Hey guys, has any of you guys trien the HDMI port?
I don't know if it's a software issue, but I have only tried Pandora, and the sound mutes a soon as I connect the TF300 to my TV.
I'll try some other programs later, but I was shacked this happened.
I haven't had any issues with sound when connecting my transformer to the tv...I haven't tried Pandora but netflix, gta3, max payne, and n64oid all work.
It's weird, I have no sound at all, in no app.
But its got solved by its own.
I guess it was the cable that wasn't plugged correctly or the adapter from regular hdmi to micro hdmi.
Pandora, netflix and poweramp working perfectly fine

I had same problem. It is always fixed for me when I just unplug and plug the HDMI back in.

I went to use HDMI output for the first time on the transformer today. I plugged it in, received the notification icon that HDMI was connected and the audio on the TF muted (redirected to the HMDI port), but I see no video or sound on the TV.
I know the cable is ok because it worked with my archos tablet.
The cable is pluggged in all the way and I've tested on two ports.
Any suggestions?

Hi
I also have that kind of behaviour on the TF side its detecting mini HDMI but it didnt show anything on the TV or monitor side.
But I didnt give up I try on several monitor in my office and manage to find 1 and only 1 monitor it works and showing everything properly its DELL 24" monitor
dont give up and keep trying.
So this feature sucks:-(

I have the exact same problem! Do I really have to root and apply a custom rom to get this feature?
i tried today to hook up my hdmi with 1/2 success. I get picture but no sound...
HDMI was fixed for me in one of the past ASUS updates - maybe with Honeycomb 3.2...
My biggest annoyance, however, is the fact that the bottom bar gets cutoff on my TV, so I can't access the back, home, multitask and menu buttons when using my bluetooth keyboard/mouse... kind of a pain.

What you need is custom kernel, not custom rom. The problem is compatibility issue with certain name brand tv's. I highly recommend clemsyn kernel. It's compatible with most tv's out there.

He's right. I had the same problem with hdmi out and solved it with clemsyns kernel.
But then came another problem, video subtitles doesn't show on the tv u.u
I just flashed Clemsyn's latest, Version 22A. Still nothing on my 32" Vizio, and I get glitchy static and half functionality on my Insignia 32" *Best Buy Brand*. And what does work, I don't have the bar on the bottom either Anyone have expirence with Vizio? I duno if it's the TV but from what I have seen Vizio doesn't play nice with any PC type inputs
Hi all, new to these forums and trying to figure out some information on the xoom and its "interesting" HDMI out. With my friend's transformer on mini HDMI out, he is able to output full audio to our receiver without issues. I cannot do the same with this tablet and the micro HDMI to HDMI cable I have. It outputs tinny 2ch audio only.
I also tried it on four other receivers at the local fry's. Same deal... I therefore figured it is either an issue with the cable I bought or the xoom itself. It would be great to get this working for videos and the like, but the real deal is something far greater: playing angry birds in an earth shattering, bass powered 100" home theater slaughter.
Thanks for reading!

Well the quick way to narrow it down wuld be to try his trasnformer with your cable, or your xoom with his cable. My guess is that its probably the cable, cause I'm pretty sure we hooked a xoom up to the conferece room audio at work and it was incredibly loud bass and all...out of the blue, had the whole office wondering what was going on.

was that via HDMI or the 3.5mm jack on the top?
I would but unfortunately the xoom uses micro and the transformer uses mini. I ordered the official Motorola micro HDMI cable since it was $4 from amazon... if that doesn't work it has to be the xoom. Four high end receivers wouldn't give the same result like that. :-\

Please let us know, if it's the cable, ill buy the moto official one, otherwise I'll just continue to be annoyed with it not working.

Not sure if this could be the problem, but I have been unable to play 5.1 encoded videos on the Xoom. Any videos with 5.1 audio play at fast forward speed.

Well I just tried the HDMI cable and same result. Trash audio. I noticed the sub is putting out the tiniest amount of bass if I Max out the sub... but then I switch to the transformer and it absolutely bleeds bass. Its something in the xoom... I'm disappointed.

Hi all,
I had posted a response in the other HDMI thread but think here may make more sense and even help some of you out. I use my Xoom with the Motorola micro HDMI to HDMI cable going from the Xoom straight into my Dell 21.5" HD monitor from the monitor i use the 3.5mm Audio out port straight into my powered JBL sub woofer which is also connected to 4 JBL speakers. I am getting a full and rich sound stage and for some shows or movies i actually need to turn the Bass down i hope this helps some of you figure out what can or can't be done using a HDMI cable and especially the Motorola cable which whilst it may not be the cheapest option at least for me is giving great results.

