There are numerous ways to connect a network device to your waiting room TV. While Swarm Interactive does not offer hardware support, we can give you some suggested methods for getting your VMcast onto your TV. All methods assume your TV has an HDMI port and you have an internet connection. If you have a hardware connection problem, consult the support website from the hardware manufacturer for help.
