hi,
I have a laptop (Fujitsu lifebook ah530 gfx) wich has an hdmi port. I also have an archos 80 g9 tablet with a mini hdmi port. Recently I bought a minihdmi to hdmi cable and everything works fine when I connect the tablet to my tv screen. However it would be really nice if I could connect the tablet to my laptop's screen. I tried to just plugin the cables but nothing happpened. So I wonder is there any way to configure the laptop's monitor to show the tablet's screen through hdmi?

No. Laptop/PC HDMI is output only.

Hi Gurus,
1 Question, I have seen many post on HDMI cables to plus & it works but I have a question on RCA cables.
I understand that those ebay & amazon selling Galaxy tab P1000 RCA cable will not work, so I have thought about this & in case someone have tried,
If i get a Samsung Galaxy Tab USB Adapter
(SAMSUNG TO FEMALE USB ADAPTER CONNECTOR GALAXY TAB ) & connect to
3-RCA to USB ADAPTER which amounts is <$10 USD
Can this work on the TV if connected.
I 'll be cool if it works, we can play movies & stuffs...
thanks!
150 viewers & 0 takers? well, i have ordered the RCA cable..once arrived..we can tell...
No it absolutely won't work. RCA is analog SD video. USB is digital data. The cables are designed for very peculiar equipment that has the ability to output video that way, not generic USB equipment. Heck, not even normal USB video cards work on Android, and this isn't even that.
have got the RCA cable for galaxy P1000...it did not work for plus..but i can open up the connector & resolder the wiring based on the 30 pin schematic..
anyone know for RCA connection..what should the pin connection be for audio & video...if it works out..then we can have RCA cable which is cheaper & hdmi still have to get a cable for hdmi itself...& frame lag ...
audio works
I have a p1000 cable with RCA video audio out and USB connection the audio and charge works great but no video.tested on 10.1, 8.9, and 7+

It's still an analog cable. Unless you can get the tablet to push an analog video signal, this won't work.
but comparing tab plus & tab 7.0, tab 7 P1000 can work with RCA cable & schematically, they look the same...so is it the software which defers the plus from working? I have ordered the hdmi dock as well, but it be glad for everyone if we can make this happens...
if the P1000 can work RCA...
P6200 should too...
I understand that in P1000 there is this TV out settings,
can this "app" be exported to tab plus...?
Just an update to the above for anyone want to know about getting the tv connection to work:
bought the desktop dock from ebay/amazon (OEM) about 25 bucks & a cheap min hdmi cable to work.
1 thing to notice though, charging cable to tab plus must be plug in to work or no signal will generate.
Also when running tv shows from plus, streaming Tv will be slower than usual when connected to TV somehow...
When disconnected, streaming is normal, when connected, streaming is slower but will still get to show on TV connection.
Also, when running certain program in portait mode, tv still show landscape even though auto-rotating is enabled (or disable), tried both ways,
so it shows that it only support landscape mode.
not sure on HDTV adapater though...only experienced with desktop dock of galaxy tab 7.0 (this work for my plus 7.0)
Hi,
often I want to sort my videos recorded by the PVR with my Tablet (ed.: Easier seek and rename)
and watch it also on my big TV via HDMI (less complicated atm then to stream it).
So I need the USB-Stick connected to it and the HDMI, too.
Is there some kind of adapter providing this with the SGN10.1 ?
Regards
Splotz
Not possible ?
ed.:
I found the pinout of the SGT10.1.
edit: Its SGT 7", but maybe the same pinout
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14612129
Looks like it could be possible to use "all" things..
Hope there will come a dock or keyboard dock to use it like a full port netbook.
Or is there already a multimedia dock available ?
Don't think so.
Something like that for the Note 10.1... wanna have...

(these pins are different, but it should be easy to build something similiar if samsung did not "lock it down" in some way)

Here is something about how to build your own cables.

