The minute I connect a HDMI cable to my tablet it says "Connected"
According to the instruction I have to push "menu" to see the information on the big screen, but nothing happens.

What kind of device are you using?

On some of the dock-based HDMI outputs, you have to make sure you have power connected and the dock turned-on before the HDMI will work correctly. Also, some custom ROMs inadvertently remove HDMI out support.

Hi Paul! In my Flytouch II the HDMI only works when is palyng videos, then you can push "menu" to send signal (audio/video) to HDMI and push it again to get it back.
Regards Eddie.

Hi,

Does audio go over HDMI with the movies or does it stay with the built in device audio. I dont have mini HDMI cable to try it yet.

Just recieved my mini HDMI to HDMI cable last night. And got it working with the FT2. All in all I'm really impressed. 720p movie played smoothlly and in full screen. The audio and video switch over to the TV when you hit the menu button after starting a video, with the default video player. If you hit the menu button again it switches back, very handy.

Now You tube video sucked in that it didnt go full screen on most video, because they are smaller resolution to begin with. But it is you tube after all, I wasn't too worried about that.

But Is there a way to change the zoom or resolution to go to full screen in Youtube videos?

I've only tried with a film I'd put on my SD card. It exports the film to the TV and back when I press 'menu' but everything that is black normally is bright green making it completely unwatchable. The TV is a few years old but obviously we use it every day with Sky and a PS3 and the pic is fine, any ideas what's wrong?

anone else having issues with a hissing or distorted sound with movie playback through HDMI??
Picture quality is better then expected, but the sounds becomes distorted after 5 seconds or so & renders the playback useless.

Also, when you want to exit TV mode you hit menu again..that's fine, but what do you have to hit to stop the movie from playing?? I've tried hitting every button on the device & nothing stops the video. Eventually I had to haul out the USB stick, which isn't the ideal way of stopping the movie..lol

any ideas? could the hissing just be a bad codec? plays fine on the tablet, just not hdtv..
Thanks ftanl
