Android video player software with explicit option to control display mode - General Questions and Answers

Hi, I'm trying to find if there's any software for my android tab that has an explicit option to change/set display mode so that I might be able to play videos on my LCD TV using HDMI cable. The stock player named Vortex has this option but doesn't have the ability to render subtitles. Moreover there's no HDMI setting in my tab that enables me to switch complete display to my TV to play games or view image gallery (please refer this previous question of mine to know details of my agony). I looked up the internet and this forum and the closest thing appeared to what i needed was RealHDMI for Droid X and couldn't find anything similar to fit my need, tried my luck with some of the players like MX but came up empty handed. Details of my tablet are as below:
Name: Penta T-Pad IS703C ( T-Pad IS703C With BSNL)
Manufacturer: Pantel
Android: 4.0.3
Kernel: 3.0.8
Build Number: fj_vortex-userdebug 4.0.3 IML74K eng.zjd1.20120413.113558 test-keys
It would be wonderful to know if such software exists and if so the details of the same. Thanks.

Even I am looking for the same. It is very annoying of Penta to have not provided the feature. At least they could have made the Vortex player open source so that some developer could try to find the driver that Vortex uses and thus could have created a general screen sharing app for sending the entire display to HDMI.

If some apps say incompatible on Google play you can try to install them manually.
Search Google for the app APK eg.facebook 1.x.x apk
as for the accelerometer not working that might be a hardware problem. can you still rotate the screen?

You need to download the XML files for the C91 Upgrade.
It's on SlateDroid - I'm still a new user so I can't post links.

This tablet is execellent for the price. The manufacturer is really serious about developments. You can visit their site zenithink.com and download the latest version of ICS designed for Zenithink tablets. They keep updatating all the time.
Zenithink C91
I just bought the Zenithink C51 (The 7 Inch Tab) and it was great except for what you just mentioned. Although it had that problem, I went and got the Zenithink C91(The 10 inch Tab). The 10 inch tab had the same problem. What I believe happened was, the tab didn't originally come with ICS so when they loaded they left out certain files. What you need to do is side load the app or find out what files are missing and load them into the tab. If your tab isn't rooted then you will need to root your tab first and then fix your issue. Hers a link on how to root your tab but pay attention. IT'S FOR ROOTING THIS TAB THATS NOT RUNNING ISC. Hopefully that helps

[Q] Tv On Off

[Q] CS918 / MK888b clone identification

Hi all,
I'm looking for help in identifying the exact hardware of my android TV box. It was sold to me as a CS918, but it has working Bluetooth so I'm told that means its NOT a CS918.
It came with Android 4.2.2 on it, but seems to be handicapped to 720p video and all I can get out of it is stereo audio (on SPDIF). From reading various posts it seems this is a kernel issue, so I am after a custom ROM, but need to know what the hardware is before re-flashing the device.
It came preinstalled with Beyond XBMC and I have also tried official XBMC V13 (Gotham) and found both refuse to configure for anything other than 720p. The confusing thing is that the TV is reporting a 1080p signal on the HDMI.
I have attached (or tried to) an image of the PCB in hope this helps identify the hardware.
In summary, can anyone tell me what ROM will work on this device giving me 1080 and surround sound from it when I run XBMC or a variant?
Thanks

So I have this random android TV box...

I have what's been labeled as a 'Smart TV box'. Its android and runs some software that allows me to watch certain channels and movies which I have to subscribe to.
My subscription has ended and I have a '''useless atm''' (--> potentially useful ) android device. It has some software on it that still works, but I want to mod it, if I can and also root. How do I go about doing this?
Can any of you android people out there help me?
Ask me if you need pictures or something?
If you have a Android TV box you may look into using the Kodi system you will be able to keep watching free TV on it look into it search it. You may look on YouTube

Details Needed...
It would seem to me more details will be required. Rooting methods vary by SoC maker(AmLogic, Rockchip,Etc.) and box model. There is info on the unit's PCB that will be useful to those trying to help.
SoC maker:
PCB maker, info on PCB - model#, revision and date:
Software version: Android 4.2, 5.1,etc:
Specifications - CPU type, amount of RAM, Storage, WiFi module, etc.
Decent quality photos of your device may also be helpful.
Good luck.

Turning Linux based smart TV into Android TV?

I would like to start off by saying I've looked around for a few hours on the internet trying to find something to help me get an answer to this. I've decided to ask the community to shine some light on this for me. Any answers would be grateful and very appreciated.
I have a Hisense 4K 50 Inch TV I bought it from Walmart. The model number is 50H7GB. I've had the tv over a year and it runs a Linux based os called "Opera TV" The current os lacks the most decent apps and the app store has nothing thrilling at all. I was wondering if it is possible to put Android TV os on this Hisense tv somehow? If it can be done, what steps must I take to do so?