The only thing I really liked about asus TF300 was the ability to easily connect usb hdd (even ntfs) to the dock while it was connected to TV through micro-hdmi. I set up a bluetooth keyboard and mouse and managing the tablet on the tv was a peace of cake. But I returned it because the performance sucks on TF300. I really wish there were some similar dock for the note tab too.

I think the Note can connect to the allshare cast dongle with is wireless mirroring. To basically the same thing. Or if you have a newer Samsung tv it connects wirelessly. to it as well.
Not sure if you can connect a usb hdd to the Note though through the usb connector.

Thx, thats true.
But I am looking for hardware connectors for HDMI, USB, Charging and Audio at the same time. Like a "real" Multimedia Docking Station / Cable.
Usable everywhere with HDMI TVs, etc...
(Maybe the SGN10.1 has also analog TV+Audio out as I saw some adapters for Galaxy Tab with these connectors)
Soo, it's half a year later... I'm looking for the same solution as the OP... I want to be able to connect my Note to a HDMI monitor, then have at least 2 usb ports (mouse and keyboard, third one would be nice) and be able to charge it at the same time. I'm looking online for a cable that would allow that but it seems impossible. Is there any hope for Note to be an interactive center?
There is one solution though... I could buy the wireless hdmi dongle, then bluetooth mouse and keyboard (does Note support 2 devices through BT at the same time?) and thus leave the charging port free but that's not so good option considering that I wouldn't be able to plug even USB stick through such setting. Still, that would cost a lot more than I'm willing to pay for it since I don't have BT keyboard nor mouse and the wifi gadget is too expensive if you ask me.
hdmi and usb at same time?
the diagam posted under 'build your own cables' shows all the connections on the 30 pin connector, but doesnt yet show which wires hook to an hdmi cable, or how to hook up hdmi.
further confusing is the fact that none of the labels for the pins on the samsung connector match any of the signals listed in the hdmi Wiki page.
would someone who has opened an hdmi adapter or dock please post wiring info for an hdmi hookup?
please? or perhaps high res photos of both sides of a dock connector board?
wondering if anyone has used a miniusb to hdmi cable for their touchpad to play on their tv.
I'm asking because I did this on my toshiba thrive and I'm hooked now :S and want to do same with touchpad if possible
I can find some cable/adapter fairly cheap online so if it works, i'd get one
something like this http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Female-Mini-Male-Adapter/dp/B000TYL27M since I already have a hdmi cable so no need to buy another if an adapter would work
edit: i'm also wondering because a quick search said it wasn't possible but i also see this page that lists product as working with touchpad :S http://www.uzid.com/wholesale-hp-touchpad-hdmi-micro-to-hdmi-lcd-3ft-adapter-cable-cord-link-1.html
What you are looking for is USB MHL since the Touchpad has no HDMI port only micro USB, but the Touchpad does not support this feature.
hm ok thanks , maybe i'll look into those hmdi android dongles i see in marketplace then.

The USB port on the HP Touchpad is barely USB OTG host compliant to connect USB devices, like keyboard, mouse, flash memory, etc. It is not USB HML capable, meaning there is no circuitry available to route video out the DATA+ / DATA- wires of the USB port.
There is no USB Dongle, or cable, that can do what you want. HP Touchpad does not support USB to HDMI.

