If sound is coming from both your laptop and the TV you'll need to disable hardware acceleration.

 

➕ Extra Features

 

Streaming Notification

Airtame will place a reminder on your screen to remind you that you are streaming, we call this the streaming notification. It also provides the ability to quickly add audio or terminate that stream without opening the app.

The notification can be moved around the screen or dismissed by clicking on the X in the top-right corner. You can enable or disable it by going to the app settings.

 

Pin Code Connect

Airtame lets you enable a pin code so users must enter a 4-digit passcode before starting a stream. The password is shown on the TV screen. This will ensure that only users in the room watching the screen can connect and start streaming.

⚠️ Troubleshooting

See the message “Couldn't Connect to Airtame”?

  • You may not connected to the WiFi where Airtame is available. Check the TV screen to see what WiFi Network you should be connected to.
  • Ask your Airtame administrator to ensure the connection between computer and Airtame is still possible.
  • Your Airtame may have been put on a guest network where the connection is not possible.

I don't see where to open the app?

Windows

  • The app shows as a small icon in your System Tray. Sometimes it can be in the overflow section represented by an upward arrow ˄. In this case, we recommend dragging the icon to the main System Tray.
  • If you don't see the Airtame icon in your System Tray launch the Airtame app from your Start Menu.

macOS

  • The app shows as a small icon in your Menu Bar.
  • If you don't see the Airtame icon in your Menu Bar launch the Airtame app from your Applications folder or LaunchPad.
