How do I show Netflix on tv? - myTouch 4G Themes and Apps

Im running royal ginger which comes with the netflix app and im wondering if there is a way to view what i have on the tv. Pretty much like an HDMI cable without the HDMI port on the phone. Is there an adapter or something? I know there is a cable which goes into the headphone jack but i dont know if it will be able to play the movies on the big screen

I really don't mean to sound like a smartass, but your best bet for Netflix on a TV is a videogame system or blu-ray player that streams Netflix. I just don't think the mobile app is cut out for displaying on another screen. It barely manages to do it on the phone's.

Have you tried dlna, many newer tvs/ps3/xbox360 support it.

Why not just stream it through your laptop via and HDMI cable? That's what I do, works perfect. Or of course you can do what the guy two posts above me said. I just don't think Netflix on our phone is very practical anyways. Eats battery like crazy and heats up the phone when played too long.

Question: Have you ever seen any spec list for our phone mention HDMI out?
the DLNA will only stream content via wifi that is on our SDCard, you cannot stream apps or streaming media.

i know that the MT4G does not have HDMI, but what I am asking is if there is a way to output the screen onto the tv in a similar fashion as an HDMI. On amazon there is a cable that is designed for this using a 3.5mm headphone jack and it has the red/white/yellow plugs. My tv does not have DLNA and I do not own a blu ray player or gaming device. However I was planning on going to movie trading company or a pawn shop or something to see if there is one available. Which are the best blu ray players? if i cant find one for cheap then I will be buying the cable since it is only $9

That cable will not work with this phone. Our 3.5mm audio jack is for AUDIO only, there is no video coming out of that jack.
The 3.5mm to rca is for (mostly older, like more then 2 years) expandable mobile bluray/dvd players. I know because I have one of these mobile devices.
A standard 3.5mm jack is capable of doing three things, but most of them are only capable of 2 (stereo audio), and a few can only do one (mono audio). In our case, 2 channels are for left and right audio and 1 channel is used for mic input.
If you connect this cable to your television, you will most likely be connecting a port on your phone used for an unpowered microphone to a port on your television waiting to accept a standard def signal.
I wouldn't be surprised if most televisions put out a little tiny bit of power over that port just so it can accept the expected analog signal. My assumption is based on taking the unhooked cable and running your finger over it and watching static on the tv. You shouldn't be surprised if you destroy your phone, or at least the microphone input when you use that cable.
Also when shopping for electronics, using the criteria of "best and cheap" is like saying "yeah, man I totally hooked up with this super hot 400 lb chick"
If you want best, get a samsung or sony or phillips. If you want cheap, go insignia or dynex. If you want not so bad, and somewhat cheaper, look at a visio.
Remember, when dealing with electronics, just because it fits doesn't mean you should stick it in the hole. This might also be good advice when dealing with fat chicks.

You cannot DLNA stream NetFlix with our phones. It's [as of right now] impossible. Netlfix doesn't support it, and Twonky doesn't support it. Nor do we have any output of video, the USB jack and the headphone jack do not support HDMI or RCA output as of right now.
If you are wanting a cheap way to watch netflix you can either get a Roku Box, for like 75-80 USD or you can buy a ~125.00 USD blue ray player.

I have a friend with a Visio Blu-Ray player, it's not horrible, but it's not top notch either. I can tell a difference between my PS3 and his Visio. IT would also depend on the quality of the TV the [OP] is dealing with. If it's a 720p or 480p TV the brand will not matter that much. a 60Mhz 1080i or 1080p LCD/Plasma screen possibly. If they have a 1080p 120Mhz + or LED TV you are exactly right.

The tv I have is an AOC tv that I found at my grandfathers house. Its got 1 HDMI port and its an HD flatscreen but by looking at it it seems to be either low/mid-range quality or one of the first HD tvs. Im not a tv expert but those are the assumtions I think i can make. I dont want a high-end blu ray player because it will be traveling between dorm/home fairly often but I don't want a crappy one either. Thats why I was going to go buy a used one and hopefully get a quality machine for a low price

