I have few HD movies of resolution 720p stored on my neo v (unrooted)
Now what i have observed is that HDMI output does not seem like real or close to being HD video...I dont know why is it like that ? because the same video looks too good when i watch on laptop which unfortunately dont have hdmi output..
Is it because smartphones arent intended to output the real HD quality on HDTV..or is it that it will take few tweaks or few apps which will make it more like HD..
Contents i use are genuine HD of 720p files over the internet..
Players which i use on my xperia neo v is mx video player as well as power dvd 4.xx(latest version)
Is there any other player which will make some difference when i watch HD videos through HDMI cable..
And yes my tv is full HD so it does have the capability to output all real HD stuffs upto 1080p
I would be glad with the help...thank you !!
Roooting the phone is not a solution for me...!!
The phone puts out its own maximum resolution via the hdmi cable. That means 480x854.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I really dont buy on this...as my tv shows that the output is 720p...and there is nowhere being written over the internet that it shows its own resolution...
Another reason why i dont think is because i do watch HD 720p movies..and there is nowhere screen being cut off on my HDTV...if it was showing on mobile resolution as the output is being recognised as 720p on my HDTV..!!
Thanks though hoping for more replies..with any help..!!

yes we can see that it is upscaled..but what about 720p mp4 videos..are they upscaled too ? or is it HD output i.e. 720p
Read the default prop it tells you fps HDMI output
Also mod it from there
You may be lucky

Why don't you just use your usb cable for watching movies? Does you TV support USB flash drives? Set your phone to MSC mode, and connect it the TV.

yes my tv supports USB drives..it works pretty well with pendrives on my HDTV..however it cannot play any HD files through USB on my HDTV..only divx files supported..
After being suggested by you i set my phone to MSC mode and connected but TV fails to recognise any USB device being connected
So how to overcome that..my phone is non-root does that have anything to do with it..?

My phone connects fine to the tv in MSC mode. Haven't tried movies, but browsing pictures works good. Is it a fairly new or an old TV?

yes you can say that if not much its been 2years old..belongs to LG LH60 series jazz theatre 32'
Picture on HDMI device must be same as on phone display (here is no windowsXP with super videochip with multidisplay support), therefore picture on FullHDTV is scaled 854x480

I can understand for rest of the stuffs on mobile but what about 720p mp4 videos are they upscaled too ?
Why does they advertise HD then ?
offtopic-Does samsung galaxy S2 and upcoming xperia S who have the capablility to output 1080p stuff through HDMI..is nothing but upscaling ?
Hi all!
I was wondering the way to change the hdmi output resolution of my neo v device, and looking for the xda forums and the internet. Also, i was looking for the way to turn off the screen without the tv turn off too, because i have a USB OTG cable and a mouse, and i think that is a stupid thing getting turned on both screens.
In xda forums i only found about the matter for the Atrix 4G ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501414 )
In the internet, i have found this, for the Pov/viewpad10S: ( http://www.grupoandroid.com/topic/21153-configuracion-salida-hdmi-povviewpad10s/ ). As you can see, is in spanish, and i try to translate it:
--------------------------------------------------------
The HDM output of POV Tegra, Viewpad 10s y Advent Vega is configurable, but not easily, it don't have a interface to do it. The olny way I know is through terminal or Gscript. These are the commands to change the resolution:
First su
setprop persist.tegra.dpy5.mode.width #
setprop persist.tegra.dpy5.mode.height #
Where # is the size in pixels. The first is the weight, and the second is the height. Once done this reboot. The default settings are 1920x1080.
You can configure too if we want to see it only through the HDMI output, only in the tablet or in both. We make it with this command. First it's needed to do su to have root too.
Only tablet
/system/bin/nvdmmultidisplay --lcd
Only HDMI
/system/bin/nvdmmultidisplay --hdmi
Tablet and HDMI working together
/system/bin/nvdmmultidisplay --both
--------------------------------------------------------
With my negative knowledge of programming, i understand that neo v have the first by default, and the second is a way to turn off the phone screen, when a tv is plugged in.
¿It can be done in this phone for some way?
I expect that my bad english will not be a problem. Greetings.
I was looking for solutions many times on this forum, google...
When I connect phone to LCD TV, I can not change resolution in Settings/Display/Resolution, because item "Resolution" is grayed, is not active. I don't need FHD resolution, because my TV is only HD ready. But when I connect phone to TV, resolution is terrible.
I have this problem on ICS, but I was hoping when I update my RAZR to Jelly Bean..., but nothing has changed. Please anyone help me.
Sorry for may ENG
Hi Android gurus! I have nut to crack and I was hoping you could help me with that.
I want to use my MK802 IIIS with a projector but I am having aspect ratio/resolution issues. Namely my projector supports 800x600 and 1024x768 but on my Android stick I get chose 1920x1080, 1280x720 or 720x480 (Settings->Display->HDMI modes). The stick has only HDMI output and I am using a cheap chinese adapter to connect it to the projectors vga input. For example with 720x480 I do get the picture but at left side a slice of it is cut off.
Ideal would be if I could set the video output to 1024x768 (with 4:3 aspect ratio).
So, how could I change it?
Is there any Xorg like solution, that is, add resolutions by editing some conf file?
I have limited knowledge on Android but I do know java and I am willing to digg in and so all answers and solutions are welcome. Of course it would be great if there would be easy fix but if you think I should go nuts and create a custom ROM, build custom firmware... I will be excited to hear that.
Anybody?
Where how??
I'm trying to find an answer to the same thing, Also an android stick but also in general for Andoid.
Besidess the menu's in settings, which can be limited, there must be a way to force a specific resolution.
And I don't mean "simulate" a resolution change by changing the Density/DPI
Someone must know, and It must be easy, please share
Hi, sorry for my english....
I buy a tronsmart t 428. For this android pc i must use a physical mouse and keyboard, not usefull for a tv stick....
Is It possible to creat an app who give the control by remote via hdmi cec....?
Thank for all...
AGain sorry for my english...
I don't think so, much better and easier to get an air mouse (like Mod Edit: Links Removed .
Hi, I searched and couldn't find a solution for this... So I'm asking for it, is there a way to change the resolution? I have an Asus laptop (The screen is broken) that is connected to an LG TV via HDMI.
Any help?
