No, the multimedia player sends a 720p signal to the tv. So while you can play 1080p using hdmi out, it's scaled to 720p.

mmm so this should be updated? or its a never will change lol, always wil be 720? or should be updated when the phone gets update

I'm guessing a 1080p signal will be sent to the tv when moto updates the camcorder to shoot in 1080p.

How to watch HD movies?

I have 720p movies ripped from original disc to MKV on my desktop. How do I watch these 720p movies on my EVO? Is there an easier way to put movies on my EVO?
Another question, when I go to YOUTUBE.com on my EVO, all the videos look blurry and are horrible quality... Even when I do a search for 720p quality videos, when I play the video it looks horrible... What am I doing wrong?
What audio/video codecs were used during the encodong?
With youtube, click the HQ button. That should increase the quality.
i have also set youtube to high quality from the setting but still no 720p videos even after the HQ on.

The Evo doesn't have support for HD video. What you're looking for is the HQ button, which stands for high quality. Not all videos have the HQ button enabled.

Sounds like you may be browsing to YouTube. Instead, go to "All apps" and open the "YouTube" app.
It all depends on the videos themselves. For example, lookup any new movie trailers and set the app to HQ, they should look spectacular.
Remember, Android still doesn't have a quality video player akin to CorePlayer for WinMo.
The device itself (correct me if I'm wrong) does not support playback at 720p on its own screen; it outputs 720p via the HDMI port.

You are correct--720p is 1280x720 and the EVO's screen is 800x480. So it will play 720p video, but scaled down to fit the EVO's screen resolution.
As far as playing video on the EVO screen, I think it will play any resolution (although you may get performance issues at very high resolutions) but scaled to fit the screen.
What programs are you guys using for ripping? Just curious...
Handbrake cya
settings
handbrake.
Aspect ratio: 800 x 480
Video codec: H.264(x264)
Framerate: Same as source
Avg Bitrate: 1500

All other settings stay at default. Videos come out crazy!! I got Avatar and Iron Man

It's not cheap, but I figure that is the cost of having the freedom to copy blu-ray to my other devices. It would be nice though if it was a one time cost, but alas it is not.

1080p player

Can the hd play 1080p ?
Why would you want to play 1080p? The screen is not capable of playing even 720p, so why bother. 720p plays fine, so I guess the DHD might be able to play low bitrate 1080p.
e: Okay, maybe dlna : )

To send it to a HD tv using the dlna technology?
Does DHD's DLNA do transcoding? If it doesn't, you should be able to stream those videos.

video format and resolution

What format and resolution should I convert to for the xperia arc to play videos?
I have some cartoon shows in wmv format and I want to play them on the xperia. The specs for xperia arc is - 854x480 pixels - 4.2" 16,777,216 colour TFT.
I currently have an htc eris android and it only plays 3gp by default. So should I convert to 3gp for xperia arc as well? I'm too cheap to buy any video players from the market.
I think an mp4 should be sufficient. That's the resolution that will support on the arc
the panel is a a40p, but with the LED subanel, we have better resolution, the diference seeing a 720p video to a 480p is really great... about format, mp4 and m4k are the only ones that work to this moment

MKV only in 720p? Why not 1080p? Is this software issue or hardware isn't able to playback so high resolution??
my phone can play 1080p which I take from youtube with my default media player
you can play 1080, but the density of the screen is only a 480, the 720p`video is to "duplicate" the quality displayed but i think is a waste to play 1080 video

I understand, but the hdmi support is enchanced to the info of the screen, you only can output 720p quality, or that is what say the specs, you can try and tell us it is working, that would.be aweome

I had connected by Arc on an Full HD monitor and it only outs 720p when I watched some TV series (the video source is MKV and is at 480p rendered via software via MX Player). In this regard, I think the HDMI capability of Arc is only to 720p. That means even if you have an 1080p video on Arc, it will out only at 720p via the HDMI. I will confirm this limitation once I got the chance.
In the service menu in HDMI settings the highest choice given is 720 so it does appear to be that way

Software Upgrade will allow 1080p

Video
HD 1080 p capable
Capture – 720p MPEG4 and H.264 at 30 fps
Playback – 1080p MPEG4, H.264, WMV, Xvid at 30 fps
(Playback through HDMI is 720p at launch and will be upgraded to 1080p via SW upgrade post-launch)
Streaming – VGA in MPEG4, H.264, H.263 at 30 fps
That'll be nice ... i've already made the iPhone guy at work jealous by hooking the HDMI cable to his TV and playing right off the phone. he had to go and by an apple tv just to stream from his phone (and with out wires). little does he know, the Atrix has DLNA and so does my TV. so when he goes to show off his wireless streaming harware, i'll switch to DLNA and say "Yeah, there's and App for That"
how did you get your atrix to play games off the phone? That is impossible, no? Doesn't it just launch the media dock?

He didn't say games if I read it right. Maybe he meant that he just played a movie right off the phone.

OP, thanks for posting that.
sadly the update is just for 1080p playback, NOT recording.
About time someone else noticed that. Never understood where people got the idea that the update had to do with recording..

The fact sheet used to say 1080p was coming for recording and for playback, but it's been modified and now only says it's coming for playback. You can cross your fingers and hope the 1080p recording update still comes eventually, but it looks like Moto used that to hype the phone then pull the feature.
anthing about multitouch? its only dual touch aint it?

[Q] Full hd video playback

I justried to play full HD videos through my pendrive......the default video player says file cannot be played and when I try to play through mobo player the audio and video is out of sync....I thought this tab plays full HD videos.....guys some advice!!
AFAIK it doesn't. 3.1 should have Full HD support but 3.0.1 doesn't have it.
I could be wrong though.
3.1 as far as we know will not play 1080p videos only output them via HDMI.
Currently only 720p can be played.
I hope im wrong about the first thing.
But in the tabs config it was written that it plays full hd videos!
And even xoom plays full hd vids!

did u try a player like Mobo?
FullHD 1080p wmv works and probably the same with some mkv's but audio will not ... it will just scale the video to 720p..
you can try mkv's with "Astro filemanager" -> Open As -> video
and the mkv will play, if not already loaded automatically..
this also works for other formats..

i would expect 1080p MP4 recordings working too, if you got 720p working.
but it probably all depends on encoding..

it's kind of overload the works of your tablet...
tablet have to convert and downscale anyway to render the video... since 1080 > 800
you should convert, it's the best things and that will save in a way the battery....
I just say.

I think most people are actually talking about HDMI output, which at the moment is stuck at 720p.

its not stuck at 720p.. but if you think about it, your native tablet resolution is 1280x800 , which is natively projected/mirrored to your telly and if you want 1080p which is then going to happen with it?
its gonna scale it...
if your video of 1920x1080 should be played on a tv without mirror, it could work, but i doubt it got the videomemory to have 1 fullHD and one scaled at 1280x1080 . which is the problem right now..
but i know Atrix4G have something like that, as i uses 2 separate displays at the same time. so it might be we get that function..no video on tablet, but fullHD on telly.

I dont think so, because have a checked topic for this problem. And some files is played fine, except 1080 i though have some problem with the Tegra2 decode, not because of OS.
So confuse about this problem, if can not play smoothly 720 and 1080, so HDMI output for nothing.
Another thing is can we play flash game in facebook with 3.0?
