Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Bought this to act as a second monitor between my Mac and my TV in another room.
Firstly, I had to download the Mac drivers online as they were not available on the CD that came with. However, after finding the drivers on the support page, everything installed easily.
Secondly, it seemed to work fine through exactly 1 wall; the manual says it needs line-of-sight, but if it's just one wall you might be fine. The transmitters heat up quite a bit, probably due to the frequency they run on, but other than that the transmitters were easy to hide and did not create eyesores.
Finally, it worked well with general tasks and browsing the internet, including playing videos through vlc. However, it would not play videos in full-screen at all and what's worse, the drivers made it impossible to play flash video/animations online at all, regardless if I was even using the second display. This led me to attempt to uninstall the software and drivers, however there is no uninstall process for the drivers, just the software and thus you will be stuck with a 'Wireless Dongle' icon in your task-bar for the rest of eternity.
I'm sure this works fine with a Windows machine, but it only succeeded in under-performing and breaking my Mac's ability to play flash. I'll wait until a software-agnostic media transmitter comes along.
