I tried this today but it says hdmi is not supported. Any way to get it working? Will the webtop hack play Sprint TV.
Not to be a nay sayer, but, why worry about Sprint tv when Hulu and ch131 work great over webtop, although ch131 will work fine without the dock.
Still working on getting Hulu to work, without webtop, the modified flash wasn't being recognized correctly, but that is probably a simple fix,
But if u have the dock there is better options and more content then Sprint tv.

Looking for creative ways to get Hulu on my tv.
I am open to ANY suggestion, but to keep it relevant to this section I need to know methods involving either the Vibrant or Android also.
Thanks!
Do you prefer free or paid? There's alot of paid options, but there are free options as well.
Whatever method works... Ha

Do you have like a Blu-Ray player? you know the ones with Netflix etc? Or a PS3/Xbox?
best option and its very easy!! if u have a pc just download playon its a media server. So if u have a wd media player or a wii, 360 or ps3 then log onto the media server on any of those, it supports many other devices too. U can watch netflix or hulu or many many other channels on there.
theres a android app too

very easy and simple and once u get the android app u can watch netflix or hulu from ur playon on ur phone over 3g or wifi. Works great thats how i do it.
wow, I had heard playon, but did NOT realize it was on Android.
Can I then use TV out to my tv, from my vibrant? I mean, it gets wifi.. if the signal is good for the server, seems like that would work. Phone has flash.. hulu work on our phones?
hulu works on some phones but it works on all phones through playon i think. i know i get hulu and netflix very easily.
Alright, sounds like my Vibrant + PlayOn is the way to go.
Any other options that I am missing though?
3 months ago we canceled comcast services and picked up at&t u_verse Internet (tv not in our area yet) and the Roku HD box. Netflix/Amazon/hulu+ and lots more. Our kids use wii's for netflix. It's a switch not having regular tv but we really don't miss it, I prefer it this way.

Hello. Just bought my third HTC phone and I am very happy with it. The 1080P video sounds especially appealing. I saw there was an HDMI adapter which I mentioned to the sales guy and he said that his girlfriend had one(of the phones) and their TV (which has wifi) automatically picked it up. If I am going to take good HD videos it would be great to send them over wifi to my PS3 (preferably) or my computer with a media server on it to watch them easily. I have heard of an app called awesome drop but everything I have seen is getting media ONTO the phone, not off. I know I could just USB to my computer (and maybe even ps3?) but since it can be on my wifi network it would seem there was some way to easily just push the video wirelessly to watch. I know this isn't specific to the Amaze so if you think I will get better answers I can move to a more general Android area. Thanks always XDA.
Also in the same vein is there some app to just directly move any files freely between the phone and my computer (and maybe even ps3?) over wifi? TY

I use iMediaShare Premium to stream videos stored on my device to my XBox 360. I can also stream Youtube and several other services as well. All connect via wifi.
There's a program called PS3 Media Server that is awesome. I haven't yet tried streaming amaze videos, but I will tonight. THis app is very light weight and streams really well. I have yet to have any problems, but I've only streamed some relatively low bandwidth 4:3 video over wireless.
I stream video to my Xbox 360 using an app called Twonky, It's in the Android Market, nice and easy. Let me know if it works for you.

I've been playing around with my HDMI cable that I originally bought for my Droid X... absolutely loving the mirror mode the RAZR has (much better than using realHDMI for the X) YouTube works flawlessly, however the only app I've come across that absolutely will not work is Netflix... you can browse movies, but as soon as you select a movie it will start to load and play like 2 secs of audio through TV then a pop-up notification alerts you that the Netflix server can't be reached(same if on wifi or 3g or 4g).... anyway I was wondering if there is some sort of work around for Netflix to use HDMI out function.... I feel that if I am streaming on my phone it shouldn't matter to Netflix if I want to view it on my TV... is there an app kinda like realHDMI that allows anything you want to use HDMI out?

that's weird, works fine for me on rzrx. Watched just about every episode of soa on my TV via the razr.
I have the AV cables and can get my home screen of my phone on the TV. My question is it possible to get Netflix to go from my phone out to TV?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
unless the netflix app limits that ability. everything should work just fine. although not sure why you would want to with all the other sources we have now days for netflix. google tv, xbox, playstation, etc
Maybe he or she wants to use the TV out cables on a DVD player which uses A/V in? I would love to find out how to enable that capability on my phone since I have a 5" PSone monitor in addition to using Crunchyroll.
I got the Smart Dock and was trying to watch these apps. First they worked but I was having issues with my sound sync. I unplugged it from the computer monitor DVI port and tried it on the TV. Hulu Plus worked. Then I got a forced screen orientation app and was having trouble with the setting and undocked it. I got the home screen on landscape but tried Hulu Plus and it says HDMI output is disabled. Same with NFL Network.
Is there a work around for this? Not that I need the Hulu Plus but I would like to watch the NFL Network that I pocket ordered and have to pay for.
Not sure about hulu, but the nfl app is definitely blocked from using hdmi out.
