Does anyone have any experience using it yet? I'm curious as to how high of a bitrate 1080p files it can process.

The HDMI Out is really cool. I can play Flash with Skyfire browser or the Youtube app on my 42" LCD tv. Wait till I try Angry Birds. Too bad Folio can't output Full HD.
If you start an 1080p movie it is still 1024*600? Or switches the resolution?
No HD resolution at the moment but I read someone is trying to hack the tegra driver to enable higher resolutions

HDMI on ICS
Hi I'm very pleased with finally running ICS on my folio and for the first time mkv files are playing as they should thanks to MX Video Player and this great rom:

But I cannot get the Hdmi to work and I can't find any settings for it, do you have to download something to make it work or how do I enable hdmi output?
Thanks

[Q] Micro-USB to HDMI?

This is a question, that is very important for me.
...
You see, this SGSII phone thing'y is HOT as HELL. It is everything I want in a phone... BUT STOP...
...
NO HDMI out?
...
The original SGS has one and I really don't understand why they took that away from the SGSII.
...
I heard that there is a way to get HDMI mirroring with a software and a micro-USB to HDMI cable! Is that purely a software question or must there be a hardware thing to?
...
Please... respond to this, this is very important.
An MHL hardware connection is needed (look up MHL in wikipedia), fortunately in the official Samsung specs from the press release it says that it has MHL. A video from MWC from someone representing the MHL consortium also says the SGS2 will be the first device supporting MHL.
I'll feel better once I see someone demo it, but Samsung have officially announced MHL capability for the SGS2.

You think Mobile High-definition Link??
Yes... I want to see a demo to. It would be nice to have this mirroring capability.
Something does confuse me about MHL, if you have a TV which isn't MHL compatible and you don't want or don't have the adapter, can you use a microUSB-to-HDMI cable and just not have it charge at the same time?
doh...

Thanks, but I've seen that video and it doesn't say if you can or can't use it without the adapter

It says you can use it without the adapter, but your device won't be charged.

My friend you can use with any HDTV but you dont have charge of your battery device except if you buy an adapter MHL to charge and transmit signal on the same time. But how last your battery can provide of energy?
In my Xperience In my IPad I see 3 Movies via Wireless Apple TV and my battery show 30 % remain. In the case of SGSII at least You have enough power to see a movie with Screen turned Off (SGSII)
!?
Are there any news about a mirroring capability on the SGS II?
...
I've been searching the net for some confirmation, that there is going to be a possibility playing games on the SGS II connected to a flat screen TV, but couldn't find anything to confirm that!
...
Are there any news???
surely if this was possible, it would have been all over the exhibitions and videos of it would exist?

Or the SW used for demo phones didn't have the mirroring properly implemented yet and the option was not included in menus.
EDIT:
I have not seen any demos where SGS2 is connected to a TV via MHL/HDMI.
Is there any previews or videos where they use that ?
No videos yet, the question of whether mirroring is on offer remans in the air.
!
Funny... cuz... The first SGS had mirroring, if this one has it not, than it is a kind a regress!
...
Sorry 4 my English.
Yep, I'd be very disappointed if this can't do mirroring, I love using it with my SGSI and would find it hard to part with (use my SGSI on the tele with BT keyboard and mouse, excellent experience, only problem is only SD-out).

HDMI output - possible to increase pixel density?

Hi there,
I'm looking for the cheapest Android phone with HDMI output I can. It seems to be the Neo, but I hear bad things about the output only being at about 480p and looking poor when upscaled on TV.
Is it possible to increase this with a custom ROM?
If not, can anyone recommend a similarly cheap phone that outputs at 720p?
Hoping to use phone for UPnP with my TV.

The output is in 720p (1280x720), not 480p.

HDMI works only on stock ROMs, as Sony didn't release the HDMI source code for devs
Hope I helped!

Did a bit more digging apparently it's upscaled from 854x480...
Hey buddy, you can get an Xperia P
It's a medium-range phone like Neo, has Dual Core processor and HDMI output
It's not the cheapest thing out there, but it's not as expensive as a SGS3 or a Xperia S and has some decent hardware.

I would like to view my videos off my s3 to my tv and basically mirror my phone screen.
I dont have a wireless tv and have been told to buy a MHL HDMI HDTV Adapter, do I need any applications to go with this to mirror my screen?

You won't need any special apps, it should just pop up straight away

Pixel Video-in options

Hello guys,
Does anyone know here if it is possible to send video through the USB-C on the Pixel? Preferably with HDMI
I know it's a weird request but this feature would really help me in creating an app I'm thinking about.

Input video to the Pixel in 1080p 60fps
I know output is possible for basically any device.

Probably does not work too well, judging from the videos.
Anyone know if the USB-C on the Pixel can receive HDMI-IN?
Pixel doesn't support HDMI out, so I don't imagine the reverse would be possible.
