i bought the samsung optical smarthub http://samsung-odd.com/eng/
Most people wont need an old fashioned portable dvd read write drive. But i bought this so that i dont need to rip my dvds to play them in the car for my child and dvds are pretty cheap anyway now compared to rental downloads which cost as much as buying the dvd.
This device can wirelessly act as a dvd read or write drive for android or ios devices or laptop or wired to a laptop. When wired to a laptop it acts like an internal drive and network features wont be there. From your android or ios device you can read or write to dvd / cd drive and also to attached flash disk or hard disk. It comes with a home charger but the device is portable enough to take on holidays to use as travel router in hotel rooms which may only gine internet access via ethernet port and this device has an internet port and can act as wireless access point. Multiple devices can access same dvd or cd or simultaeneously access dvd and flash drive. You can also wirelessly connect to DLNA or uPnP devices via this device so any content on it can be played on DLNA TVs for streaming videos. ALso can be plugged into usb ports or TVs to directly play dvds unlike other dvd drives but i havent checked the last feature.
I am thinking of setting this up in my car as a NAS device so that my child can access dvds etc wirelessly or other video files from usb sticks. But the device does not come with car charger. I am looking for a car charger for this, it needs 5volt 4amps via wall charger so will need a similar car charger which is hard to find as its 4amps. If anyone finds a similar car charger please let me know, any help in this regard is much appreciated.
I contacted amazon seller about car charger and he said to RMA the device! I was just looking for pointers for a car charger as i still like the device. Gooled for the charger but just seem to be getting junk instead of 5volt 4amp car chargers. The device comes with a usb cable with double usb ends which i plugged into two 2.1amp car chargers but didnt seem to work by charging via usb port, so will need to look for the car charger 5volts 4amps to charge via the regular charging port.

Hello, I have recently started a project on trying to get my "officially unsupported" device to work with my head unit(hu) that supports rca video in. I need some opinions on what items to purchase to get maximum compatibility. I do have a very limited price range so i can't keep trying new adapters till I find one that works.
Project information:
Head Unit: Pioneer AVH-P330BT double DIN touch screen head unit
Phone: Telstra HTC Vivid(Velocity, Raider, whatever you want to call it. Pretty obvious and unneeded anyway)
Possible link scenarios and items needed:
Code:
[B]Setup 1 -[/B]
This setup comes with both an mhl connector plus an hdmi to rca cable in one purchase. I would connect the mhl adapter to the device as per normal, and the hdmi to rca to the mhl adapter and to the back of my head unit, then change the display on my head unit to display the rca input from my phone screen.
required items:
- http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-USB-MHL-to-HDMI-Adapter-HDMI-Male-to-3-RCA-Male-Cable-for-Mobile-Phone-/350826228990
[B]Setup 2 -[/B]
same as above, but this time using an hdmi to rca adapter box, along with an mhl adapter, with the mhl adapter's hdmi cable plugged into the rca dapter, and rca cables running from the adapter to the hu. this is a bit more expensive, but the other way almost seems too cheap of a setup to be reliable.
required items:

I would love people's opinions on this project and if they have previously tried something like this and their results from doing so. Who knows, maybe someone else was wondering the same thing I have been and gets something from this thread.
Cheers guys - Tradie

Hello there!
Have discovered a strange HDMI Adapter with PD effect. I have 2017 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid with 3rd party Analog to HDMI Adapter, allowing to mirror any IPhone or Android to built-in AV Car System. So if i connect Apple phone using Apple HDMI Adapter with power connection, everything works OK. If i use Samsung HDMI to USB-C Adapter without PD ( no power connection for the phone charging), everything works excellent as well, but the Huawei P20 Pro discharges rather fast - in 2-3 hours, which is not good for long time driving.
But if i try HDMI to USB-C Adapter with PD ( have tried so far 2 of them - https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01GKSPMCQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
and https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07B9H354M/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
as soon as i connect both power cord and HDMI Adapter, GPS which was locked ( 10 or more SATS) start losing sats one by one, not immediately, but in some 5-10 sec, making usage of navigation apps, by mirroring them to the car screen impossible
Anyone has an idea what might be the problem? Very disappointing situation with excellent Huawei P20 Pro
Thank in advance
Hi, there,
have exactly the same problem with Huawei P20 Pro and Choetech USB-C to HDMI with PD port adapter (sorry can't post links).
Have used the same adapter with Samsung Galaxy S8 for a 6 months without any problems, so i think, that there is no problem with adapter itself.
Any solution or adapter reccomendation (maybe there is something special with Huawei phones)?
thanks in advance
Hello!
Has anyone tried any MHL or Slimport adaptors in this device for wired connection to a HD TV!?
I currently have an RNE-L23 and I am willing to purchase one of this but Im not sure if they'll work.
Thanks in advance.
im pretty sure these standards dont exist in usb type c adapters, any usb c to hdmi adapter should work fine, maybe look at something that is compatible with dex
Why do you focus on MHL ? I bought an affordable USB-C hub (20e), I so far only tested it on a VGA monitor with an adapter. Everything was fine. That's great a smartphone less expensive than Samsung Dex ones offers such feature.
Hello! i do not mind what kind of tech is. I just want to know if the Mate 10 lite can be connected to a HDTV using any wire or dock so I do not have to buy a TV Box for my Kodi.
It would be nice to know which ones work on the Mate 10 Pro.
I ordered one from Amazon UK, this wants to work (I see the Desktop Mode) starting up on the TV but then it loses signal and starts searching for a signal. I see the output on the screen for a fraction of a second and then it goes blank again and starts searching for Video Signal.
The one I bought was this (Which is going to have to be returned): Amazon £9.99 USB C Hub with HDMI
Do you mean to plug phone into tv? Usb c to HDMI cable works but can't charge at same time
No need for a hub
Hi, I have the same question but Huawei Mate 10 Lite don't have USB type C, it has MicroUsb.
Bought a Y cable, with USB c on one side and HDMI and USB A on the other and the phone can be charged in desktop mode.
I have a usb-c dock (amazon) and a usb-c to HDMI wire. I can charge at the same time the phone and I can use usb mouse and keyboard too.
It was less than 7 euro, btw.
Lite version might not have Desktop mode or USB TV-out at all.
Hi! Im wondering if there is a adapter to plug any HDMI device to an AA headunit? I think the dongle must run an Android OS which let the headunit think there is a AA smartphone connected. But the dongle will stream the HDMI input via USB as AA stream.
I searched for HDMI to Android Auto adapter but there are only tons of adapters to convert an android headunit to Android Auto and CarPlay compabillity.
If such a dongle doesn’t exist yet... may it be possible to realize this with a raspberry pi?
Also interested in this, please someone answer.
I don't know if the product below is what you need.

If you need to link the Android host to the screen with MDMI, you need to confirm whether your Android host supports this function.
