Video out?

[yetep]

Does it have it?
Some sites say the specs do, some don't mention it!

Can't get a definitive answer on that one!

Also, if it does : where can I get a cable?

Thanks guys!

I haven't tried myself, but the iPhone and iPod video do it through the headphones socket. you can get a cable that takes this and makes it a yellow RCA cable. you could try one of them?

Interesting question.
But where are settings for video output?

 

[im_iceman]

I'd be interested if anyone can prove this? Re-settings...if this is possible then there could be 2 options.. 1. you will only see the settings when it's in "video out" mode.. or it's auto detected and there are no additional settings (as per audio output... )!

i'm really hoping for this but i'm guessing SE would advertise it to their benefit, and afaik they didn't so my hopes are kept rather low...

I've had a guy telling me that he can use TV out on his X10, using a microUSB-3.5mm adapter and the TV out cable from an N900.

i haven't been able to find an adapter that has the extra connector for TV out to try it.

I've got a 3.5mm jack going to red/white audio connectors. If I put one into the video part of the tv wil it play video or is it down to how its wired in?

For video there should be red, white and yellow.

I think X2 uses the 3.5 mm port for video out, and they didn't advertise that.

 

[sidneylopsides]

Yeah, they did. There's a button for it on the keyboard too.

I'm wondering if it has the hardware, but the options aren't there yet, and they might be added along with the HD video recording update.

 

[im_iceman]

well it definitely doesn't work at the moment.. just tested it. I have a video and mono audio cable (Yellow and Black).. and also a video with stereo audio cable (Red, white and Yellow)

 

[sidneylopsides]

did you try via the jack or with a 3.5mm adapter?

 

[im_iceman]

directly via the jack.. cable was 3.5mm "headphone" style at one end.. and phono at the other.

 

[sidneylopsides]

I tried that with a cable from an N900, doesnt work.

Still trying to find a micro usb to 3.5mm with video.

It seems there are some out there for LG and HTC, it's just getting hold of one to test it!

Hmmm this is interesting..

Just in case... Did you try testing with the Red or White as the video? Some companies have their own way of wiring things so that you have to buy their cables. Most people don't think of just swapping the colours around to get it to work and just fork out for the new cable.

There is a tv-out cable for the droid incredible:

I wonder if this would also work on the X10 and when it will be available.

Mod edit: not (yet) accessories related, moved to general

I just tried my Sony Mini-DV Camcorder cable, and it does not work, the camcorder cable goes from 3.5mm to red/white/yellow