I'm with you. I wanted to use a PC monitor for Remote Desktop control of a couple of PCs and servers with the TP2 (as I do with the Athena). Using the TP video out and converter cables will have the cables outweigh the phone by a factor of about 2 to 1.
I believe the output on the Blackstone is composite, not component in which case I don't think that would work.
Although you can get active converters to convert composite video to VGA/RGBHV, there will be a considerable loss of quality, especially in the fine detail. Basically, it will look very blurry.
There's plenty of them on Ebay, search for EXTUSB video , or "Touch pro video"
Yep, bought one of those composite/VGA converter boxes and can definitely confirm the loss of quality/bluriness. Also too bulky to carry around conveniently and requires a power supply. Hooked my Archos up yesterday (TP2 arrived today...!) just to remind myself, as it has the same screen res and also outputs via composite and apart from it being blurry, the image also flickers, which is quite annoying. Hadn't really noticed it before, cause it's not that noticable when watching video, but when viewing text or a presentation, that would be seriously off-putting! May just be my converter box, but thinking about the conversions the signal has to go through, I can't belive other converters are going to be much better.
BO$$
"Reqiures powersupply" ?
I cannot remeber that I used power supply with it, but yes, it does have a power-supply connector to allow charging while using tv-out.
Appologies, I was posting without properly referencing the post I was replying to.
I was relpying to crypticalpha's post, regarding composite to VGA converters. My converter box requires a powersupply in order to output a picture on the monitor/projector, else you can only get sound.
Since I have not yet held my TP2 in my hands, nor owned the TP1, I cannot comment on its TV out functionality.
I had assumed the phone itself would not be required to be connected to a power source, but it is actually good to hear that confirmed!
Kind Regards
BO$$
i think this one does work. and its cheap aswell
http://cgi.benl.ebay.be/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=130310497614
I bought a HTC adaptor for charging & 3.5 headphones etc. Then I thought I'd be clever and save money and use a Nokia N95 TV out cable, but when I plug it in the TP2 sees it as Headphones.
Any ideas of how to get it working?

I can vouch for this being a good, cheap TV out cable; I bought it and it works well - the USB and 3.5mm jacks also work so you can plug a secondary sound source in or charge / sync it as well as using the TV out functionality.
One 'problem' though: using Core Player without the TV cable, the video playback is smooth as a baby's bum: with the TV out cable, it's slightly choppy. Is this to be expected or does anyone know how to improve video playback through TV cable? If so, it makes a great solution to travelling and being able to bring good TV and films with you on the phone!

When using dock-hdmi out to a tv, does audio come through the tv as well?

So I just got the gtablet and flashed to vegan 5.1.1
Was checking out some apps and noticed a few tv apps that let me watch recent shows in HD.
Got me thinking, if I buy the dock and hook the hdmi to my tv I could use the tv app and watch tv shows that way as I dont have cable. ( I use hulu and torrents)
Can anyone tell me if the hdmi will also send the audio through to the tv or if only the video is carried?
Also if anyone has ran a tv app through a dock to a tv let me know how it worked for you.
Thanks
HDMI carries both Audio and Video. If you've plugged in a PS3, notice how you only use one cord, instead of 3 like the PS2
The Dock pipes both audio and video out through the HDMI. I was watching some 624x352 mkvs on a 60" plasma and they looked okay...so depending on tv size and pickiness level, you'd be fine with torrents. The biggest limiting factor for Hulu would be quality of the flash stream (I'm in Canada so can't help you there - anything we get up here on the broadcaster's websites is pretty low-res and would probably look pretty bad on a TV).
Here's a weird question.
I have an elaborate projector setup (Epson Powerlite Home Cinema 720) and I -do not- want the HDMI to kill the 3.5 headphone jack output when attached. Any way to do this programmatically or through setup somewhere?
@JudoJeff - which player did you use and which ROM are you using?

I actually use the HDMI for ONLY audio to my receiver. I'm running Vegan 5.1.1 with the dock.
I'm using Rockplayer (bought) and vegan 5.1.1. I also got it to work with the older tnt lite rims without doing anything other than rebooting in dock.
Does anyone know if the tv apps have any issues like not letting it be output through the hdmi?
Like netflix, if you try to run it out the DRM wont let it, you just get a not allowed screen or whatever you wanna call it
I think using it for anything outside of playing a game that you downloaded doesn't make a ton of sense esp if you've got a big HDTV.

