  Are you primarily a PC/Xbox One gamer, who sometimes has a hankering to play your computer games on your TV from the comfort of your couch? Well, now you can easily do that, as Microsoft has quietly enabled PC to Xbox One streaming. This is made possible by the Wireless Display App, which has been in testing for some time, but now is available to all Xbox One owners. In addition to your PC desktop, the app also lets you stream Android devices to your TV.

  The Wireless Display App is compatible with Xbox One controllers, which ought to make it easy to plays Steam games on your TV in Big Picture mode. Of course, you can stream more than just games to your Xbox One – presentations, videos, and other stuff can be cast to your console, as well. There are some limitations – paid content like Netflix can’t be streamed, and the keyboard and mouse controls aren’t supported. The Wireless Display App supports various latency modes, depending on what you’re streaming. Here’s Microsoft’s official description of the app:

  The same casting experience available on Microsoft's Surface Hub and Windows has finally arrived on Xbox One! Microsoft's Wireless Display app lets you wirelessly project your Windows or Android based devices to your Xbox One.
