Miracast is not the same thing as WiDi and anyway it's just another bunch of competing proprietary protocols except for screen casting instead of streaming.
intel's WiDi software supported Miracast, which is a standard.
They're all "standards", yet no two TVs will work the same (if at all) — even when they're the same make as the phone.