I dont have cable, I only get broadband though my cable company and I save about 120 a month.
I just download shows through torrents and put them on a thumbdrive and play it through my PS3.
Sounds like alot of work but its not.
I just saw these tv/movie appas on my tablet and thought this may be another alternative to get something to watch
Hmmm.... interesting because I didn't get any audio when I plugged an hdmi cable from the tv to my gtab with the dock (I got the dock in the mail yesterday). When I plugged it in, the video was fabulous but I couldn't get any audio to play through the tv. I'm running Vegan-Tab Ginger Edition (7.0.0).
But then again this is the tv in my bedroom, I might try it on the living room telly. The hdmi cable I was using was one I use on my dvd player. Maybe I'll try a different hdmi cable.
I have two g-tablets (see signature) and two docks. I don't get sound from the HDMI cable from either of them.
The same TV gets sound via the HDMI cable from my MythTV DVR PC.

Many TV's don't properly support the HDMI spec, so some devices will work, some won't. I should have clarified that I plug mine into my Onkyo receiver and it works very well.
Just got the dock and will be testing it out soon.
Ill try plugging into receiver first see how that works
Well hooked up the gtab and dock to my receiver.
Tried some video files I put onto sd card and they all played perfect, good picture and sound.
Then I loaded up the tv and movie app and they worked pretty well. Not HD quality by any stretch of the imagination. But watchable.
Watched the wedding singer in its entirety.
For a guy like me who doesnt have cable this is great.

In my case, it was the tv. If I plug it in my living room tv, I hear the sound out of the tv fine. I should have thought to test that because I have the same issue with tv out on my samsung Vibrant phone. It behaves on some tvs better than others.

Don't mean to hijack, but just thought I would mention that if your PS3 is in your home network then you can just use PS3 Media Server to stream your torrents instead of having to use a flash drive.

Android Market Movies and HDMI out Issues! Help

So I just rented a movie over the android market on my Prime. Trying to stream it to my TV via the HDMI cable but I get audio with NO video.......
Anyone have a fix for this?
The cable has worked to stream youtube and everything else flawlessly this is my first issues. Is there a problem with the android market?
maybe the hdmi connection doesn't use hdcp?
i haven't tried anything from the market video wise yet through hdmi though, so i can't help there.
Its weird because it works to preview the video but not to play it once you purchase.....very lame

other videos work though? i have to admit, i haven't even taken the twist ties of my hdmi cable yet, haven't needed to plug into a tv since i got it, but maybe i'll try it out tonight and see.
it really does sound like some drm/hdcp type issue though, gotta love the film and music industry to make it harder to consume contect you actully pay for vs the alternative.
Anyone else try this yet? I think ill call Google see if they have an answer

Having the same issue here, anyone able to get this working yet?
My guess is that movie playback over HDMI output is disabled (probably because it doesn't support HDCP output protection to prevent piracy).
Nothing like draconian DRM requirements to ruin a persons day.

Luckily the pirated shows I have work over HDMI!
The Prime does have HDCP, unlike my Droid X2. I've been capturing game video on both devices (www.pixel-freak.com) and have to use FRAPS to grab the Prime screens due to the HDCP piece. DX2 does not have HDCP and I am able to grab whatever I want through it. I've even tested Netflix which captures on my DX2 without the need for HDCP aversion (not that I'm pirating movies, I just tested it and it worked).
My guess with this issue is something is wrong with the HDCP/Google vids because it's only there to authenticate for this exact reason. I bet there's a glitch where it's recognizing it as capturing rather than simple displaying.
Have you tried streaming Netflix with the same setup? Theoretically it should be the same result, but I bet it won't be. I bet it will work and there is something wrong with the HDCP or Google Vids.
Same thing here.
I have the Asus Transformer Prime and rented a movie from the Android market. I bought a 30 dollar gold plated Micro HDMI cable. Plugged it into the tablet and right into HDMI 1 on my Vizio HDTV.
Everything came up! Desktops, apps, the web, youtube videos, even video I shot using the tablet. All played flawlessly.
But that movie I rented from Android market is a big no show on the big screen. I get only audio and no video.
I'm contacting the Android market and politely asking for a refund. I was hoping that I could have the option of watching on the tablet OR the HDTV.
It is disappointing.
However, I may give Netflix a go. Has anyone tried Netflix via an HDMI cable?

The movies are cheaper on the market because they are designed to be played on the small screen. Due to copyrighted it is not designed to be streamed over to your hdtv. IF I remember correctly Netflix is the same.
Fyi if your rooted the videos won't even play at all... at least that's what I found out on my DX. I certainly won't be buying movies from the market again. I asked Google for a refund and got it the next day.
Best of luck

people on the forum here have reported that rooting doesn't affect google videos on the prime
Streaming Netflix through HDMI does work. The playback of Android Market rented movies through the Transformer Prime to a TV does not work. I do suspect that this is Google limitation in order to offer movies cheaper.
It forces me to put my laptop to my TV and play the movie.
FYI. I also have an Apple iPad 2 and it allows for iTunes rented movies to be played to TV via HDMI and a their propriety HDMI adapter.
This is a disappointment that Google is seeming to limit this on their portable devices. I'd like to hear an official word though.

