So I found this on ebay and it claims to work with SGS3.

Has anyone got this one yet? I wonder if it will stream movies in Full HD mode from SGS3 to my TV.
They'll stream through DLNA maybe, but the whole point of the Media link is to mirror your device, which can only be done in the One S and X.

The Video for NBA Gametime is not working properly for those that wanted to see live games and video........I can now give them 5 stars instead of the 1 star I gave them before.
Might want to change that to.. "The Video for NBA Gametime is now working properly"
Most people are aware of this by just reading the app reviews

Using an mhl cable and it works great through HDMI. Sling player and netflix work awesome too. Hook up a bluetooth mouse and it is just like a mini PC.
hello!
what resolution can I expect to get when connecting to an external display? Tegra 3 itself shouldn't have any problems with 1080p via MHL should it? But the question is if it will work. Maybe not with stock rom and sense but will it even be possible for a dev to make a rom further on where you can get anything else than mirroring at 720p?
this is the first phone that I think is powerful enough to replace my desktop computer (I don't do much more than internet and watching movies). But 720 doesn't give much work area.

This article states "...the Media Link HD does 1080p over 802.11n to any HDMI-equipped TV, instead of just 720p, and promises to mirror games as well as videos, photos and music..."

This youtube video shows it off from about 50s into the video.
Yea I saw that on engadget, and i've probably seen every hands on video on youtube, it's awesome! But I think the media link will be expensive and I'd rather use an MHL adapter for a desktop solution. I wonder how the media link will work for say browsing.
Nvidias own tegra 3 specs says 1920x1080 via hdmi, but on wikipedia it says up to 2560×1600, though not output specified.
ah ok sorry I miss understood

Seems to be £80 for the Media Link and £28 for the cable so a fair difference but worth it imo not to have the wire across the room but then the cable is more portable...
I guess for browsing it will just mirror what's on the screen. Would be cool if you could use the phone as a track pad / keyboard, with the browser window on the TV...
2 more weeks and we should know more...
i've looked in the TF prime forum where someone asked the same question but with a prime instead of one x but noone could give a straight answer.
maybe that's something to contact nvidia for, making them provide a driver for devs that can bypass the device screen and only output to external with different resolution. I don't know how ICS really works but seeing it's for both phones and tablets now the scaling must work differently right? Acer made a demo tablet called iconia tab A700 and it has 1080.
I'll have to wait 6 weeks for mine.
I might get the media link for my tv later. The trackpad idea would be really cool, then you'd only need a bt keyboard. I think asus had a concept demo where you had a laptop dock and put the phone where a trackpad normally is. But I wonder if you'd notice the input lag compared to a normal track pad.

What features would be available over normal DLNA? Mirroring or anything like that? Or do we have to have the media link thing?
Hi, I'm a bit confused here to what my options are regarding the all share dongle and I'm wondering if there's an all in one solution for me here... I have a Samsung 530U3B laptop with Intel WiDi built in, the S3 will have Wifi direct and wireless display capabilities. I'd like to be able to mirror my S3 onto my monitor to play games etc and stream videos, though the BBC iplayer app on android is pretty poor and there's no on demand TV really, so it would be nice to stream iplayer on my laptop to the monitor wirelessly. Is there an all in one solution for me? Or would I need to buy a separate dongle for the S3 and my Samsung laptop?
Many thanks

This is a question you will only get an answer after the device released and people are able to mess with both
Think we may get Miracast support via unofficial way such as CM/AOKP?
GNex has WiFi Direct and supports dual band WiFi, so i can't see why only N4/S3 have it. hTC has media link which is basically miracast so do you guys know of a way to add it to the GNex? Maybe Samsung AllShare Cast?
The Galaxy Nexus is not listed in supported devices on wi-fi.org though.
thats why i said unofficial way. But regardless the US SGS3 s not on the list or the Note 2 or the HTC one S/X and we all know they are able to mirror the screen on to the TV. sure maybe not miracast but at least they are still able to do it. Why would this stop the GNex?
Is DLNA not sufficient for streaming? Or are you only interested in mirroring?

There is no mirroring on gnex (right now).
Hi
Does anyone know if it is possible to connect the s4 mini to hdtv by mhl→hdmi adapter in the same way that you can on the s4.
I have bought an adapter suitable for the s4 but doesn't seem to work with my hdtv via hdmi.
Someone please help?
Thanks

Is it a hardware limitation, or something we can work around?
No official word on it. The latest kernel updates haven't brought any mhl or otg functionality to the phone.
Perhaps a developer could look into this!
4 months down the line - does anyone know any different to this?
Tried using my MHL to HDMI the other day and didn't work - was hoping there is some kind of work around by now?
Downloaded a few films from the Samsung Hub and was hoping to watch them on something a bit bigger than my phone! Tried the DLNA option but it didn't find my downloaded videos (only videos done with the camera). Guessing this is some kind of DRM restriction?

Actually there is a way but you should by an AllShare Dongle http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Wi-...id=1386596265&sr=8-2&keywords=AllShare+Note+3
The other way is to have a Samsung tv which support Screen Cast or Screen Share which will work with our phone.
I also prefer the MHL way but until now there is no info if this will ever work.

If you have a new Samsung TV which support Screen Share you are good to go also other devices which support Miracast should be also compatable you could see more about Miracast here:
