What's the deal with MHL and all these Kernels? - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I recently upgraded to Android 4.3 using the latest InsertCoin Rom and I was delighted to see that it was finally outputting 1080p video (all previous roms did so at 720p) at 24fps.
So I went and downloaded the Elemental X kernel because it says in the description that they increased the MHL refresh rate. To my surprise, my phone was once again outputting 720p video!
Next, I decided to test out the Bulletproof Kernel, and what do you know, it still outputs video at 720p.
Are there no Kernels or adjustments that allow video outputs of 1080p at 30+fps over mhl?

Can we get 1080p playback in our device?

Can we get 1080p playback in our device?the samsung infuse 4g in us uses the same cpu and has the same same amount of ram not sure abt the gpu tho.but it runs on froyo so hardware acceleration by gpu isnt the case here i think.so can any one develop a tweak or sumthing for 1080p playback and if possible 720p mkv playback,cause it lags in 720p.its irritating cause the cpu definitile has the capabality to play upto 1080p i think.all thanks to a half baked job done by samsung we are stuck with this issue.any input anyone????

No. The i9000 screen resolution is 800 x 480, meaning it has enough resolution to display 720, but not 1080. Nothing to do with software or cpu / gpu potential. Besides which, with a screen display that small, there would be no noticable difference between 720 and 1080 anyway.
Playing a vdo depends on processing power not on screen resolution.i kno there wont be any noticable difference on viewing due to the screen size.but that way i cud play my 1080p contents without converting on my fon.besides i 9000 can already play 1080p vdo.its i9003 that we r talkin abt.

The samsung infuse 4g has a 1.2 ghz processor

Yes but the same cortex a8 processor just slightly overclocked.

I think its basically GPU, than CPU power which is important for playing vdo. it could be possible with more optimized drivers and compatible codecs to process those vdo files. But where is the development for our device? Not even custom recovery yet to try out and experiment. very much disappointing , st such a large community we do not have a single techy to help us.

i also tried some non-native players, such as vplayer, which allows you to play matroska files... but even a 3Gb sized movie slows down my device... it was 1080p resolution, and i thought that maybe a "little" 3Gb file would work smoothly.
Maybe if you convert it to mp4 or avi, it would work! but it makes you waste your time, and it's so annoying...
I have used kies converter.it converts 1080p and mkv files to 720p mp4.it works.but as said,tym consuming.altho mkv files which are not 720p plays smoothly on non native players.but why isnt sumone with programin knowledge buyin this fon and workin on it.it practically has the same hardware as moto droid x.have u seen the benchmark of that thing on stock firmware!!!

Thanks to samsung crappy drivers and outdated rfs file system.

screen resolution is not affecting to play 1080p videos. Because Galaxy S2 also has the same display resolution but it can play 1080p videos. Galaxy Tab P1000 has the same CPU and GPU as galaxy S, but it also can play 1080p videos. So the problem is with the codecs. Hardware is enough to play full HD videos.

1080p 60fps hack?

Is there any possibility to get this type of video recording In HTC ONE in the near future by using some kind of hack or ROM implementation? I know that there is a 720p 60fps option but the video quality is terrible even though it's smooth.

[Discussion] Slimport HDMI improvement and issues on Android 4.3

Since I have plugged in my Nexus 4 to the TV I noticed new stuff such has now it is not forced on landscape, more FPS in the OS makes it seem smoother on the TV, image and sound quality has been improved.
The only issues is that since Android 4.3 on YouTube while watching a video there is a blue block graphical glitch which only shows up on the TV, I do not know if it is an issue with the Slimport HDMI Adapter itself.

I have this issue too, it's a regression, I'm not impressed.

I'm on stock 4.3 tried JW- Faux and Franco kernels, both give me no problems whatsoever. However YouTube still uses S/W playback Try playing something with H/W encoder.

Apparently you can use VPlayer with YouTube links so you can watch YouTube videos using a H/W encoder.

[Q] 1080p Video Recording

Hi all.
I have been trying to enable 1080p recording on our s3 mini and would like some help. I downloaded cm11 from the xperia P (same cpu, records 1080p, different camera) and changed our build.prop and media_profiles.xml to try enable it. Now in the stock camera and other camera apps I get the option to record 1080p but its always gives me an error. But when I change from 720 to 1080 in the camera app I can cleary see a change in the field of view, i.e, it gets wider.
Someone on here said a while back that the hardware is capable of it but it just needs to be enabled. Has anyone any experience is anything like this? I have seen it been done before on the Moto Atrix 4g and Galaxy Nexus.
I thought the camera wasn't capable of recording in 1080p.

our hardware only supports up to 720p recording. apps dont change this

There is already a thread here discussing the port. Google it "HTC M9 Camera Port" and go to the developer's Google+ page and there is a patch available for download to include the the 4k video resolution.
I came from a HTC M8 and loved the Cam and app. I find the google camera to actually to better than this port. It feels slow and pics come out grainy in some shots for me. Its still great to have this port!
