Hello
I use the HDMI output on the xoom for playing snes games om the tv. When i connect the Xoom to my 40" sony full hd tv, the desktop gets chopped off on all sides. Why is this?
I can understand that it chopps away the bottom status bar, but i loose some of the sides as well. Is there anyway to adjust the output?
I haven't found a way to reduce the overscan. I've adjusted it a tad on my TV, but nothing had fully removed the overscan. I think it intentionally runs that way.
Same here.
It´s very annoying.
If you have overscan problems, it's your TV, not the Xoom. See if you have a "just scan" option on your TV set, my Samsung does and it produces a 1:1 picture.

So I finally got around to playing with hdmi on the transformer. I must say, I am very disappointed in the quality of the output.
First off, my display (a 50" plasma) is set to 16x9. The picture is chopped about 40-50 pixles on every side. Like the screen is zoomed in larger. What's going on here?
Second issue is that I was able to get streaming video from hulu working, but the quality is not very good. The picture is blocky and choppy. Youtube is the same.
So why is video quality so bad and is there a fix?
Thanks!

Sounds like maybe it's because you are watching low def content on a hdtv?
your overscan settings are wrong.
At my friend's house I stream SC2 matches to his tv with my G2X and an HDMI cable. Is there a way to set my phone up so I can stream video through HDMI while the screen on the phone is turned off? As it stands now Once I turn off the screen the video cuts out.
Same. Thats how it was on stock and CM7. Kinda sucks. Double drainage.
For me I like to play Emulators using a Bluetooth Gamepad. I don't need the screen on when I'm able play like that.
I'm using Samsung's microUSB to HDMI adapter with my Sensation and it works fine but seems like there's no any configuration of hdmi output nowhere. Is there any app to do this or some config files?
There's just one small problem. I have black frame appx. 2cm on 42" TV. It seems like it's made for overscan because when i enable oversan in my tv the image fits perfectly but, obviously, i get cropped resolution then. But, i've noticed one interesting thing: the stock apps like camera output really fullscreen image on the TV without any frame and without any UI elements on TV screen so all the controls go to phone's display and not on the TV. So if there's no way to configure HDMI in sensation yet i have another question: Is there any video player which plays all formats(like MoboPlayer, etc.) which can also handle TV output like stock apps making it really fullscreen without any frame and not just cloning the phone's display to tv?
Thanks.
Im using a micro HDMI to HDMI adapter and a normal HDMI cable tested and used in other devices, but whit my XOOM[4.1.2] The screen don't fill show all my table screen (im not referring to the 80 px that the status bar has, i know that dosen't show) it just appears cropped.
Im testing whit a Philips 32'' 32PFL4505D, the tv dosen't have an option that can help me
I think I saw this over the weekend. For some reason I had to go into the TV settings and have it "auto-detect" again. Then the TV properly scaled the picture to fit on the screen.

Mine is, I have a 1080p 120hz led tv, To do the test i download youtube video planet earth amazing nature scenery in 1080p, When playback using Vplayer sw/mode it show 720p..
Hi guys,
I have a MX III Tv Box, and a really old Toshiba Tv. The Tv only have a VGA input (no HDMI), therefore I'm using a converter from HDMI to VGA.
But I have a problem, when I set the MX III to output in 720p, the TV seems like getting a good resolution (with the edges cut off) but the entire screen is half greenish. When I set the MX III to output in 480p, suddenly there are no issues with colors, but of course the resolution is only 480p.
The only output options I have in MX III are 480p (Good colors, but low resolution), 720p (Greenish, good resolution with edges cut off) and 1080p (Showing nothing, black flickering screen).
When I try to connect my laptop using the HDMI to VGA converter, the Tv works perfectly fine on 720p (I think, it looks HD).
One last important thing to say is that when I connect my laptop, the TV shows "Input XGA", but there is no such setting where I can modify the TV to always stay on XGA setting. When I connect the MX III, when on 480p it says "VGA PC".
Does anyone know if:
1. Upgrading the firmware of the device may help, if so, to which firmware?
2. There is a way to control the output resolutions and settings of the device, other than what there is with the stock version?
3. Any other idea?
I will really appreciate it, I'm desperate
Thanks.
