[Q] HdMi out? - Droid X General

Any news on the hdmi video out feature? Also why cant we use the 3.5mm plug ? will we be able to after roms are availible?

Check "real HDMI" in the market.
Allows use of HDMI out, just not dual display as I believe the processor is not capable.

Sarcasm ftw.
Need a little more info, are you rooted, running a custom rom, what program are you trying to get too play on your tv? I love how people come on and post crap like this and expect a decent answer.

Not every device you plug the HDMI cord into is compatible with the HDMI stack on the Evo. For example: My LG TV accepts the HDMI out just fine, but my RCA TV causes my phone to instantly reboot.
It would REALLY help if you gave more info. What kind of movie? What player? What codec, resolution, bitrate is the movie? What kind of tv? where did you get the cable?

Try this as soon as the video starts playing unplug the HDMI and plug it back in. I have to do this all the time. You might have to do it more than once.

Usb to hdmi

Hi, I was just wondering if you guys think sony will release software to enable us to use a microusb to hdmi lead or maybe even a devoloper on xda could make a program.
Also would it even be possible?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is a hardware limitation. Is it not?

The USB port is not capable of video output on the Xperia Play from everything I have seen and read which is a hardware limitation.
Thats sad news, was really hoping to be able to connect to my tv. kinda wish I bought a Samsung gs2 now, not that im disappointed with my play I love it lol

Apparently there's a dock out/coming out that gives it a hdmi port.
If theres a dock that includes HDMI support, I dont see why you couldent just use a microUSB to HDMI adapter.
Apparently the dock is for the other xperias and not the play. Besides the dock would be ok for watching stuff but hopeless if you wanted to play games.

The dock itself doesn't support hdmi.

Use tab as a monitor for flip cam, possible?

My sister just game me her flip cam minohd M2120M and i was wondering if it would be possible to connect it to the tab via hdmi. I would like to use my tab as an external monitor while recording. I know video can be sent out from the tab, but can it be used in reverse? It would be a nice feature but i think i am wishing too much . Any ideas or suggestions welcomed.

Fairly confident the HDMI is out only.
Edit: Only way I could think of to make it work is the tablet as a DLNA renderer and the camera hooked up to broadcast it's HDMI output as a DLNA stream.
Well i fugured as much, i just wanted to keep it simple if it was possible.

[Q] Audio out through USB: Possible on defy?

Hi, is it possible to stream the audio output through the usb port like on other devices (i.e. droid razr)
It would be very nice to implement it, if it's possible at hardware level.
Defy / Defy+ TV Out
I think it's possible look that : http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-TV-Out-Video-audio-AV-Cable-4-MOTOROLA-Defy-MB525-SKN6261A-/260894518704
Excuse me but this not what I asked for! I'm talking about audio out trough USB port. In your link there's a video out trough 3,5 headphone port cable....

With the locked bl, there isn't much hope.
Even with the new quarx kernels?

Because HDMI is ALL it has. no composite video on ring2 of the headphone jack, no other way to get video out of the phone onto a bigger screen.
you plug this into your phone, then you can plug your phone into a monitor or projector that doesn't have an HDMI input but has VGA or RGBHV (with appropriate cables)
Many conference rooms/presentation rooms/auditoriums still don't have HDMI/DVI on podiums but use RGB video distribution systems,
and it looks great.
That's why we need this!
Cool! Thanks for this! I have a monitor and speakers I use with my netbook. Now when my netbook is being used for couponing by my roommate I can watch stuff without dragging my roku to my bedroom!
