I wanted to play Android games and watch some videos on my tv, i have a galaxy s2 but i don't have the HDMI cable, so my idea was to stream the screen to my pc and then connect him to the tv screen. i know there are some ways through vnc and stuff, but i wanted to get full screen like with the hdmi cable, is it possible to do that throught vnc alternatives or is there a better way so i can get my android fullscreen on my tv?

i just set up a netflix account. i'm wondering how i can get movies on my phone and have them play on my tv? is this possible??? i plug it into the usb port on my tv and it doesn't show up. tried it into my bluray player also, still didn't show. switched the usb to disk mode, still nothing. any help would be great. thanks!
nevermind, just realized the usb isn't actually any kind of video output so its not possible unless i have a wifi gaming console or something. close thread if need be... thanks.
check the applications on your blu-ray player, it's possible that the unit itself can access your neftlix instant queue
As ricky states some blu-ray players have in there menu netflix installed. If the blu-ray player has built in wifi adapter connect to your wireless router and you are ready to go. If the player is wifi ready but no adapter you can get ethernet wireless adapter and use your PC to configure to connect to your router. Then plug into USB port on blu-ray player and you can stream Netflix with the player menu by selecting Netflix. Most of the newer blu-ray players have this capability.

Hi there, Im just wondering if there is way to watch a video with hdmi using mxplayer, or stock player through hdmi and use the tablet to browse or whatever at the same time?
when i plug the hdmi in, the screen goes black, which is fine, but im wondering if it can be used a a second monitor as it was.. so play a game and video (one on tv, one on tablet,
i saw something like that on the chameleon
like this?
I know that a tablet is best used via the touch screen, however I intend to connect my Android Tablet to the TV to watch movies and TV shows from the comfort of the sofa.
I've just bought a wireless mouse which works with my Tablet, that is until I want to watch movies or TV shows.
While sat on the sofa, several meters from the TV and Tablet I can control the Tablet with my wireless mouse. No great shakes there but my problems start when I want to watch movies or TV shows. If I watch anything that I captured with my camera or Tablet I can control the aps by bringing up menus so that I can press pause, play fast forward or rewind.
However when I want to watch a movie or TV show I can not find a way to bring up a menu so that I can select pause, play forward or rewind. The only option I get is that when I right click I am kicked out of the movie/TV show and back to the general menu of all my available movies and TV shows.
Anybody know why I can access playback menus for home produced video but I can't with movies or TV shows?

Anybody know how to remotely control an android tablet while it is connected to a TV?
I also have an android phone, if this can be used as well instead of the wireless mouse.
Cheers
Maybe someone have the same problem. I connect my sg3 with MHL adapter with TV, but the view on TV its ugly, resolution is very low, on the phone video looks good, but on the tv its ugly. I try videos from phone, try play HD movie from plex media server in my pc, but i got the same problem.
I have an old Samsung LCD TV, only shows green screen when connected through the MHL cable. At first I thought it was the cable problem, but later I tried on the other TV, no issue.
Hi !
A little backgound :
I have a Samsung SmartTV UE40 Series 6 which has DNLA and Samsung's AllShare.
I also have my Samsung Galaxy S3 (Internation, i9300, rooted and unlocked).
Both my laptop and desktop computers find my tv and can stream video and music to the TV (DLNA), no problem.
With my GS3, when in Galery or movie player I can "send" the picture/music/video to the TV, but when I launch AllShare Play the Phone doesn't fin d my TV. Same thing with allShare Control : no way to detect the TV. And, obviously, when I try to find the TV with AllShare Cast, same thing: nothing at all.
Has anybody any idea about what could be going on ?
Thanks a lot.
