Possible to project onto TV?

[C Nelson]

Is it possible to project my Reunion files/family pages and/or charts onto a TV? My files are large and printing charts for a family reunion is cost prohibitive. Apple TV streams, will it project Reunion? Are there other options available?
Thanks.

I can use my TV as an external monitor, but the resolution leaves a bit to be desired. I use an HDMI cable, and a separate input on the TV. Your setup may be different.

Airplay will mirror your computer, tablet or iPhone screen through the Apple TV, but the result will depend on the resolution of the TV.

AirParrot is worth exploring (and very inexpensive). It works better than the built-in AirPlay.

I use projectors, AppleTV and have used both AirParrot and its companion product Reflector. As long as a WiFi network is available, AppleTV, using AirPlay, is the fastest setup and simplest to use. There's nothing particularly wrong with the two Squirrel products. I simply appreciate the ability, using AppleTV, to walk in, plug in and start showing. The others take more steps.
