I currently have a cheap in-dash DVD player that I hate but I need it for my backup camera. My SUV has a spare tire that makes it impossible to clearly see what is behind me, so the camera is necessary for safety. I want to run the A/V input from my camera into my phone.
Is this possible? I'm aware there are usb to HDMI adapters but I'm pretty sure those are limited to video out, not input. I'm willing to spend some money to make this work.
Halp?
i don't know if that is even possible but may i propose a solution: purchase a wifi IP camera (these are cheap), view the ip camera stream using your note.
saw this in amazon == D-Link DCS-930L mydlink-Enabled Wireless-N Network Camera
no need to connect any wires.
What connectors does the camera output? If you can find a USB capture card that takes it as an input and is UVC compatible it should be possible, I know there are a few apps that allow you to view the stream from UVC devices

So just wondering about getting digital audio out from the Gtablet. Is this possible? I have the Squeezebox Player and Squeezebox Commander applications on my tablet and while the sound is OK I was wondering about feeding that audio signal to my home receiver's DAC. Is there a working USB solution? How about taking a HDMI approach and using this monoprice adapter http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10110&cs_id=1011002&p_id=5557&seq=1&format=2 to send the digital signal from the HDMI to my receiver? Anyone have any experience/suggestions?
bumping this. i would like to know also.
Why can't you just connect your HDMI cable directly to your receiver? Is it because you don't have that type of connection on your receiver?
I have tried to get Squeeze Player to work on my TNT-Lite tablet. Everything seems to work except for changing the volume has problems. If you do have this working, can you tell me which image you are using?

I am currently using VEGAn-Tab Ginger Edition. And yes my music receiver/amplifier doesn't have HDMI inputs (in fact it only has either one coax or optical input). I did purchase the HDMI to optical switch but I haven't tried it with the unit stereo set up yet (maybe this weekend ???) as my Logitech Duet is currently plugged into the optical input.
SqueezePlayer coupled with SqueezeCommander are working great for me and I can even control it directly with the Duet remote or PC on my network. As they phase out this device I am going to monitor the pricing and eventually purchase another set as I have another receiver located in the "media room" (basement) that I might occassionally want the ease of the logitech device ... although now that their google tv is allegedly dropping to $99 perhaps that takes a backseat as I have a PC hooked up to that system and I can use that for music.
Hey guys, I've been toying with the possibility of using the gtablet as a car pc. There are a few points to consider in my research.
- HDMI format can handle 8 channels of uncompressed audio. Can the gtablet output 8 channels of audio and have the power to handle processing (EQ, crossover, crossover slopes, time alignment, etc?)
- We would need to find a way to convert the hdmi cable to an analog rca cable. There are several devices that can do it, but none that I can see that can convert more than just 2 channels.
- Can the gtablet hand more than one bluetooth connection? I would like to connect a gps and an obdII device.
- There is a frontend on the android market called andcar, and it looks like it could be usable on the gtablet.
- Another option is to use a usb to rca dac, unfortunately all the ones on the market do not have android drivers to support it.
I would stay away from using the built-in jack on the gtab because, frankly, the audio quality from the jack is just not that good.
Any tips/ideas/suggestions?
What do you think about that?
I already have a old windows bluetooth keyboard that works with android.
I only use computer to surf the webb, write, read. Watch some youtube.
Can bluetooth mouse be used with android? Not that it's necessery, but i'm curious
Yes it can, quite easily in fact. If the bluetooth keyboard and mouse suppor the HID profile, you should be good to go. Also, if you get an MHL adapter and connect it to an HDMI display you can push your screen out to a larger one.
Is this issue already fixed that an activated Bluetooth connection slows down your WiFi? For surfing the tablet may be okay, but for me it won't replace the desktop in the near future.. There are no drivers for special devices, it's way slower and if you try serious work on a tablet... Well, prepare some relaxing tea
Hi All,
I use an SIII to output wirelessly to my Miracast-enabled TV, through Allcast share.
I also have an old laptop, which doesn't have Miracast/WIDI hardware.
I would like to use the SIII as a Miracast transmitter dongle, to output the screen of my laptop to my TV, using the Miracast hardware of the SIII.
So far I have been able to do so by installing the Nomachine NX server on the laptop, the NX client on the SIII, establishing a connection and then activating Allcast.
It all works (audio and video), but it gets a bit laggy and stuttering when I try to stream videos from websites, as the CPU load on the laptop maxes out.
I was wondering if there's any more efficient way to do so, getting rid of some overhead and lag? Either through USB connection or WiFi?
Thanks in advance for any thought
Regards
I am interested in this topic too.
Is there a Wireless Display TRANSMITTER or TRANSCEIVER which can be plugged into the HDMI or USB port of any non-WiDi laptop so that the screen can be mirrored to my Miracast receiver device?
Bit of a weird one for you all, but here goes.
I want to be able to plug production level cameras into a smartphone or tablet, and have them read as the native camera. Looks like Android is capable of accepting a USB UVC source, since apps like CameraFi exist that allow you to plug a webcam into your phone with an OTG cable for recording. Looking around online, it looks like the Magewell USB Capture SDI device will take a camera and treat it as a USB UVC source, like any webcam.
So the hardware makes sense to me, but the last thing to figure out is how to disable the built-in camera on a phone/tablet, and instead have the OS read the external camera as the main/only one. This way, my hope would be that any apps, such as Periscope or Ustream, would automatically work with the external camera. Anyone have any ideas on how to pull that off? Any Android device brand or model will do if you have recommendations.
Thanks!

We have been discussing this at work lately and are very interested as well . We're thinking of creating a virtual android instance on a PC that has no webcam, using a device like the one you mentioned and seeing if we can trick it that way
