# Can I watch it on my TV?
## Learn how easy it is to watch your Video on Demand on your smart TV.
### **Option 1: PC/Android: Using a Streaming Device to Cast/Stream (Chromecast, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, etc.)**
If you have a streaming device like Chromecast, Roku, or Amazon Fire TV connected to your TV, you can easily stream your rental by following these steps:
1. **Connect your streaming device** to the TV and make sure it's on the same Wi-Fi network as your phone, tablet, or computer.
2. **Open your Video on Demand purchase confirmation email** and find the “Watch Now” button to start playback.
3. **Cast or stream** the video to your TV using the streaming device's casting/streaming feature (process varies according to your equipment).
For detailed instructions, you can visit:

- [Amazon Fire TV Streaming Guide](https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=ToUjwyfVuffzVfbR6b)
### **Option 2: Using HDMI Cable**
If you don’t have a streaming device, you can connect your computer directly to the TV using an HDMI cable:
1. **Plug one end of the HDMI cable** into your device and the other end into your TV.
2. **Change the TV input/source** to the HDMI port connected to your computer.
3. **Open a web browser** on your computer (Chrome, Safari, etc.) and access your email account.
4. **Sign in** to your account and find your Video on Demand confirmation email.
5. **Play the video** by clicking the “Watch Now” button, and it should now be displayed on your TV screen.
### **Option 3: AirPlay (for Apple Devices)**
If you're using an Apple device (iPhone, iPad, Mac), you can use **AirPlay** to stream the video to an Apple TV or any AirPlay-enabled smart TV:
1. **Connect your Apple device **and TV to the same Wi-Fi network.
2. **Open the video** on your Apple device via your Video on Demand confirmation email.
3. **Tap the AirPlay icon** (it looks like a rectangle with an upward arrow) and select your TV.
4. **Start playing the video**, and it will appear on your TV screen.
### **Option 4: Using Your Smart TV’s Web Browser**
If your TV has a web browser, you can directly access your Video on Demand confirmation email from the browser and stream the video:
1. **Open the web browser** on your TV.
2. **Access your email account** on your TV.
3. **Sign in** to your account and find your Video on Demand confirmation email.
**Play the video** by clicking the “Watch Now” button, and it should now be displayed on your TV screen.
