[Q] HDMI interface access?

Hi everyone!
I hope i'm in the right sub-forum here...
I'm trying to find out how they accessed the hdmi output on the optimus 2x in the videoplayer app to maybe push a second user-interface on the external display...
already tried to reverse engineer the videoplayer apk, but cannot fully decompile it
did any of you maybe stumble upon an hdmi lib or something when working on custom roms?
best regards

checked the source, couldn't find anything there :/
but thanks for the hint

There's some low level driver code:

It's not the media player but it is still interesting.

Have a look in the Atrix 4g development section, they've done the opposite of what you want. They replaced the webtop initializing through HDMI with mirroring instead. So if you moved things around you might be able to get what your after.

Boot Animation no sound

Hi I just moved from my atrix to this phone and was wondering if you guys had any ideas while the sound won't play with the bootanimation? Do i have to put the audio file in a different location than media/audio/notifications. I made a couple for the atrix and now trying to make it for this awesome phone but some how can't get the sound to work. thanks
PS: once i get this part to work i can do some request on boot animations from any clips from youtube.

Boot Animation Sounds?

Does anyone know how, if it's possible, to add sound to a boot animation?

You will need to define the audio in the desc.txt file. To define audio for a part you will need to use s + the file name (should use .ogg files) under the part you want the audio to play. All audio will be loaded from /system/media, so make sure you place your audio file there. Here is an example:
p 1 0 Sample_Part1
s Sample_Audio.ogg

Thanks a bunch! I did all of this but apparently I used the wrong audio file type in the wrong location.

Well, for some reason that didn't work for me either. Any other ideas?

I know this could put hate towards me on this thread, but sounds on boot is the worst thing possible.
Usually if I ever have to turn my phone off its cause I have to be sure no sounds will happen(Movies, church, whatever) If it accidentally got turned on, a sound that comes on while booting pisses me off royally. Like the stock ATT firmware! Or I'm flashing at work and have to reboot multiple times...again sounds cause a problem...
I hear you for wanting to do your own custom sounds and I would also like to learn how this is done, but I would never do it.

Here's how my boot animation folder is setup:
Triforce
- 01_Triforce
- 02_Loop
- desc.txt
The .txt file is setup this way:
720 1280 200
p 1 0 01_Triforce
s Triforce.ogg
p 0 0 02_Loop
On ICS it will play the sound as well as 02_Loop but not 01_Triforce. On JB it plays all the visuals but not the sound. Any ideas as to what is wrong?

[Q] Stock Boot Animation.

Does anyone have the stock boot animation? I've searched for it, but have not had any luck. Anyone want to post an obvious link that i probably missed? Or pull the Boot animation and post it?

just download any rom and remove it yourself it really easy to do.

Found these in /system/media
It looks like there are two .mp4 files in there, but i'm not entirely sure about their codec as it looked funky on my system. The first looks like the actual animation, and the second is the loop that continues until the phone is booted. I don't know what the purpose of the "-encrypted.zip" is except maybe if your phone is encrypted?
