Tv out via usb port on tvs?

I realized some tvs have a usb port for tv out on some cameras and portable media players. My question is would it be possible to use the usb cable to project an image at least on a tv?

There are reports that the Vibrant is compatible with a microUSB to HDMI Out cable.
I can only hope it looks better then the headphone video out. I tried it and it really looks like trash.

[Q] A500 Hdmi to Dvi

Has anyone gotten the tablet to output using a Dvi to HDMI converter? Is there a way to controllvthe output settings on this device because it seems as if its outputting HD at a different resolution then what's my monitor supports. I get a signal with no video.

The Iconia Tab A500 currently supports output resolutions of up to 720P through the HDMI port. Support for 1080P resolution videos will be added in a future software update.
try setting your tv/monitor-graphics card to 720p for now, official 3.1 release should enable 1080p....hopefully. 720p still looks quite good on my sony.

[Q] Possible to output picture to TV?

Probably a noob question, but i dont know so i thought id ask.
Do we have any way at all to output the Xperia Play picture to a TV yet?
Would be great to plug it into the TV while i am in bed and control iplayer and youtube and play some games etc.
the only 2 things that ive seen is
1. theres a new prototype play with a hdmi out on it and there is a video on youtube of someone using it.
2. ive seen a S.E docking station thats coming out that has a hdmi output
on it but its unclear if this adds hdmi to our plays, or just for the new plays that have hdmi out on already?

That 'prototype' is for development use only.
Someone said he used a usb to hdmi adapter but then he was uncontactable...

Man, better not to answer if you don't know something well. That can confuse a lot of people.
1- The prototype you talk about it's just the device that the developers buy to make games for the Xperia Play and test them.
2- The LiveDock Multimedia Station (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImnhFtmyHNA) uses the USB port of some Xperia phones and outputs the image through the HDMI output that the dock has. The bad new is that the Xperia Play is not one of the compatible phones, although it has USB port.
And if there would be that new Xperia Play with HDMI output, why the heck would you need this dock if the mobile already would have HDMI output???
Someone said you can use a micro
Hdmi cable to connect it why not try? ;P

I have a feeling they may release a USB - HDMI adapter for the Xperia Play but will also need software on the phone like Bravia Sync to allow for the phone display to be pushed to HDTV.

That will be awesome (if SE decide to go with this idea).
Where do I have to sign to get one ?
I just want to be able to connect my first smartphone (the PLAY) with my 55" LED screen ... even my former, former, former dumb phone (Samsung D900) was capable of it... after that the replacements a Samsung F480 and a Samsung S8000 (the famous "Jet") weren't able.
anyway... I'm loving the Play... just hope SE don't leave us unsupported.

Surface RT - Very Poor Quality HDMI Connection

I would like to know if someone else gad problems with poor video quality using HDMI on Surface RT
I'm using a adaptor dongle with a conventional HDMI Cable. The cable is a hight quality one, but can't say about the adaptor.
I've bought the adaptor to use Surface RT on my TV, but I'm so frustrated with the poor graphic quality.
Any idea about what is happing ? Tips ? is it normal ?? Any other experience with it ?
Thanks,
Carlos
I'm not familiar with the Surface RT but IIRC it uses a regular microHDMI port so any microHDMI to full size HDMI should work fine. What is this converter you are talking about? If you are converting HDMI to a lower grade video signal like composite then the picture quality is going to suffer since composite is only 480i. Your picture should be fine if you connect HDMI directly to the TV.

N10 HDMI resolutions

Hey, wondering if anyone else is getting varied resolutions when using a micro HDMI -> HDMI cable into a TV. We have a 37" plasma 1080 capable but I only get 480 out of, and our 42" LCD only gets 720.
Both are default numbers as I haven't been able to find anyway to adjust them. Have tried stock video player, MX player and YouTube through all to no avail.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd be most appreciative.
Cheers

You may want to check your hdmi cable. If you have a "standard hdmi cable" , and it supports up to 1080i/720p. The type 2 "high speed data hdmi cable" supports 1080p, 3d and high color. Your tv's and tablet may support it, but you may be using a standard hdmi cable.

I haven't looked, does the n10 support 1080i?... I notice most devices and movies I look at only support "p" areas (480p, 720p and 1080p) relevant since I plan to buy a big screen LED tv with my tax return...
Cheers for the heads up, I've read in other forums that the n10 downscales to 1080, but haven't seen it first hand.
There's a few variables at play, I'll get some specs from the TV's, I haven't seen any different type of cables on eBay else I'd have got the better one (i spent $15 on this one).

I purchased a $10 off of Amazon. Supposedly a HS cable. Real thick and almost 6 feet long.. Nice, but the TV I had planned to use it on, it did not output sound! 2 other sets, and the sou d works fine. I read here that it is a cable/tv combination problem.. Plug in another hdmi and the sound will work fine. Haven't tried it since I hooked it into the stereo via blue tooth.
I am planning to buy a small converter attachment,(pigtail cable or plug) that way I can use the hs hdmi cables I already have on the tv. I am still not convinced that it isn't a problem with android, but we'll see.
