Displaylink released the open source drivers for linux a while ago, for the people who dont know what display link is, its outputting video via a usb port using a special chip in certain monitors. almost any device that runs linux and has usb in theory do it, http://twitter.com/libdlo had this on a tweet: @s31n6 Definitely possible to port libdlo and/or to displaylink-mod to android. Perhaps contribute a development platform to a developer...
The only thing is, the current Linux drivers don't support compression, obviously the company doesn't want the propriety algorithm that the windows and osx closed source drivers contain being leaked..
If a Linux based router can be have display outputted surely an Android phone can!!!

This already been looked at???
G1/dream lacks video output = dead before the start.

I think your missing the point slightly, the video is outputted as a data stream and you dont need a video out chip to do so other wise how would the get a display output on a netgear router!
anything that runs linux and has a usb port can output video using the display link drivers and a compatible monitor!!
Android Screencast
What about android screencast 0.4; please search for it, as I am unable to post URL's.
yeah I use this!! good for use when connected to a PC!
Here is a android 1.6 driver from the opensource .

Hi All....
Glad to be part of such an effective forum.
I've already searched the forum for what i want. Hence starting a new topic.
What i want to do is:
- Play something on my PC. i.e., a movie file.
- Listen to it over BLUETOOTH on my Android phone
WiFi, Internet is not an option for me.
Reason:
I've a new 24' Display and hence wanna view it at a distance using my phone to do the wireless work over bluetooth.
I've used GRemote Pro. Its to just control your pc's mouse pointer mostly.
I need audio to be streamed over to the phone.
Specs:
Win 7 32 Bit
Android 2.2 Phone. SGS i9000.
I've added my query as a general question as it must be the same for all android phones
Any Help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Somniloquist
Hi every wonderfull android devs !!
I'm a proud owner of the wonderfull (again) TF101, but i guess something usefull is missing in android mobility solution : i named : USB/PCI driver and player for TNT DVB-T TV Tuners under android
As now tablets and even phone have USB plugs and enough power to make it, maybe they can support those little USB TV tuner dongles.
As reference under windows i'm using pouchin TV which is a lite and fluid player for TNT TV (DVB-T - H264 codecs etc ...) but i know there are many more like this one and maybe some which could be better... BUT my guess is for android !! i fall in love with it, its not perfect but it tend to be a light and easy to use (and in same time powerfull and completly controlable and customizable).
(But if i can make a parenthesis i would say that android fully interface with windows and that's great but only few apps can fill the connectivity gap between androtablets and androphones (like pdanet for instance). So please think about functionnality between 2 android device in your apps devs
parenthesis closed . )
So what about my suggestion about a new kind of app for android : i mean TNT TV support (for mobility reasons) through mini antennas or wall antenna plugs?..
First : is it possible? (i guess most linux distro already did it)
second : will it be done one day? does some brave guys/grils with gold software coding hands would be brave enough to make it !?
Please respond to my hope!!!
Thank a lot for all the work already done and for the one that will be ! (in any topics )

Yep, DVB-T on Android is possible:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=871391
USB TV tuner support on the gen8 Archos devices.
I am looking for this too.
Hi
First thanks for replies.
So if i have well read, froyo include the good drivers for usb tuners, but the transformer is under honeycomb (but that shouldn't be a trouble, as i guess that drivers would be included to it also) and the main trouble would be to adapt this app to the transformer (hardware point of view), it's just à guess as I'm just a Mc guyver with c code... And at least working on a rooted stock Rom..
Am i right?

Is thid project "death"?
I have a DVB-T-Stick with RTL2832U Chip (and 820T).
In the Play store, there is also a driver for this "RTL2832U" based DVB-T sticks Intended for a SDR App.
I can receive flight transponder data live from airplanes with a app, but there is no universal DVB-T tv app ?
Only "DVB-T for Android" etc., for ELECOM Micro-USB etc. DVB-T-Tuners.
Hello All,
May you want to check this USB tuner supports on Android TV;
Hi XDA
I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I don't know another forum to post such a general question like this.
What I want to achieve: Have a TV/Display with HDMI Input mirroring (or extending) the screen of a device running Windows over WLAN.
Available Devices:
- Raspberry Pi
- Chromecast
- HTC Medialink HD
- USB WLAN Adapter
- A machine running Windows 8.1
Is there good solution for this problem or is this impossible? Unfortunately I can't use Linux
Hello, I use the justop k10a (4.2.2) on my TV and want to mirror the display to my PC so I can use it even without the TV on.
I read the stick supports Miracast and has a WifiDisplay app installed (which searches something when I run it, maybe for a pc client?),
also my pc supports Miracast (Windows 8.1 Pro).
How can I do this?