Here is Google's help message for watching movies on your HDTV:
Watching on your HDTV
To watch movies rented on Android Market on your HDTV, you'll need:
an HDTV that supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)—check your tv manufacturer's website to see if your HDTV is HDCP compliant
a Micro-HDMI to HDMI cable or an MHL adapter and HDMI cable, depending on your device
Once you connect your device to your HDTV, the screen of your device should be mirrored on your HDTV (both display the same content), with the audio playing on your HDTV. If the video plays without audio on your HDTV, you may need to change the input in your HDTV's audio settings.

Well, allegedly my Sony 40EX503 is HDCP compliant (though I couldn't find anything about this on Sony's website), but I cannot get Google Play movies to work. Any other videos - from a file or YouTube - work fine. I don't know whether this is due to some technical issue or Google say one thing on the help website, and do another in Play.

It has to be a technical issue because if you watch it through your pc through the same exact 1080p monitor that won't work for the prime it works fine from the PC, same HDMI cable and everything.
I imagine the MPAA agreement would be the same for watching on a pc as it is for watching through the Prime to a big screen, both 1080p just one is bigger.

100 percent not true did it today
Use OTA rootkeeper to play the videos on the prime if your prime is rooted. I've tried this on my Prime and E4GT and works like a charm.
My tv is not HDCP compliant (Olevia 537H) but during the Xmas holiday I was able to play A Christmas Carol streamed through my E4GT with an MHL adapter. I tried Inglorious Bastards last night through the prime to hdtv and it would not play - I was extremely disappointed. I will be asking for my money back.

Optical Audio Out on Prime

I'm looking to find a way to get optical audio from my Prime. I'm hoping to connect the HDMI and have the digital audio be converted into an optical out so that I can get digital audio on my home audio and car audio system.
I bought a 35mm headphone jack to optical adapter somewhere about 6 months ago to do something similar. It seems like radio shack should carry them. I'm not 100% sure where I bought it, but worth a shot.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Forum Runner
I think those are for minidiscs and anything that has dual use headphone port, but surely the Tf is audio only?
The easiest way is to use a tv without optical out. I use one on my LG 50" to 5.1. Works for my tab, laptop and comp. As far as the car, you'll have to get a deck or car tv with HDMI in, but I haven't seen anything in person that wasn't analog for audio. Decks also have bluetooth. I have a JVC that works well with audio streaming.

HDMI Output- stuck at 480p?

This seems to be a very odd bug. If I connect the tablet to a 720p Sony Bravia TV, it falls back to 480p only, which looks awful. However, if I connect it to another Samsung TV, also 720p only, it outputs in HD just fine. This happens when using same good quality Motorola cable.
Is there any way I can force the Nexus to output in 720p? I'm sure the TV and cable support it. Or is there any other workaround?
actually whats even more weird is that I thought its supposed to output to 1080p. but I haven't checked myself.
It does output at 1080p but the OP's TV is only 720p.
To the OP: I don't believe that there is a way to force the output resolution but try looking on the TV end in the settings.
Funny, I have the same exact issue with the same exact TV. Sony Bravia 46" 720p TV. It's a pretty old TV compared to today's standards.
It only outputs to 480p, and the TV has absolutely no overscan settings. It looks like crap. It works fine on my ASUS 24" computer monitor, as well as a brand new Vizio 60" 1080p TV.
Then again, I also have overscan issues with this TV when outputting my laptop to it via HDMI. Maybe it's just too old. :crying:
After seeing this post I remembered I had a HDMI cable from my Motoroloa xt720 (great phone) so dug it out, plugged it in and it works perfectly, 1080p, only small issue is a little bit cut off the screen at the top and bottom But this is only half of the status bar and a little bit of the navigation buttons at the bottom. My TV is a 2011 LG47lw45ou. Must be a TV issue. Going slightly off the subject.. after doing this I decided to plug in a wired Xbox controller using an otg cable to see if I could play the games on the tablet through my TV... it worked straight away with onlive, no controller mapping required at all, bonus!
