I'd been wondering about this too. Apt-x makes a very noticeable difference so it would be good if it's on board. Hopefully someone in the know will tell us
Nobody know ?
It doesn't look very promising: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33538423&postcount=4

Not shaky, just the usual 'poor' quality composite image, nothing wrong with the 'phone.
The aspect is based on how you use the phone. If you hold it vertically, it will have a weird portrait resolution.
If you hold it landscape, it looks perfect on a widescreen TV.
I'm going to have a full Galaxy S Review up hopefully tonight, I document the feature.
I'm using some old Nokia TV Out cables at home, composite picture quality, but works just fine (no jitters or anything).
Definitely a welcome feature for me!
Why do you need to use some old cables?
Isn't there one provided in the box?

Because it isn't the recommended external video output. Obviously with the SGS being a HD phone outputting to composite isn't exactly going to be the best way of demonstrating the video features, hence the preferred DLNA option.
How is the DLNA feature?
Have any of you tried the DLNA feature with say a PS3 or XBOX? how does it work? is it smooth?
GSMArena noted that on the Galaxy Note :
The 3.5mm audio jack is on top of the Galaxy Note. The Note's secondary microphone (enabling stereo sound recording in videos and noise-suppression in calls ) is also located here.

Can anyone confirm this?
Confirmed. It is however nearly 3/4th of a thumb distance away from that hole.

Thanks for confirming.
I did not understand your remark, can you elaborate?
Can somebody please post a sample 1080p and 720p videos from your GNote with max audio and video settings?
can galaxy note recording stereo voice and video ?

I quote from GSMArena's review:
"Stereo recording will also be appreciated by many - in fact that's the main difference between the Note and the Galaxy S II in the imaging department."
Are there any developers who are considering check what can be done to the HDMI output?
A wishlist:
Proper 16:9 ratio (crop home/back buttons)
Force output mode (720p, 1080i etc.)
Passthrough of digital audio streams (DD, DTS etc)
maybe more but that's what I have in mind right now.
Very thankful for anyone who has the time and interest in implementing this.

Your post has nothing to do with development. So why you ask your questions not in general section? Thats the right place.
I too would love this... The devs of mxplayer are seeing if they can implement the same thing google play movies does for hdmi with the nexus 10
The biggest problem we have is, this isn't a big problem for a lot of people... Most people don't even use the hdmi...
For those of us who do tho it is a huge problem
Sv: Development of HDMI
You are probably right. I just wish Google had implemented these functionalities from the beginning. Now it feels like a half hearted solution. Yeah we have picture sort of but no use for any media show off. Yeah we make a good tablet for movies etc but we skip good support for hdmi output.

No idea... Mostly all I care about is the scaling...
What sucks is that the exynos5 dual supports simultaneous native wqxga res(2560x1600) and 1080p at 60fps through hdmi so ii should be possible...
---------- Post added at 10:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:28 AM ----------
The good news is that Mxplayer will support full screen HDMI res for the nexus 10 the same way google play movies does...
I emailed them awhile back and they has me take some pics of what a video looks like on mxplayer and on Google movies... They just emailed me this morning saying they figured it out and it will be implemented in the next major update
Woohoo!

The N10 HDMI port DOES send audio along with the video. It works well with my Samsung HDTV. The issue is that each HDTV seems to have implemented the HDMI specification inconsistently. So some people get neither audio or video and others video only. Reading in this forum and other places Panasonic HDMI connection are notorious for poor HDMI support of devices. They most often fall in the category of no audio or video support.
As far as I know even with a working HDMI audio connection only stereo is transmited even if the source video has AC3 or DTS 5.1 audio. If you search in this forum you see people requesting that some ROM/Kernel devs add HDMI audio passthru support for the AC3 and DTS audio streams.
I send HDMI to a receiver anyway. I never thought to check but I definitely will be looking this afternoon to see if my receiver (Onkyo brand) supports both the video and audio properly from this tablet. Never had any issues though before with my computer, bluray player (Panasonic brand), or XBox. So I am assuming all will be fine for me.
Is this going to work with the S4? I saw a "Screen Mirroring" option on settings but I'm not sure if it's the same thing as Allshare Cast. Did Samsung change the name or is this a completely different feature?

any news on this?, i also have the dongle and might ne upgrading to the S4 soon.
Tested last night and works fine!
In fact with my rooted S4 it even works without having to use "Triangle Away" whereas on my S3 it would just bomb out.
But still only at 720p!
EDIT: and yes it is now called "Screen Mirroring"

Yes, it's working even better than the S3. Check out the videos: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2255720

Cheers all, although has anyone found out why Samsung are selling this as a 1080p unit where there is nothing 1080p about it.
Allshare Cast hub from S3 is working like a charm on S4. Far Far better then S3. I'm playing games without any lag or pixels on TV screen.
I'm uploading now a prove of it

It does output in 1080p for Galaxy S4. The resolution will be the same of the phone resolution.
If I were to use the dongle with my Galaxy S2 it would output to 480p on the TV.

No it does not! This thread is about the Wireless Cast Dongle, not the hdmi adapter. I have it in front of me now and the TV states the signal is 720p.

i did wonder when he said "the galaxy S2...." - the Galaxy S2 doesnt have widi and so no allsharecast. I'm going to log a call with samsung to find out why they are miss selling this, it appears to have no 1080p connectivity at all.
Here is my video showing Allshare cast on S4
Two questions
1.Does this feature work with the mobile connected directly to the WIFI network(Got a 2012 E8000 TV)? I bought an S4,and I`waiting for it to ship, but I didnt see anything about this dongle being sold with the phone.
2.Does this app allow for the screen mirror to go the opposite direction. Ie I want what the TV is showing, to be sent to the phone. Being in the kitche, or while taking a dump

I know the S2 doesn't have miracast support, that's why I said: "if I WERE to use it on my S2".
Regarding 1080p in this video the guy said it was outputting in Full HD on his TV, so I don't know for sure what's happening.
I ordered my dongle on Amazon and it should arrive in a few days so I can test it.

For those of you using the stock video app and allshare dongle - the default output in the video app is 720p. You can change this to 1080p in the settings

Are you referring to the wireless dongle? If so then, from memory, it does not matter what you set the output to in the video app the cast will still only output at 720p unless things have changed.

With you there! But even the 3S outputs at 1080p with the wired dongle so it is capable of doing it, just perhaps not over the air.
Hello there...
I bought the allshare cast hub a few days ago. The connection between the my Galaxy S4 and the hub works well, but it's a bit laggy. Now I've found an APP (AllShare Cast Hub APP), which allows to update the firmware from LF21 to LJ01. The problem is that this APP doesn't work with the Galaxy S4. It seems that it's only available for the S3.
How can I update the firmware without a S3?
Thanks...

If you are rooted viper4Android is really good. I'm using it with over ear headphones and have awesome sound quality. It also works for speaker and external sound systems.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.n7mobile.nplayer
10 band equalizer, sounds perfect on my AKG headphones.
As for the speaker quality, no app is ever going to solve the issue of a metal speaker in a plastic miniature container. That's what we invented external portable speakers for.
