I own a SmartTV from Thomson who support "Miracast" for "Screen Mirroring", i have successfull tested it on Android-Device.
Now my question is what software i need in Ubuntu 18.04 to mirror the screen + sound from linux to SmartTV.
Unfortantly i don't have found something actual on this.
Thanks in advance.

There's Miraclecast,
https://github.com/albfan/miraclecast
https://launchpad.net/~thopiekar/+archive/ubuntu/miraclecast
And instructions / a discussion from a few years back... I do not know if this has become more user friendly since, or not.
https://github.com/albfan/miraclecast/issues/4
I looked into this a while back when I got a "smart tv", and ended up making the the lazy decision to buy a chromecast device instead.
Thank you, i think its better to use chromecast too, do you stream over the browserplugin (chrome) with chromecast, is there a possiblity to stream desktop including sound?

I've been casting from Chrome browser. There's mkchromecast mkchromecast.com (should be installable form ubuntu repositories), maybe that would do what you want, I have not tried it.
