Is it possible to stream a firestick app over a network to a different room.

As the title says (though I doubt this is possible ) to stream a firestick app to a different room in house or even better to control a firestick from a different room, so that the firestick GUI will appearing on the receiving TV?

I know its not that expensive just to buy another firestick but just wondering if the above is possible though I doubt it.

Thanks for any info on this.

    You can install Fire TV app to control Fire stick devices if you lose your remote or whatever, but probably can't send it to another TV or mirror it.  You can mirror to the Firestick but not mirror itself to another TV, not designed for that.
  • nope, but unplug it and move it to the other tv

    It is possible with one of these:

    Just plug the firestick into the transmitter unit, use the passthrough port for the local TV and then install the receiver with the TV in the other room.

    Do you know how much a new firestick costs cf £143 for one of those. I know it's feasible but really? ...tech solution that costs 6 times as much a non-tech solution :rotfl o:)
