Video output through headphone jack

Is there a way to play videos from the epic to a tv screen or monitor through the headphone jack, using vga cables? I have an adapter. I played a movie on my phone and tried running it to my tv, and my tv didnt pickup any signal from my phone.

This is always such a sore spot for me. Pre release I noted the 9000 doing this in a youtube and it pushed me over the edge. Litterally vid out was the only feature missing... n then there was that eternal "we are almost there" thread that kept the coals of feature desire long burning...then fizzle with no pop. On the same topic the usb to hdmi adapter also no workie. Sheeeeiiiittt toook em a lifetime to get the soujnd redirected on the oem dock accessory.
Dlna is such a loose standard that everyone does it different....for such a multimedia phone I still think there is not a great solution for this.

[Q] HDMI MHL adapter won't show Netflix full screen on TV

I've done a lot of searches and found a lot of people have the same problem, but I haven't been able to find a fix. I just got the MHL adapter, YouTube works great, the phone in landscape works great, but when I open Netflix and try to watch a movie, the sides of the screen get cut off like I'm trying to watch a normal standard definition channel or something. Is there any work around to make it show in widescreen on the tv? I mean, it shows in widescreen on the phone, why doesn't it on the tv?

Use this app to force rotation

It does it on both the stock4.0.4 and cm9. Its not the rotation that's the problem, it rotates fine, Netflix is just isn't showing up as widescreen on the TV.

Yeah, I'm finding a lot of people with mhl not working, I'm not finding any solutions on Netflix not showing up as widescreen. If I'm missing something and I'm completely retarded, I'm sorry, but if you have a link to the solution, that would be awesome.
Um are u sure your adapter is working

Everything else is working fine. YouTube comes in widescreen , the phone in landscape comes in widescreen. When you're waiting for the movie to play, the big red screen that says netflix is widescreen . It's just the movie that ends up not widescreen. Like I said, I've seen lots of people with the same problem, I just haven't been able to find a solution.

Hi, I have been looking for a possible solution for this issue as well. Actually, prior to ICS, I was getting full wide screen with mhl-hdmi out (to TV) with netflix. I have always thought the netflix upgrade messed up the output, but now I'm starting to think it may be related to the upgraded ROM.
Actually, I believe the issue is that we are not getting a mirror of the screen because subtitles also don't show up on the TV.
I'm now on JB, the issue persists.
I have the sane problem running Netflix on galaxy smartdock with note 2, everything runs fullscreen except Netflix its super annoying just got newest update, no change, frustrating

Well... I was looking for this issue before I got the mhl because One description of mhl-adaptor says there was a license Problem with netflix... will give Update when it was delivered.

Can't comment on hulu, but the Netflix play button issue is something that has been reported by many on the google play store across a number of devices. As previously mentioned, clearing the app data works, at least temporarily. I've had to do this twice since I got my device. This is on stock rom.

Sure as long ad you are on a touchwiz rom and have the proper adapters it works fine.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yes like he said above only available if you use a touchwiz rom and have an mhl adapter(about 15 dollars on amazon) and an hdmi cable and use your power cord and a hdmi capable tv youll be set
