Can i stream 1080p movies through HDMI? - LG Optimus 2x

Is it possible to watch 1080p movies to TV through the HDMI port? I guess i can, but what about FPS? what app and rom i need for that?
I want to stream from my network (NFS). Can this phone handle it?

It does output 1080p, but HDMI only works on ICS or GB.

Use tattoo like a usb storage and play video from the car's player..
I don't think something like "video-tethering" is possible.

Galaxy Tab P1000 and 540p MKV problems

Hi guys. I have Galaxy Tab P1000 and I love it, because it has 7 inch display (yeah, 1024x600, that sucks, I agree). I tried to play NBA game 540p MKV rip and I had issue - sound was far behind video. I thought, that rip is ****, but no. In computer and LG Optimus 4X HD everything worked flawlessly. I tried MX Player, internal Video player - same **** (Android 2.3). Throw P1000 away and just buy Nexus 7?
Try BS player?

or DicePlayer as it supports hardware playback
Hi,
When using the MX player, you have to select HW+ decode.
In my tab, i can watch 720 MKVs without problems. 1080 is too much.
Also, it is a big difference if you use the internal memory vs the micro SD card. Micro SD card performance depends on the class of the card.
I hope it helps.

Addition to MX player case - some time you need to use HW or HW+ decoder for video, but keep using SW decoder for audio (icon audio on the right, unchecked the option).

MHL Videos with Subtitles[SOLVED]

Well. S4 is quite powerfull for our device and well. Its kinda useless unless you do something that requires that firepower. Well Sony has put a great H/W mhl chip and it can interpolate the screen to FullHD if you have proper cable and tv. Watching Hd movies is a pleasure but only sometimes. I know English and i dont need subtitles. But when i wana watch a film with my family. And its full HD. I cant. S/W decoding lacs and it shows subtitles. H/W is perfect and smooth but Sony didnt make subtitles to be shown over H/W decoding on the big screen. Have anyone found a way to show subtitles ?
So the solution is to download VLC for Android and enable Hardware acceleration in options. It plays 1080p uncomressed videos perfectly and supports subtitles over the MHL cable

Oh yeah. Sorry bout that. So both players doesn't work? How bout HW+? But SW drains your battery and makes your phone kinda hot so it's not worth it.

And I believe it's got nothing to do with Sony, it's a limitation of the technology, because Dice player offers an expliciely stated experimental feature for subtite output via hdmi. I'd have to check if its for Samsung devices only though, I believe I remember the option saying that.
Side question: most fullhd tvs feature a usb port nowadays anyway, why not use that and play your stuff directly on the tv if the technology doesnt seem to be really there...?
Re: MHL Videos
I agree. Or you could download screen standby in play store. Try if it could reduce lag when using SW rendering

Dude thats imposible( i havent found a way)
Nope, it's not the same: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI#Relationship_with_MHL
Different connector, different wireing, different (altered) protocol. Nope, not the same.
Well it's not possible on your phone but you have a PC. There's plenty of tools to be found in the allmighty internet allowing you to easily overlay the subtitles onto your existing video. They will be a part of the "images" then though. Depending on the firepower at your disposal, such an encode takes somwhere between 10-30 minutes per movie for a typical hollywood blockbuster.

Yep. Well i asked a person who edits videos and he said that it cant be hardcoded. Butt. thanks for the info. Although I really want sony to implement subtitles over MHL. And i mean there is no difference if i say HDMI or MHL. MHL is a convertor and it decodes colors different way. But it has aboslutly the same posibilities.

Uhm... yes it can.
On the other hand, dont feed the trolls: You're right, it can't be done...

Does the Nexus 7 play 720p or 1080p videos flawlessly?

Does the device play .mkv videos smoothly?
I'm thinking of getting the device for video playback, just want something which can play my collection of videos.
Beamed from Jupiter on my Galaxy Note II
1080p?No problem
hell yes i watched avengers full 1080... so smooth... these days I don't even use laptop for videos any more. Anything I want to watch I put it on my nexus
Nice!
All the more reason to get it!
MX Player with h/w acceleration plays 1080p videos flawlessly. Just finished Cloud Atlas 1080p and it was incredible.
I use bsplayer for playback. It's excellent

Plays my BD rips in MKV just fine, but I downsize them for the N7 because there's no appreciable difference in quality and a huge difference in file size.
I usually will use mp4 instead of mkv so my thumb drive will work in my Xbox360 as well. I haven't had any issues with it running from a thumb drive in 1080p
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
You can play 1080p but the N7's resolution only goes up to 720p
I dunno about mkv, but I've played 1080 mp4 with no issues. Used MX Player.
As long as you use the ffmpeg plugin for your video player... diceplayer, Mxplayer, the archos player... the nexus 7 will play all videos, even 1080p, with HWA using very little CPU. Usually staying in the LP core.

No problem with 1080 using H/W decoding but I loose audio sync with S/W decoding.
If its encoded in Hi10 then no, it will play in software mode and drop frames. This isn't the devices fault, the available media players and codecs just don't support it yet. otherwise it runs other encoded 720/1080p just fine and smoothly.
Seems I am only facing slow problem while playing such HD movies..its not flawless for me..I am using MX player..any suggestions ?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
I never bother with 1080p since the screen only displays up to 720p. I change all my mkv files into mp4 and play them inthe stock video player without issue though. Play perfectly smooth. Watch at least 2-3 movies a week. If i'm lazy though i have MXplayer installed for when i don't want to change it into an mp4 format. Sometimes need to use software decoding to play certain files well. But it always plays them no matter what without a problem!

Did you set the hardware decoder to HW+? I because with only HW you can have slow playback.
i would also like to state.
This is a 720p screen, and i have no issues playing 720p video. The screen will not display 1080p resolution, so 1080p video is worthless on the device.
They may work but they are down-scaled versions of 1080p, to 720p.
There is no purpose for 1080p video on this device. Also, the screen is too small to really notice the clarity of a 1080p resolution anyways at 7". 720p looks and plays wonderfully on this device!! 1080p video >.> if you have a codec, it will play at 720p. Dont waste yo space!!!

Can someone tell me why?

When i play movie on my incS the movie start to lag. My phone memory have alot of space more also my sd card. Any solution?
Yoo Momma Ass!!
In what codec is the movie encoded? What's the resolution of the movie? Since the incredible s doesn't have a very powerful processor, it's difficult for it to decode when the bitrate is too high. For example for hd or full hd videos

Since the resolution of our screen is 800x480, videos above 480p aren't worth it anyway.

Indeed. If feasible, just try to transcode whatever you want to play in a 'mobile ready' format regarding resolution and bitrate.
I managed to play streaming TV ( 576i, mpeg2, 8 mbit ) using MX Player but that's about what you can expect. Or of course 720p at a lower bitrate (since Inc. S can also record in that format).
you can use mxplayer it isthe best player for playing movies without any lag.