I think he means to get an android tv dongle. They are little android devices with HDMI out and usb input, usually one of those 1Ghz A10 processors and 1Gb RAM. Neat little things, but my phone has MHL.
the mk802 is what you're talking about. there are a bunch of new versions comming out all the time. http://rikomagic.co.uk/forum, and http://miniand.com/forum are good places to get support and talk about these new devices.
Too bad we can't have HDMI out, Touchpad would do well as replacement for my media player
I was hoping someone would have some insight regarding a problem I have using an MHL adapter with a DVI connector attached on.
I have this MHL adapter: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00827EGG2/ref=oh_details_o09_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'm using dvi adapter: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002JCQVW8/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And connecting it to this projector: http://www.amazon.com/Optoma-EP739-...TF8&qid=1381161207&sr=8-1&keywords=optoma+739
The projector doesn't have an HDMI cable so I thought i'd throw on an HDMI to DVI adapter to get around that.
I've used the HDMI cable and MHL adapter on other stuff before and they work great. I've used DVI adapter and HDMI cable to connect my laptop to the projector and that works too.
When I use the MHL adapter with the DVI adapter and connect it to the projector, my One S Screen becomes all scrambled and the projector detects a signal but it displays a blue or black screen or occasionally I see about half of the notification bar and the rest of the projection is the blue screen. Also, my phone freezes at that point and I have to force restart it.
My scrambled screen one s screen looks different every time, but something like this: http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/3894/img20110927034536.jpg
If the projector's manual will help, it can be found here: http://www.projectorcentral.com/pdf/projector_manual_2566.pdf
I'm running rooted stock rom.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!
htc media link hd
did you try the htc media link?? i know its a bit expensive but i think that would be your best thing to try
you'll just need to connect the media link to your projector and use wifi to set everything up... no need for mhl and dvi connector
Hi,
I am looking for tablet to use in my car - I want it to be a multimedia device used for playing audio /or/+/ video (outputting it to rear-seat monitors as well), being ready for usb stick connection anytime and have dvb-t tuner connected 24/7.
Now after a long search I cannot really find a tablet that's around 7-8 inches, is powerful enough to handle full hd mkv's, and have mini hdmi along with double micro-usb otg, so I can have both usb stick and dvb-t tuner connected, and still have car charger attached to it, so I thought someone here may be able to help.
Anyone?
how about this tablet?

That won't work smoothly with 1080p high-bitrate video for sure
I gotta admit there's [probably] no high-end tablets with separate hdmi out currently on the market, I keep searching and searching and nothing comes up...
ntdm 3000 is a cheap chinese tablet which i use its great for 1080p on bs or mx player,.
idont know if its hdmi though.
Yeah, it doesn't.
The point it it does not need to be cheap - but there's none with hdmi out.
Found some of the tablets by "KURGER & MATZ" to have 2 micro usb ports but... they don't have both gps and bluetooth

Nexus 7 2012 has mhl (HDMI through USB port) and DVT tuner support and has car specific roms . Samsung tablets (8 inch and up) all have capability also . older 7 inchAcer a100 has HDMI and a500 10 inch. Nexus 7 2013 has slimport (newer HDMI through USB) capability. Slim port and mhl plug are only around 10- 30 $ nexus's and Samsung both have USB host and charging at the same time capability (need for DVT support) there is still active development on the old nexus its the one I'd go with. And its pretty easy to solder to the volume and power buttons so u can permently mount in your dash...
HDMI throught usb doesn't do the job for me.
I found only one tablet actually that fills my needs - Chineese PIPO T9.
One thing that sucks, is that it has 4.2.2 and they don't plan on any updates to kitkat.
Aside from that, it has everything needed.
http://www.pipo-store.com/pipo-t9-t...hone-call-tablets-gps-bluetooth-2gb-32gb.html
Separate charging port, mhl-host usb, hdmi, aux, octa-core.
Anyone has better ideas?
In case anyone googling the topic wants to know how I sorted it out in the end:
Bought PIPO M7T tablet (t9 turned out to not have separate hdmi out),
upgraded it with stock rom to 4.4.2.
32 GB MicroSD.
Full HD, even with very high bitrate plays smoothly there.
Has usb otg, hdmi, aux and dc connectors.
Got headphones out connected to aux in my car,
HDMI out heads to hdmi->av converted and goes to car av inputs.
A USB 2.0 4x hub is connected to micro usb, to which I have connected dvb-t tuner, hdmi->av converter power cord and any pendrives I want.
Tablet is constantly connected to external power using DC in.
Works superb, couldn't been better.