Yes... I have used that as well. It does work, but that does not excuse Motorola from making the HDMI work as it should. I don't always have a 3.5mm Jack to plug into. :-\

@what9000
Sorry I'm a little confused by your post as surely the point is the Motorola micro HDMI to HDMI cable is working as it should as I'm not plugging the 3.5m jack into the Xoom but my monitor so if the Moto cable wasn't carrying the Bass the monitor out wouldn't and couldn't out put it. I thought what others where saying was that they were finding thier HDMI cables were not carrying the bass or maybe I have misunderstood that as the point as many also said they are not using the more expensive Motorola cable was that may be the cause. I realize in theory any HDMI cable should work but real life isn't always that simple.
Marc
Neither HDMI cable type nor manufacturer will make a difference in the number of audio channels played nor resolution of the video output of our Xoom.
If you're only getting two channel sound, then that's all the Xoom is outputting, which makes sense as there's only two channels in our audio system IIRC.
I basically isolated it down to the xoom. Four receivers, two cables and same result. The only thing that didn't change was the xoom. This is a bit underwhelming...

You have to run audio out via 3.5mm jack to get good sound. You can run the hdmi to a dock with a audio out then plug some speakers into the dock and it will sound great, but not straight through the hdmi.

So I've had my Transformer since May and all of a sudden it started playing up and now the screen will no longer display anything ive hooked it up to my tv via hdmi and everything is working fine, so does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
There are no settings for the HDMI connectivity. Be sure that its not an issue with your HDMI cable or TV itself. Maybe try another cable. If no luck there I would do a full wipe and flash the latest firmware.

No... he's saying the screen on the device doesnt work, but he can tell the tablet itself still does because he can hook it up to the tv with no problem...
To OP... im sorry i have no idea

Maybe the internal ribbon cable popped out? Did you drop it hard recently? Have you seen weird artifacts on the screen recently that might have been indicative of the cable becoming loose?
Video looks great, but there is no audio. How come? I am playing it through the stock Google media player.
Use mx player or bs player lite, it might be an codec issue.

Have you tried rebooting your tab, TV, and re-seating the cable on both ends? I've had to do this before to get audio to work.
So it doesn't work going through my audio receiver, but works fine hooked directly to the TV.
I had this problem. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and all was well. Don't know why duo's.

Hey tuffluck,
Just wanted to say I also had this issue with mine. I have stock tf300t on .30 and a LG tv hooked to my Sony 5.1 Home Theater System. It doesnt play through the reciever if the video is not 5.1 encoded. It only plays through tv in stereo. The only fix i have found for me is to either set the reciever to regular stereo not 5.1, or on my Sony system it has a 3.5mm aux in jack on the front and if plugged in to the tf's audio jack it will play through reciever fine. Granted it defeats the purpose of HDMI handling audio and video but its a workaround.
Just received the one for the S3 today. hooked it up, got good video and sound from my Sony Bravia TV. One problem, the video refreshes or goes blank every few seconds on the TV. What can be causing this (Bluetooth on ?). I searched the forums with no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

I know when i tried my friends MHL with an adapter for the 11 to 5pin configuration it was constantly refreshing when switching screens or orientation. I wonder if some of these S3's have issues and we dont find out unless we try out the MHL.
I had the same problem, I had the official Galaxy S2 MHL adapter with the 5 > 11pin adapter that was released by Samsung.
Same thing, the screen would go black every few seconds and I would lose sound. I contacted the seller of the mhl adapter and he send a new one but I still had the same problem, so I ended up returning both adapters until I can get a stable adapter =\ I don't know why but i would love to know as well why this is happening. I also have a sony tv.
This is the adaptor I am using:

I play Blue-Ray rips that are ripped at super high quality from my phone with no problems whatever.

But is that only once you have it running you dont touch the phone again? When i was using the MHL adapter it was to play a game and every time the screen changed, ie.. from menu to gameplay, it would flash and lose sound as the above poster said. May be an issue with the 11>5 pin adapter not sure.

Well, I have never played a game thru HDMI but I do get calls/texts etc which interrupt the movie and it always starts right up again with no problem. It also works perfectly to play MP3's & video thru my killer car stereo/video system that is hooked up thru an HDMI scaler.
I will try a game later when I get out of work & see how that works.

Hook everything up then reboot in that order out you have this issue.

Hi guys. I'm kind of interested in this...will any generic USB -> HDMI adapter work on our phones, or does it have to be a special Samsung one?
Generic adapters?
Anyone try one of these adapters yet?
