1. Hold the Home button on your Amazon Fire remote for a few seconds. This brings up a menu with options to sleep, change settings, or mirror. Click the mirroring option in the center and Fire TV will start looking for a device to connect to.
2. On your Windows 8 or Windows 10 computer (Windows 7 isn’t supported without additional third party hardware), look in the lower right corner of the screen to find the notification icon. It should look like a small text message box (it may or may not be an empty outline). Click the notifications icon to open the Windows action center, then click Connect.
3. You should now see Fire TV listed in the Connect screen on your computer. Click your Fire device on the list and Windows will initiate the mirroring/casting process.
4. Still need help? Click the “Chat with Us” bar in the lower left hand corner of the ShowTix4U.com/stream screen to speak with a technical support specialist at ShowTix4U.com!
**You may notice the screen stream is small or difficult to see. You can fix this by changing the resolution on your Windows device. Right click on your desktop and choose Graphics Properties. In the menu that opens, choose Display, scroll to Resolution and select 1280×720. If this resolution doesnot work, select others until you find one that does. The screen may flicker and mirroring maytemporarily disable, but once the setup recovers, you’ll be streaming once again.
