Display Maps to Television

I have a 55" TV that I want to display my maps for Dungeon of the Mad Mage. The TV will lay horizontally. I want to use Fog of War and gradually reveal the map to my players. My campaign includes the DMM Maps and Cards add-on and it is finally working. How do I use the TV as a "players" or "player" screen and use my laptop as my DM screen? Has anyone here done this?

You have to make a dummy account

I use a dummy account logged in with incognito that I send to my Chromecast, which is plugged into the tv.

Anthony V. said: You have to make a dummy account So, then I need a second device to connect to the TV, because if I just have a dummy account in Firefox, for example, and the GM account in Chrome on the same computer, whenever I am in Chrome doing GM stuff, it is still displayed on the TV.&nbsp; The TV I will use is probably close to 10 years old. It has 4 HDMI ports but I don't think it has Bluetooth.&nbsp; Presently I used a VGA cable from my laptop to display on the TV because HDMI is not working.&nbsp; I am not currently using the TV for game play. I am HOPING to use it with Roll20 in the (near) future.

Indeed. This is a very fun way to play. Simply hook up a laptop logged in as a "Player" to the TV. Just be sure to give the account control over things like the PCs so that computer can move items. I've found that it works best if the players operate the maps/etc on the TV (pan the map and such) during the game, as if they're playing on Roll20 at home.
