Can I switch off the cell phone display while it is connected to the TV?

Since a TV from me is not a Smart TV, I often connect my cell phone to the TV via USB-C to HDMI to watch Netflix, YouTube etc. On the TV. But what bothers me is that my cell phone is also on and shows the same content. I have no desire to position my cell phone every time so that you can't see the screen. But even then you can still see the light from the cell phone on the wall. Is there any way that the display is from the hand (or just shows black) and the content is still transferred to the TV?

What happens if you turn it off.

Lay your cell phone with the display on the floor?

Turn down the brightness completely, as long as the TV does not change, put a cloth on the cell phone or simply put the display on the floor as already mentioned.

Come on, it's not difficult to understand. He simply says that your picture on the TV is gone as soon as you lock your phone.

With smart tv it would be better because the screen automatically switches off but the content continues to run on the television. With usb-c, I would just put my cell phone on the screen and you would see no light. Then brightness all the way down on the cell phone and brightness all the way up on the television.

If you like youtube Not with the app but with the browser on your smartphone, there's the "desktop version". You activate it. Then activate your desired page. Play. The display can then be switched off and the song continues. If it is still on I never tried TV over HDMI.

how it works with netflix etc. No idea.

That is probably not the point of the matter.
