Hi there paclemos,


It sounds like you are attempting to AirPlay content from your Mac to your LG TV but an error appears. We're happy to assist and look into this with you.


Make sure your TV is compatible with AirPlay 2. Use this link: Home Accessories


Then make sure your Mac meets the system requirements for video and audio streaming: AirPlay system requirements


Take a look at these steps to help with the specific error you're receiving: If AirPlay or screen mirroring isn’t working on your device


If you need more help, please let us know.
