    So I have bootcamp installed Windows 8 on my macbook retina pro, the other end connecting to the tv is the mibox I forgot which version. I searched around a bit and found out that win 8.1 has an inbuilt miracast detector so you have the option to connect it. I searched further and found that Intel has software to allow win 8 to connect but when I install it it says my macbook lacks the proper hardware.

    Here is my question is it true my macbook version doesn't have the proper hardware which would be weird cos I believe it can connect to Macs airplay but I don't have the hardware to try it.

    If let's say I update my win from 8 to 8.1 will it be able to with on miracast with the mibox
