HDMI out support 1080p? - G Tablet General

Looking to buy one.. But only if the output can support 1080p, as I'd primarily use this for Blu-ray movies & streaming.
Also.. Are there any ICS ROMs in progress? Thanks.

ICS is in development over on [the forum that can't be named here for some reason] along with a new .39 kernel that was built from scratch by dedicated developers. I'm using the pre-alpha right now actually. It's only weeks away from completion. And yes you can buy a 30$ dock or HDMI cable.

You can mention it, just can't link. It's Slatedroid by the way.

I have Malata dock, some videos desync over hdmi. It happens on froyo, gb, and hc. It outputs the same resolution as the g tablet.

Well i have a dock and I have noticed with the G Tablet if you are using a cheap HDMI cord your picture will be fuzzy/blurry, screen size (resolution) will be heavily reduced, quality HD videos do not look that appealing. Once I switched to a nice quality cable all my issues went away. Very pleased with my dock + G Tablet!

TF101 as a citrix thin client

I have gotten a TF101 to test it out as a supplementary mobile client.
We are running Citrix and I have a desktop published throug Citrix Receiver. I have found keyboard and mouse that works with this wonderful machine but I want to have an external display also.
But I find the HDMI support quite bad. The content fills more than the TV Screen and I cannot change the screen resolution. I would like to have a larger screen resolution on the external display but cannot find any way to do this.
I have a LG Optimus 3D phone and on that I can adjust a lot of options on the HDMI port so it should be possible.
One snag: I am testing out this to be used in large scale for hundreds and eventually thousands of users so this needs to be working on completely stock operating system.
Maybe the Asus HDMI to VGA Adaptor is something to think about?

Ok. I got this one and it almost fills my need. I need to get a higher screen resolution on the external display. 1280x720 is way to small for a permanent workstation. At least with the tools I use.
Maybe I just have to wait for ICS to get this working?
Are you trying HDMI on a TV or a monitor? If a TV does it look washed out and a little zoomed in? TV's have some over scan options that really mess with the signal from PCs. Look around the menu options of the TV and see if you can turn it off, alot of em can't tho. Just google HDMI PC overscan and you'll get a better picutre of what I'm talking about.
For res I don't think it can do better than 720 and I've never seen any options for it. I'd call up Asus if your going to be making a decision that could mean eventually thousands of sales for them.
Also don't forget that they said they're launching the Windows 8 Transformer this year. That should suit your needs beautifully.
How are you accessing your Citrix Desktop? Using the Receiver? Or is there another app specifically for Citrix Desktop access?
EDIT: Never mind, the VDI i was trying to access was taken down recently by the systems team. Do'h. Time to build a server.
Me personally I've been using the citrix beta app, seems to work better.

I tried with the VGA adapter on my 22" samsung syncmaster and the desktop filled the screen perfectly. Via HDMI to my 42 inch HDTV I got overscan problems.
It is though the monitor I need to use to acheive my goal of using it as a citrix thin client. I hope we can manipulate the HDMI output more in ICS. It would be nice to use the monitor's native resolution (1680x1050).

Agreed. It has more options and seems more stable. Go figure.
The TF101 does not support greater than 720p output for mirroring. No word from Asus if they will ever bump it up to 1080p capability, since the Tegra 2 already struggles with 1080p video playback. You should wait for the TF700T for full 1080p output.

Actually 1080p is not what I need. 1280 is more than enough horisontal resolution, but 720 vertical is too little. If it could output 1280x1024 on an external monitor I'd be very happy.
What I say is that there should be an alternative to mirroring on the HDMI port. With the dock and usb ports the interal screen could be switched off and a resolution of choice be shown on the HDMI-connected display.

Hi, HDIM Feature works fine with Team EOS Builds, but in 720p that is the max resolution on Xoom remembering that you need the cable Hdmi X Mini Hdmi, and I recommend the original one from motorola that connect better without been lose.
I use it to watch Netflix it awesome

One S video output resolution

Anyone who's got the phone yet tested if the One S outputs 720p through HDMI?
It's basically the only thing I can't find, I did however find that the One X does, but it has got a 720p screen itself.

Hello,
I have connected the one S to my sony HD TV.
the result is a bit disappointing for two reasons:
quality is not so good
latency for example when slide photos is high
I'm using a MHL cable from PNY:
PNY Adaptateur MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) vers HDMI®
supposed to be compatible up to 1080p.
I didn't check yet the format resulting from TV point of view. I will try to find that and tell you.
For photos on TV, the Sony and HTC integrated DLNA is far better but not working all the time(seems that the TV is not visible as DLNA client all the time)
Bonus question: Is there a difference from using an MHL-adapter og the wireless dlna thingy?
Probably more lag with the wireless. Its not the best i've used it on 1080p and 720p, I think its outputting the native resolution of the phone.
Anyone got some new inputs? Thank you

I am looking forward to getting a bluetooth keyboard&mouse combo and an MHL cable.
I am surprised that it doesn't do 1080p, I thought that was native to ICS and that the GPU/CPU is the same as the One X

Yeah I thought it could do that too, and the reports of lag when outputting is kinda strange. It should be fast enough at half of full hd..
I have tested again MHL after upgrading to 2.21. Now scrolling in the gallery is smooth and videos are read in full 1080p(recognized by the tv).
I even have tested games, it's awesome!

Problems with netflix and MHL adapter

So I recently bought an S3, along with a samsung MHL HDMI adapter. One of my intended uses for the phone was to watch netflix on my TV, since my laptop broke a few weeks ago.
Anyways, the MHL adapter seems to work great for everything.. EXCEPT netflix. Videos are horizontally letterboxed, looks like a square aspect ratio. And more importantly, subtitles do not show up. I watch a lot of foreign films so this is a deal-breaker. On the phone itself, everything looks perfect, widescreen and with subtitles, but somehow the MHL adapter messes everything up on the way to the TV.
I tried googling and I only found one solution, to disable hardware overlay in developer settings, but that didn't work for me.
Also, the video doesn't look very good at all, both the resolution and compression quality looks pretty ****. Is netflix not streaming in HD on android?
Does anyone know any fixes for these problems?

[Q] Why does my XT925 not show widescreen when using HDMI

I've had the phone since August and just started to use the HDMI to stream Skysports (Orange swappable) to our TV and it will not display in widescreen all ways square.
edit the picture is cropped to square
I've tried gallery photos (which are stored on SD card not phone).
I have a xperia T and using the MHL cable it displays full screen for stream and gallery on the TV, likewise tried a xperia P which like the Razr has a hdmi port (I'll not call it HD until proven otherwise).
I've also tried different browsers Chrome, Boat, Opera and Firefox with same result (Orange swappable runs via a browser)
To me this not a HD phone, I've not found a app to output HD full widescreen. Currently on stock JB 98.26002.XT925.Orange.en.GB
Does any one have similar experience or solution?
Never mind no need to respond with an answer.
Going to buy the xperia P I loaned it's a better phone as the HD output works, will wait for KK update to see if that fix the HDMI output and if doesn't output widescreen I'll will dispose of to the waste bin.
My first Motorola a Razr I got hot after 3 months from new which I scrapped and looks like this Razr HD will meet the same fate, can't abide bad design/workmanship.
As the Moto X is not available in the UK and the Moto G has not got TV output features I'll probably not bother with another Motorola, looking like it'll be a Sony or Samsung from now on.
