Is it possible to connect a projector on the USB port and show a movie on the big screen?
I know it can be done through HDMI port, but what about USB?

I know it has mini hdmi but is there a way to do composite or component through usb?
Let's say I connect my smartphone's micro USB port to a micro HDMI port of a video handycam, with a MHL cable.
I need to know:
- The pin mapping done by the mhl cable- namely what usb pin is connected to what hdmi pin (I couldn't find on the net).
- How can I capture the audio/video signal output by the camera, with the phone through its micro USB port (I want to write the driver for that).
We suppose the phone doesn't have a dedicated MHL chip (even if it had one, it would be for output from the phone not for input).
Also, I don't want to use Wi-Fi.
Any hint is appreciated.
Thanks.
Hry guys. New to Nvidia Shield. Was womdering if you can use the USB charging \ data cable and plug it into the usb port on the tv. Would this work? And do you need a special app to use it ?
I imagine that unless you are talking about reading some video files on your storage and playing those on the TV, no, it wouldn't work like that.
However, the Shield Portable does have a mini-HDMI port along with its micro-USB port. So you could just plug it into an HDMI port and you would have an instant mirror of your screen. In fact this is how you start up the "Console Mode" where you hook it to your TV and a charger, and you attach a Shield Wifi-Direct controller or a BT controller (or a wired USB controller I guess via a split charge/USB-OTG cable), and you have a nice way to stream your games from GRID, your comp, or native from the Shield to your big-screen TV.
TL;DR - No, wouldn't work. Don't need it though, you have an HDMI out on it.
I want to connect a wired mouse and at the same time connect the phone via HDMI to my TV. I have a working OTG cable and a working slimport cable.
Question is how can I connect both simultaneously. Can the nexus micro usb port support both if I use some sort of a splitter?
What about plug a chromecast into your tv and just screen cast and only plug in the mouse?

I have a broken touch screen and a pattern lock and want to transfer data on an unlocked nexus 5. Need both a display out and a USB mouse to unlock the device and back up data.
If you get a HDMI to a USB type C cord, can you screen mirror to any TV?
