Thing is I have an old TV with a DVI connection - I have put an HDMI Convertor on it and it woks fine with my laptop - so with a laptop I output the video via the HDMI cable to the television and stick an audio cable in the headphone socket and get the sound through my hifi.
Someone tried it for me just using a HDMI to HDMI and no sound came from the headphone jack however I wondered if because mine was not "true" HDMI it might work?
Will an android tablet do this?

Sounds like you need a receiver bra. Definitely a must for every projector owner for this very reason.
Is their any way to get the mhl adaptor working with a component cable rather than HDMI? I have tried with an HDMI to component cable but this does not trigger the Sensation to turn on TV Output, only the HDMI cable triggers the TV output. Reason being that not all TV's have HDMI and i have a great idea to rig up the phone to my car stereo screen so i can view google maps, rather than balance my phone on the dash. Perhaps a hack exists to manually turn on TV Output?
Perhaps a way to manually turn on the TV out on the phone would force it to work?
No, HDMI = digital, component = analog, so you'll need another converter box after the mhl that not only converts digital to analog, but can seperate the signal into a component type output.

I just made this discovery - I bought a samsung dock when I got my 7+ thinking it was the hdmi dock, sadly I didn't read the description properly, as it was desktop dock ( charging and audio out only ) so ended up also buying the hdmi adapter. By connecting the adapter to the dock, it still outputs video via hdmi with the device docked, but can still output audio via the 2.5 audio jack, that makes it much more versatile, ie video out via hdmi-dvi to pc monitor / dvi only tv such as older plasma and audio out to a seperate a/v receiver etc. This could be useful for anyone who hasn't got up to date tech.
I cannot get the HDMI output to TV to look anything like the tablet.
I get about a third of the screen, repeated 3X (vertically) on the TV.
I have tried various cables, all have the same problem. My Blu-Ray DVD player connects with HDMI, and works perfectly.
Is the HDMI port MHL, and would I need a MHL - HDMI adaptor for the output to look correct?
If so, what one do you recommend?
Thanks
Terry
Its normal hdmi not mhl, it should work fine for your tv, make sure you have an official asus rom and tv input is set to pc
So,
what should I buy to have all share working with both my LED TV in the bedroom (a normal 26" LED tv with no USB port and only HDMI inputs) and with my Marantz receiver (where i have HDMI input)?

just the allshare cast dongle, your phone connects to it by wifiDirect and the dongle connects to you monitor HDMI port providing Audio and Video. Dont know where your receiver is going to fit though, you may have to use the analog outputs on your tv and send them into the Marantz phono ports. Unless your TV has a spdif, you might find that your tv had a digital audio bypass which sends audio coming in via the HDMI port out of the SPDIF/DIGI port and so then on into your receiver that way.

Maybe if it' a current top of the line receiver with multiple hdmi inputs, you would connect the tab to the receiver then receiver to monitor.
This way you can attach multiple hdmi sources e.g. bluray to the receiver and use the receiver to select which source you want to output.
Does that make sense?

I was thinking that might work but i've never tried a HDMI passthrough on a device like that, i've always gone straight into the TV. Worth a try.
