Output to TV

[The_Unbeliever]

Was going through all the settings on my galaxy S, when I noticed an "output to tv" option.

Will this work on ZA phones? Googling indicates that you need a special cable, where do you get this type of cable (as per this forum : http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s/111876-galaxy-s-tv-out.html)

The Nokia TV out cable works the best. One from the N95, N96 or N900. My collegue has a Galaxy S and it works 100%

AppleTV... oh wait

Sybaritic sell something very similar. You would have to ask them for the wiring diagram as it may not be compatible ...

I don't know - it depends on the type of USB... If it's to share USB devices, then it won't work....

You don't even have to plug it into the USB port on some TVs (as long as it is connected to your network). I just select the video, picture or music file on my Android phone and plays on my TV via wifi.

Pretty cool .
