SGS TV IN - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I own a SGS and I am wondering if you could use the Phone to display video (e.g. from a camcorder) like an external monitor? As you can use the output to stream to a TV it might be possible to use that reverse? Does a driver allready exist?
TIA

if just connect the samsung tab to the LCD monitor by hdmi. But without playing videos, let say, i open a game app, will i still see the game screen on both LCD and tab monitor?
thanks!
HDMI cable output is video player or certain apps like Netflix. The image on the LCD is portrait, and is mirrored and doesn't time out.
You need the cable that isn't quite HD quality, but will mirror everything on your screen. It has RCA video and sound connectors (red, white, yellow). I use that for my classroom connected to a projector. I got it from Amazon for less than $10.
Here's a link to a popular cable.

I'd say your install didn't go well. I've been using RaspBMC since March with a Samsung TV, never had any issued, never even needed a clean install, just update after update. Try installing again, possibly using NOOBS.

Hi, Thx for your Reply.
I tried to Install Xbian, with no Sound, Then I Tried OpenElec with Noobs, no Sound, I think the Problem is realy the TV.
I tried to Stream Sound from my Laptop over an Displayport to HDMI Cable and ther also was no Sound.
I need to figure out is it the TV or the config.
Today I will try it with an Video Projector with mono Sound.
If this work, then I know the Probleme is the TV.

What about a different device hooked up to the TV? Or different cable. Possibly even try something silly like switching the cable ends.

Could it be that you're trying to play a file with DTS and your TV can't decode it? The Raspberry Pi doesn't decode DTS, at best it forwards it through HDMI and hopes your telly can decode it. Have you tried playing an MP3 file??

Tomorrow I will try a BlueRay Player.
Will write the Results.
But I think there is no chance to get that TV playing Sound from the Pi.

Good luck! Don't forget to leave feedback.
Hey guys.
I also just got my pi and put xbain on it. I have an LG TV and have the very same problem. No sound. I've tried almost everything I can find anywhere with no luck.
If I unplug the HDMI cable from the pi and connect it to my laptop, the sound works perfectly. So does the sound on my Apple TV and Playstation. Makes me think the problem is the pi and not the TV.
The video plays great. Just no sound. Not even music plays. The config file updates aren't working either.
BUT! What's weird is that I got it working for about an hour over the weekend, but then needed to do a clean install of xbian and it never worked again. So I know the TV and pi are not faulty.
Any ideas?
Hey Dude,
can you upload your config.txt file pls.
So I can take a look on it. In my acse the problme is the TV when I plug the pi in an other Device (Video Projector) then it plays the Sound.
Did you trie'd RASPBMC?
Now I finally tried a BD DVD Player over HDMI and now I know the Problem is definitely the TV it plays no Sound.
I use a 47" 3D LG TV, had the same problem. I install a radio station who add some plug in and now it's working. Take 10 min of your time to try...

You could always try something like this and connect it to a sound bar or like device.

Update to the very latest Raspian and type this...
Code:
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
Scroll down to where you see "#hdmi_drive=2" and then delete the "#"
Then press Ctrl-o and then Ctrl-x to save and exit.
Reboot the system, and you may have sound!
I had the same problem earlier in the year, and I had to jump through a few hoops to get sound working properly, I did a fresh intall this week, and I only needed to use the above to get sound via HDMI.

Will my TV support ChromeCast?

Hey guys I am currently running a LG 42LG30 TV. Im wondering if the chromecast will work for the TV. It has a HDMI and USB port, but ive seen that if you have an oldish TV the audio might not work? Sorry if I sound like a noob. The TV does not support ARC if that is relevant. Sorry If I do not include something. Also should I hold on getting updates if I do get it and go for root? Or anything like that. Unfortunately I am unable to include a link to the TV as I am a new member,easy to find on amazon.

You will get audio on your TV speakers unless there's something incredibly wrong.
Do you have an audio system? Sound bar, AV receiver? If not, nothing to worry about.

Should work with any HDMI. You only need ARC if you want to output audio from your TV (to a sound bar or something else).

Could you use regular font size in future, it's very unpleasant to read current huge fonts!
HDMI is a standard and regardless if you have v1 or v1.4 ports it should work properly. As far I know Chromecast has HDMI 1.4. You may look at TV manual for HDMI version info but I doubt if it's there. For more info about HDMI version changes please read text from link below.

[HELP] Monitor's touchscreen working on ChromeCast

Hi.
I wanna build a project for a car DVD with a monitor touchscreen with ChromeCast on it.
But I want to use the monitor's touch to control ChromeCast.
How can I do that?
Because it will cost a 100-150 dollars and a DVD with that all is 350-400 dollars and will be worser than ChromeCast.
Sorry my bad english.

Take a look at ARUnchained and see if that can suite your needs. It's not exactly a stand alone setup, it would require a head unit that has AppRadio with HDMI. You could then run an external monitor but your touch controls would be on the screen of the head unit not the external screen.

Red magic 3 + capture card

Hello guys, I have a big question here,
As you may know, red magic 3 do not have its own screen recording, so you will need to use app with that crappy sound via mic or root it to install a bunch of things to can use internal audio, but i don't want that, i want to stream and record gameplays with very good audio and good video quality, the question is the next: will the capture card elgato HD60s works with this phone? i mean, i can use an HDMI splitter to can use usb type c to hdmi and bypass the block thing but i'm not sure, maybe someone knows more about this, will this phone be able to send audio via the usb type-c port?

This is a valid concern. Oneplus 6 had no USB to HDMI. I din't care, but some people might.
Does this phone actually have USB to HDMI hardware?

Nope as they told me in the chat some days ago in facebook messenger
Your phone seems on Global ROM. CN rom has a built-in screenrecorder that can record internal sound.
You have an option to flash your phone to CN rom.
I haven't tried using capture card or USB-C to HDMI.
I have a CN Rom Nubia Red Magic 3, but when I stream to youtube, fb live, i use Android screen mirror with OBS
This video taught me how to do it.

Even the global ROM has internal screen recorder now. On the 1.16 or 2.10 version.
