Using AirParrot 3 to play PTE slideshows on HDTV

I have been testing AirParrot 3 to stream to my bedroom HDTV. It is an older Sony HDTV with one HDMI port and that does not have integrated support for any of the 3 popular wireless display technologies. Instead I have a Google Chromecast device. I have Airparrot 3 setup as Display 2 when using PTE so I can preview my slideshows on the HDTV without using a HDMI cable. I had previously tried using Google Chrome Cast Desktop option but was not happy with the results.

Available for Windows and Mac. I use the Mac version. There is a downloadable 7 day demo version.

My Chromecast device. It is often on sale at Amazon. I think mine was $25 for the 4K version.
