[Q] How to turn on video-out?

---

I have still the old video-out cable from the original Galaxy tab (the one with the red, yellow and white Cinch connectors). Does it work with the 7.7 and if yes, how? I found no way to turn on the video out feature...

Hi you need the HDMI adaptor sa far as I know, the composite one doesn't work on the p6800

That is correct. Composite video out via the 3.5mm headphone jack does not work for the 7.7. Have a read through my related post here.

I Test The old cable With P6200 and P6800. And I have only Audio, Without any Video. I Think the Problem is Honeycomb. Maybe it's Work After Update to ICS.

The Composite Video Cable Have 30pin Socket. and it's not 3.5mm headphone Socket.

Again, read my other post. The link was in response to someone asking about the exact same question but with regard to the 30-pin adapter.

In short, no composite video for you. Ever. Not via 3.5mm, not via 30-pin plug, not via anything. 1280*800 resolution is WAY too high for composite video anyway. Your only option is HDMI.

Probably because the necessary hardware to downscale the 1024x600 resolution to composite isn't present in the P6200. Just because it's a newer model doesn't automatically mean that it will retain the older features of the previous generation. Producing a unit that only outputs HDMI compliant signals is cheaper, and with HDMI being almost everywhere nowadays anyway, more people are likely to use it now. That's just the way forward into the future. Let composite die already.

It's kinda like how you very rarely see laptops with 25-pin parallel ports, or 9-pin serial ports or VGA ports anymore; it's all USB and HDMI now.

Out with the old, in with the new.
