MICRO USB TO HDMI WILL STREAM N7 to tv?

**Nychotxxx** · 01-20-2013, 08:15 PM

There is a great app called tv portal that streams tons of movieS and tv shows on the n7. Someone writing a review of it claimed they used a micro USB to hdmi to stream to hd tv. Is this possible?

It is possible with other devices, and probably the reviewer was talking about (or thinking about) another device when discussing it. However, the N7 does not support the feature so it is not possible with the N7.

No. There are no wired methods of getting video out of a N7 onto another screen.

Micro usb cable to usb on my laptop allows me play movies etc on my laptop screen from my Nexus. Haven't tried it to a TV, but if the usb TV connection allows you to search the Nexus it could work.

accepted that is not HDMI

That is different because you aren't streaming the video from the Nexus 7 in the manner we are talking about. Attaching an N7 full of videos to a computer via USB and accessing the video files is no different than attaching a 32GB flash drive to a computer and playing the videos there.
