Power BI slide show on smart TV

Hi,

Client would like to use only smart TV to get report tabs as slide show.

What i managed to do:
1) Laptop > TV. If client uses Power BI Mobile app (not Power BI app on mobile, but Power BI app from Microsoft store) and extends/duplicate screen to smart tv, this works
2) Mobile device > TV. If client uses Yandex/Chrome browser on mobile device and then use Chrome extension to rotate/loop over Power BI report pages links, another app to mirror screen to smart tv, this works

For more details on these 2 steps here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jz6i1X5JOco&t=187s 

However, client will use Amazon Fire Stick for smart TV, and is interested to use ONLY smart TV to it working. 
Is there any step/approach to get rid of steps above and to use only smart TV to have Power BI tabs as slide show (without connection to laptop or mobile)?

Thanks in advance,
Nemanja Andic

Hi  @nandic  ,


Many smart TVs have built-in Wi-Fi functions and support a web browser, so you can connect to the Internet and browse the Web, you can also export them directly from Power bi services to PPT.

Hi @Anonymous , thank you very much for the answer and provided links.
Doing this via pc and extending screen to tv is fairly easy, but having slideshow of report tabs directly from tv was a challenge.
Final solution was creating new basic html file which has a little JavaScript code. We define the layout of the page, links (power bi service > publish embed code), duration of each slide. We bought hosting for this purpose and now this link is bookmarked and available on click (there are also free hostings).

Here is sample code, just save it as .html.

<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Slideshow</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/font-awesome.min.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/slick-carousel/1.9.0/slick.min.css">

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

</head>
<body>

<section id="slideshow">
<div class="slick">
<div><iframe width="1200" height="700" src="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page" frameborder="0" allowFullScreen="true" ></iframe></div>

</div>
</section>

<script src="js/jquery-3.4.1.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/main.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/slick-carousel/1.9.0/slick.min.js"></script>


</body>
</html>

<script>
$(document).ready(() => {
$('#slideshow .slick').slick({
autoplay: true,
autoplaySpeed: 3000,
dots: true,
});
});


</script>

Hi @nandic , try the browser extension Power BI Slider. I believe it may be really useful to your need.
