Whats some good content I can download online that would look good on our display? Would a blueray rip of xxxx (insert favorite movie) make a good candidate.
I've also heard that for the best possible picture that nothing beats animated movies. So for example Shrek in 1080p would look great. Does anyone agree?

I find Timescapes to be good on HTC One.

Thanks for Any help

Depends on the quality the video was uploaded to Youtube.
In all honesty though, the different quality content will only be able to be played in the native resolution of your device either upscaled or downscaled.
loool definately 480p ... u have a hard time getting 720p yt to play even with 3rd party apps
Ok cool

Well, this is actually my first Android Phone, I've only used a Android Tablet before and my tablet had a YouTube App with an HD, not a HQ, function.
So my Question: Is there a YouTube HD App for android 2.3.5/6?
HQ kinda sucks on the note screen.
why use an app when you have a browser? just go on youtube.com, choose your video and choose the resolution for it there.

For some reason the newer version of the YouTube app does not offer the HQ option...so you will have to go back to the 2.1.6 version...
Find a jetvd apk, it's no longer in the android market, you can choose hd there and stream through your video player in hd (you can also use it to download youtube vids in hd) . HQ on the official app is only 480p no HD option so far. I also would be interested in hearing about any other apps that can stream HD youtube vids.

This is awesome, not a complete replacement for the youtube app but better than nothing and still a bit more comfortable than the browser
Jetvd gets to available options screen, I touch the thumbnail and nothing happens. I set a download folder and Im on wifi. So far jetvd sucks. J/k just cant get it to work.
Try Tubemate from the App Store. Dunno if its full HD but choosing the highest setting looks pretty cool on the Note, way better than the YouTube app. Being able to download vids is a nice bonus.

Guess I was referring to HQ. Tried I screenshot and the video didn't show for some reason. Shame because it was a good one

tubemate is good, it lets you download or stream in any resolution available for the video. I prefer to download the videos in 720p or 1080P and play back that way if I want to watch it again I keep it saving future bandwidth and it looks much better then HQ in the yt app which is probably only 480P.
You can view yt in browser in desktop mode and select resolution but going full screen generally is a pain and doesn't look as good as a 720P or higher download in tubemate. Best to get tubemate from the official site tubemate.net as there are dodgy versions around even been some bad infected ones on market apparently according to the aps developer.
You should be able to stream video if you have an HTC MediaLinkHD.
This will only work with videos/music stored locally on the tablet. It will not clone your display, so no surfing the web or games on the tv. Just streaming movies and music to a tv.
I was toying with it last night on my transformer prime. I tried bubble upnp, imediashare, etc... All of them would stream music no issues, but the video would always fail.
Then I found this free app, and every video I tested worked. In most cases, this worked better then the pairing between my evoLTE and the medialink.
If you search the play store for medialink , you should find an app called Wi-Fi Media by Cavium (wont show up when searching for Wi-Fi Media). Install it, choose your movie, and set the renderer to the medialink.
profit???

Of course I don't have the Nexus7 yet. But if anyone does, and has the medialink and wants to try it I don't see why it would be any different then my prime running AOKP.
This would be an expensive option if you don't own a newer HTC device and already own a medialink. But seems the option is there at least.
The no video output was more of a deal breaker to me then the storage, and that seems to be a non-issue now. If I could just find one in stock.
we can't have an app for make a mirror screen such as htc one x use 3 fingers to mirror the screen is not possible with a mod in next rom custom ?
I've been using the the media link and the Wi-Fi media app with my nexus 7 and must say it works well. We take it with us now just in case we need to keep the kids quiet with a film. The video quality at 720p source is very good and it hasn't stuttered once.

Don't know if I would have bought one though. I got mine free from phones 4U, when I got my one x.

I have one but mirroring kind of sucked and it was all that was available outside of the stock player and YouTube which actually sent the content via MediaLink (not just mirroring) on my HTC One X. I'll give it a shot with my Nexus 7 tonight. I was underwhelmed with the device using my HTC One X but I hope that it's better with the Nexus 7. Fingers crossed!
This should essentially be the same thing, a lot cheaper... once it releases.

Should have a beta out in the next 4 weeks, they are planning support for the n7.
Can anyone confirm if it works using play store movies that have DRM?

Can anyone provide a categoric answer on whether the HTC Media Link HD will play movies downloaded onto the Nexus 7 from the Play store that have DRM protection?
I think answering this single question will stop a lot of people hunting around and ultimately creating similar threads on the Nexus to TV issue.
Thanks.

How is this possible? At 1280x800 we have 1,024,000 pixels, at 32bit color depth that gives 32mbit per full screen image, so standard 60hz video would require just shy of 2gb/s... Wifi can't do anywhere close to 2 gigabit per second, 802.11n theoretical max is only 600 megabit and that's using 4 spatial streams which no consumer hardware supports... for most home users their max is going to be about 300 megabit/second using 40mhz channels and 2 spatial streams with a guard interval of 400ns (and even that is hard to achieve). At 300mb/s you'll get a frame rate of less than 10hz without compression.
So how the hell are they doing it?
I have a ps vita and some video.
I have many possibiltys how i could convert my video, like mpeg4 (mp4 for sony ps) in 340*280 or ps3 with something *420....
I want to know which format would be best for psvitas hd screen (720*???) i am really no expert just want to know which is the best solution for good videos on that little screen... hope you can help me

Maybe download the 3Dmark benchmark app? It's pretty!

I know u can rent HTC watch in hd but I doubt it's 1080p lol

I think the best way is to go to the same website on their non-1080p phone and zoom in and out on text to show how much smoother it looks on yours at all the different sizes. Then watch a video (timescapes posted above is an excellent one to use, and has the advantage of being excellent for showing off the speakers as well) on both phones so they can see how much better yours looks.
