I have the Acer Iconia tab a500.
I want to send video from my tab to the tv. I have teh hdmi cable. Bought a new one from comp usa this weekend.
I connect the cable and play the movie but nothing comes out. When I try to select the hdmi port on the tv it says nothing is connected.
So could I have a bad cable?
Bad hdmi port?
Something has to be turned on on the tablet?
I have googled the heck out of this and looked in the setting etc. nothing that says hdmi.
Also I called acer and they said this was out of scope of support that I and refered me to some other number and they wanted 150$ to support me. Not going to happen.
This is a function of the tablet so I wouldl expect them to support it.
I even truned ont eh media server sw to see if that was the issue.
anyone know how to get this to work?
Thank you.
