I want the same functionality one gets when connecting a TV and a laptop using a HDMI cable, but wirelessly. I have a Samsung Series 6, Smart TV and want to mirror my Windows 7 PC's video and audio output to the TV without an HDMI cable. If I play a movie in VLC, I should see and hear it on the TV as well.
Can anyone help me?

There are other options specifically designed for wireless screen sharing, like Intel WiDi. However, your computer must support it and the TV may need an adapter. This page has a good list of other alternatives.
