Default Scaling the hdmi mirroring?

I dont have the phone, but if i did, i would want to use it with a lapdock. Obviously, there is no webtop, just hdmi mirroring.

Someone had posted a picture showing that it basically uses the same resolution as the phone, just stretched out.

So my question is, do you think there will be the ability to scale that up to the full resolution?

Good question!!! well i dont knw about a lapdock but when i mirrored it to my TV i think it kept phones native resolution.... it didnt bump it to 1080p and since hdmi mirroring should be same through out... i think it will just keep 720p resolution.

since the resolution of lapdock is 1366x768 pix i think you should be fine with 720p resolution!!!

When I hook mine to my HDTV it does 720p 16:9 flawlessly. When I hook it to my LED monitor 16:9 1600x900 display it defaults to an anoying 1024x768 and it won't let me scale it vertically just horizontally so I get a distorted streched image with lame black bars on top. Does anyone know why or how I can fix this?

In the Display setting for the Atrix HD is an option called Overscan. It bassically allows for scaling the HDMI display when connected via the micro-HDMI port.

Send from my MOTOROLA ATRIX HD on AT&T

yup, the overscan option will pump the hdmi out to ,... 768p resolution ...

At least that's what it is doing on my Atrix 4G lapdock. the Atrix HD is able to fill the screen completely .


edit : yes I'm also stuck with the 3 buttons everywhere except Videos


Atrix HD LTE with EB40 battery mod, Lapdock made for Atrix 4g modded for the HD LTE
