[Q] HDMI out

Hi all, I was looking at my shift, and even though it says it doesn't have video-out capabilities I see that the charging port is micro-hdmi. Is it possible to buy a micro-hdmi to hdmi cable and watch netflix and stuff on my TV?

That's micro-USB, not micro-hdmi. You use it to connect to your PC or Mac.

Is there any way to stream media from my shift to a TV? Like Netflix or something?

There is that samsung media streamer that got posted on the portal awhile back. That would be the only way I think, and it would require you have a compatible samsung tv. Or you might be able to use one of those google tv devices to stream from your phone (was that one of the features? I forget)

I use imedia share to stream to my samsung tv. Can stream things already on your phone but not netflix.

Don't think it will work for Netflix , but it does work for the other stuff on your phone. You can give THIS a try, see if it works for you.

Nexus 7 as media server for ps3?

Hi guys just a questiom. I wish to use my nexus 7 as a media server for my ps3. I currently use bubbleupnp but whilst playing audio, the song cuts in and out.
Is there some kind of configuration I am missing? Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

HA! I wish it was possible but no it can't be done.

Well by using bubbleupnp I can. However like I said when songs play they cut out. It used to work fine before

Would like to show me how you're able to connect the n7 to the ps3? i want to try it out and see if I can fix the issue.

Well I use the app called bubbleupnp on the play store. As soon as you launch the app it acts as a media server. My ps3 and my xperia s and my laptop can connect to the n7. And stream view pics and music

Besides BubbleUPnP I've used UPnPlay, iMediaShare and Air Play to stream movies to the PS3.

Thanks. I'm gonna try that when i get home.

The player has a mirroring option. It works with other phones. But as it's trying to connect to mine it causes the phone to reset.

If your using Mirror Link, there limited to certain phones.
What exactly are you trying to do?
You can always use Chromecast to mirror or cast..

Mirror it to watch a movie. Oh well. Guess I'll try something else. Thanks for the help!

Download Showbox and use Chromecast to watch your movies.
Not sure how your Blu-ray communicates with your phone.
