Have a windows 10 laptop and an android phone - my idea is to extend my display onto my phone so that I can maximise my laptop screen and have betfair pics on mobile screen.

However, early testing for this approach has not been great. Have used a product called 'spacedesk' which connects fine to the phone over wifi, but slows the connection down too much to make the ladders tradable.

Really it needs to be a USB approach, but those seem to be difficult to come by. Be good to hear if anyone else has a solution, or what you use when on the road.

why dont you just load live video on your phone, rather than transferring the picture over from your laptop.
Otherwise run it in the background while you need to maximise laptop screen and rely on audio? its important to see the video at all times?

it's delayed through the betfair app - don't know about the website?

I trade in-running so pics are good to have. They aren't a necessity, given the way I trade, but are useful to know what's happening.
