I tried the tvout with the offical hmdi adapter but it mirrors the tablet including the system bar, and since the resolution of the tablet is 16:10 and not 16:9 I get two black vertical stripes at both sides.
Is there a way to change this behavior? Like a full 16:9 or a 1080p out?

You'll need to change the settings on your TV to stretch the picture or zoom it, most TV's have a setting to automatically do this to hide black bars, the only problem is it alters the shapes, people end up with odd shaped heads etc
So basically there is no way to play on a tv a 16:9 fullhd video or a slidewhow without status bar? I mean, is mirroring the only one mode?
You can set this up to hide the status bar, but 16:9 is always going to be an issue as the tablet is not 16:9
Yes, but still tvout is a limited feature since I can't have an extended desktop or i.e. a slideshow played on tv while working on something on the tab...

Hang on......so you want to play a video to the TV in HD widescreen while still doing something on the tablet ?
I'm pretty sure there's no Android devices that do this
A kind of... My first aim is to play a slideshow on a tv in full screen mode, while seeing the slide's tree on the tablet and choosing which one to show in full screen on the tv.
Second aim is to disable tablet video and show only tv. It would be nice to play a 3d game on the tv, but as long as the video is doubled fps are so low that it's unplayable.
FPS won't be doubled as all you're doing is doubling up the video output, not the data going through the GPU, there's plenty of video's on youtube of folks using MHL adapters to connect to a TV to play games
Yes fps won't be halved but, since a tough game is very cpu intensive, doubling the video it lags a lot more the tablet. My tablet is much more laggy even simply swiping on the home screens or app drawer when connected to a tv.
Flash motley kernel and overclock to 1.4
I believe a Nexus Q will let you send video from the tablet to the TV whilst doing other stuff on the tablet, but it costs quite a lot.
Definitely hear some unrealistic multitasking wants. Also, doesn't ICS improve hdmi out options as far as full screen video, not just mirroring?

The Galaxy note 10.1 has this function in the movieplayer to only show the video while controls are shown on the tablet. This is exactly what you are asking if i understand you correctly.
I'm also looking for more possibilities in this area. Being able to see the picture Gallery while only showing the last picture (or non at the start) would be amazing!
If i find anything i will share it here
With all the new 18:9 phones released this year, has anyone managed to get YouTube to stretch in our mi mix to make those black bars go away? I've been looking for a way, but no luck so far
anyone ?
Search ''Vanced youtube'' that apk had got pinch to zoom feature which feels full screen.
Try VLC app, it has a "fit screen" function.
Hi Guys.
Interested in getting this device but was wondering if the teardrop notch can be hidden during YouTube playback

According to the early reviews on YouTube, there's no option to hide the notch in MIUI, so I doubt you'd be able to in YouTube, I could be wrong though
can we remap assistant button on Chinese version to Google assistant?
wondering does most ppl prefer to crop youtube or any video just for fullscreen experience?
own 18.5:9 phone but most youtube video still 16:9 or new 18:9 (rare).
mi9 already have 19.5:9 screen, i will never crop to make top and bottom video gone just for full screen experience
In the GSM Arena review they play a game, and at either side I don't see a notch. It's really odd, because it doesn't look like there is, say, a black border around the notch either.
I will be interested to see for myself when my phone arrives
When using either app and using the app control to go full screen, does the video image extend past the camera cutout, all the way to the bezel?
I'm using the OnePlus 7T right now and neither of these apps will do that. There's a black bar hiding the camera notch. Netflix and YouTube do extend bezel to bezel because their developers are using the right Android API flag to do this.
I think that OnePlus developers do not implement the "show app in fullscreen" feature the same way the OneUI does. OnePlus support says it's up to the app developers, but I suspect that in OneUI and selecting to display an app in fullscreen, the OneUI layer doesn't actually tell the video app that there is a camera cutout, bypassing whatever flag app developers use. TLDR, can one answer my above question please? Thanks.
PLEX does not, but it does go right to the very edge of the camera, though if the video is cropped with black bars, it will be in further.
Prime video also just goes to the edge of the cutout. Unless I go into Android settings and force full screen for Prime. Then it goes all the way to the bezel. Plex does not appear to do that.
It appears there are multiple ways an app can go full screen because I have seen games that extend all the way to the bezel and others that just go to the edge of the cutout.
Until yesterday, when playing games I was able to view them full screen (edge to edge) even showing over the front camera (which I was content with); however, I have updated software to CPH2305_11_A 18 and now the left hand side of the screen has a border, even if I select Auto adapt, Show front camera or Hide front camera (show app in full screen) options, the border still remains. Has anybody come across this issue and how did you solve it?
