probably be better for lag-free mirroring:

might work
