Hi, I installed SwitchRoot and docked it. But the Picture on my FullHD TV is very pixelated. Is it because the switch runs 720p in portable mode?
My TV reports the Resolution as 1920x1080 60hz.
Is there a way to force it display a sharp 1920x1080 image without pixelation when docked ?

I have the same issue, but you are clearly in the wrong device section.

I encoded a video that came in 1920x800 down to 1267x528 (the closest to 1280x720 for that ratio) and it won't play in landscape. It tries to play it in portrait and is absurdly small. Videos on youtube rotate fine to fill up the screen, but when I turn the phone sideways it stays in portrait mode.
Is there a setting somewhere I have to hit to allow the 'Videos' app to rotate? Do any other video players other than "Videos" and "Youtube" take up the entire screen, including the buttons?
Is there a way to automatically switch to super resolution mode when zooming? I mean, just like taking a high resolution photo and crop it.Digital zoom on normal photo is terrible.

superesolution is just more pictures made in different zones, making zoom will change nothing
I want to watch YouTube videos from my 18.5:9 phone on my 16:9 (non-smart) TV. When I connect the phone with a standard USB-C to HDMI adapter, it mirrors the screen on the external display, but it zooms out so that the 18.5:9 aspect ratio is preserved, with black bars on the sides (portrait) or top and bottom (landscape) filling the empty space. When I watch a video in full screen on YouTube, the screen is still mirrored in the 18.5:9 ratio. When it's in landscape, that means there are black bars on the sides on the phone's display (because 18.5 is "wider" than 16), but on the external display, it means there are black bars on ALL sides!
Is there a way to either...
Make YouTube zoom onto the video so that it actually fills the 16:9 display properly...
or...
Make the S9 (presumably S8 is the same) output its display as 16:9 natively? EDIT: to clarify, can you force it to crop down to 16:9 on the actual internal display, so that when it mirrors to the external display, they're both in 16:9?
As one possible example of this working properly, VLC will automatically go into some sort of screen-casting mode when connected via HDMI, where the phone's built-in display only shows playback controls, while the external display shows the video, properly fit to the external display with no apparent cropping or zooming. (when the source video is 16:9, at least!)
Tried using YouTube Vanced instead of the original YT app?

Didn't work, unfortunately.
There are settings to ignore screen resolution in Vanced
Those just seem to allow the phone to output higher resolutions than the internal display is capable of; it doesn't actually change the aspect ratio of the output display...
As we all know this phone has an aspect ratio of 2.22:1 and we can't watch in this full resolution because most videos and ganes are in 16:9 ratio and some in 2:1 which leaves some black bars on the ends. What I would like to ask is if there is anyway we could fully utilise the display and watch or play in the entire screen resolution or in the 2.22:1 ratio. Edit viewing ratio manually in youtube netflix etc.. and some games
Well what I do sometimes is expand it manually on my N10+.
With different aspect ratios sometimes you need to adapt. At least use a browser that keeps the end bars black. The Samsung browser is my primary vid viewer.
I have a new Philips 58PUS8536/12, running the latest firmware (001.001.233.026).
What I see is that it's resolution does not change to 2160P no matter the content I play:
- Netflix 4K HDR
- Youtube 2160P HDR
- Kodi 4K HDR (hitting Z key during playback shows the current resolution at [email protected])
- PC set resolution at [email protected], image displayed but still panel remains at 1080p.
While the content is being played back I run adb shell wm size and it returns "Physical size: 1920x1080".
Nor can I find in the TV settings (or Android settings) an option to change the resolution.
I see some older Philips TVs running Android where you can easily select the resolution in the settings.
What is going on here? Why is it not switching to UHD?
