I have few HD movies of resolution 720p stored on my neo v (unrooted)
Now what i have observed is that HDMI output does not seem like real or close to being HD video...I dont know why is it like that ? because the same video looks too good when i watch on laptop which unfortunately dont have hdmi output..
Is it because smartphones arent intended to output the real HD quality on HDTV..or is it that it will take few tweaks or few apps which will make it more like HD..
Contents i use are genuine HD of 720p files over the internet..
Players which i use on my xperia neo v is mx video player as well as power dvd 4.xx(latest version)
Is there any other player which will make some difference when i watch HD videos through HDMI cable..
And yes my tv is full HD so it does have the capability to output all real HD stuffs upto 1080p
I would be glad with the help...thank you !!
Roooting the phone is not a solution for me...!!
The phone puts out its own maximum resolution via the hdmi cable. That means 480x854.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I really dont buy on this...as my tv shows that the output is 720p...and there is nowhere being written over the internet that it shows its own resolution...
Another reason why i dont think is because i do watch HD 720p movies..and there is nowhere screen being cut off on my HDTV...if it was showing on mobile resolution as the output is being recognised as 720p on my HDTV..!!
Thanks though hoping for more replies..with any help..!!

yes we can see that it is upscaled..but what about 720p mp4 videos..are they upscaled too ? or is it HD output i.e. 720p
Read the default prop it tells you fps HDMI output
Also mod it from there
You may be lucky

Why don't you just use your usb cable for watching movies? Does you TV support USB flash drives? Set your phone to MSC mode, and connect it the TV.

yes my tv supports USB drives..it works pretty well with pendrives on my HDTV..however it cannot play any HD files through USB on my HDTV..only divx files supported..
After being suggested by you i set my phone to MSC mode and connected but TV fails to recognise any USB device being connected
So how to overcome that..my phone is non-root does that have anything to do with it..?

My phone connects fine to the tv in MSC mode. Haven't tried movies, but browsing pictures works good. Is it a fairly new or an old TV?

yes you can say that if not much its been 2years old..belongs to LG LH60 series jazz theatre 32'
Picture on HDMI device must be same as on phone display (here is no windowsXP with super videochip with multidisplay support), therefore picture on FullHDTV is scaled 854x480

I can understand for rest of the stuffs on mobile but what about 720p mp4 videos are they upscaled too ?
Why does they advertise HD then ?
offtopic-Does samsung galaxy S2 and upcoming xperia S who have the capablility to output 1080p stuff through HDMI..is nothing but upscaling ?
Hi all!
I was wondering the way to change the hdmi output resolution of my neo v device, and looking for the xda forums and the internet. Also, i was looking for the way to turn off the screen without the tv turn off too, because i have a USB OTG cable and a mouse, and i think that is a stupid thing getting turned on both screens.
In xda forums i only found about the matter for the Atrix 4G ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501414 )
In the internet, i have found this, for the Pov/viewpad10S: ( http://www.grupoandroid.com/topic/21153-configuracion-salida-hdmi-povviewpad10s/ ). As you can see, is in spanish, and i try to translate it:
--------------------------------------------------------
The HDM output of POV Tegra, Viewpad 10s y Advent Vega is configurable, but not easily, it don't have a interface to do it. The olny way I know is through terminal or Gscript. These are the commands to change the resolution:
First su
setprop persist.tegra.dpy5.mode.width #
setprop persist.tegra.dpy5.mode.height #
Where # is the size in pixels. The first is the weight, and the second is the height. Once done this reboot. The default settings are 1920x1080.
You can configure too if we want to see it only through the HDMI output, only in the tablet or in both. We make it with this command. First it's needed to do su to have root too.
Only tablet
/system/bin/nvdmmultidisplay --lcd
Only HDMI
/system/bin/nvdmmultidisplay --hdmi
Tablet and HDMI working together
/system/bin/nvdmmultidisplay --both
--------------------------------------------------------
With my negative knowledge of programming, i understand that neo v have the first by default, and the second is a way to turn off the phone screen, when a tv is plugged in.
¿It can be done in this phone for some way?
I expect that my bad english will not be a problem. Greetings.
Is there a way to set the resolution of the HDMI? I am trying to connect to a 24 inch monitor and it's running at 1280x800 (native resolution I assume). Is there a way I can tell it to run at 1080p?
I tried mine thru my TV last night for the time. I could only get my tv to register it at 720p. I also am wondering if anybody else noticed a tiny delay from touchpad screen to tv. It's enough for me so that I can't play games properly. I thought I had read that people were playing games no problem though.... anybodies experience would be greatly appreciated.

Sure, play 1080p content. There's no magic upscale to 1080 for lower resolution content, including the OS.
That makes sense.
Is there a way to program an app to specify it has 1080p content? My goal is for me to be able to RDP (using iTap at the moment) into a server of mine and have that displayed with 1080p resolution.
Ok so love the s4. I have purchased the white media dock with 3 usb ports and Hdmi out. I have everything going but notice the screen resolution or dimesions dont fit right. I already checked my tv formats and nothing. So, anyone know a fix?
I have the same problem and not found a solution so far. I don't have a full-HD capable monitor or TV. On my 720P (think it is, I'm sure it's not full-HD) TV the picture is sharp but flickers all the time. When I connect it to my 20inch TFT I only get 640x480.
I'm pretty sure it's my hardware but I'm kind of disappointed that Samung does not offer any options to set the resolution manually not every TV or monitor allows to select the resolution manually. My last phone was a Motorola Razr and I could set the resolution and had about 5 or 6 different options to select from. I suppose there is no way to change this without root.
Maybe Samsung will change this in a future release. One of the reasons I bought the multimedia dock was to connect it to beamers or a lower resolution TV.
I did not want to necropost in this thread, so I'm doing a new one. I was thinking about using this media player as a Kodi based audio jukebox so I've bought an DVI->HDMI cable. But when I use it to hook up the Mele to a 19" TFT, I'm not getting any signal. It's not the cable cause this combination works fine on a WDTV (that won't ever run Kodi). So how can I change the resolution on Android-Version 4.2.2 that's installed on the device? Or could I upgrade to another Android version? If not, would installing Sunxi (i.e. Debian with XBMC) work? Thx!
I could not do this on more than one kernel
I just bought the official Smasung usbc-hdmi adapter for use with my Galaxy Note 8. I am looking for a way to set the output resolution since it goes to max by default and since my TV is 4k and i get 25 with this adapter (hdmi restriction via usb due to rights) i am looking to set the resolution to something lower. I would also appreciate a setting where picture is only shown through my TV and does not play on my mobile as well. Its distracting and a waste of energy as well
