Tv out for xbmc on ipad

iDancer Wrote:some devs out there who want to code the fullscreen option on ipad2 mirroring while using xbmc and playing movies (especially 720p and 1080p)? would be really nice since XBMC can play these movies on the ipad2 screen but not with the "right" resolution since ipad2 isnt that big as a full hd tv!

Read the thread. We have devs who want to do this/ are interested in trying, but it's a very big task to get right (remember, XBMC is not a normal iOS application). It will just take time, assuming it's feasible.

I really don't know what you all mean with tv-out.

PS: theres still a lot of work to do (cleaning up the code, hiding the flicker by smooth transition, making the idevice a touchpad while tvout is active for controlling the mouse).

Little update. I think this is what it will look like then (so i consider my work complete for now). So basically xbmc can be controlled from the iDevice when switched to tvout.

ipod (i know the aspect is b0rked on video - i forgot to set resolution to 720p ... it was 1024x768 aka 4:3):

I was looking for this option as well. But I wasn't clear - is there a mirroring option from ipad2 to Apple TV? I'd be happy with that, but couldn't find a way.

this tvout patch will also add the ability to mirror xbmc from ipad2 to an external screen with atv2 (some sort of tvout over the air). But you mean mirror anything else into xbmc running on atv2 right? Nope then this is an unrelated feature where we don't have a solution near by.

I just want to say that this is an awesome work, that i've been waiting from the beginning of the IOS dev of xbmc!
I was looking at the raspberry pi progress but now.... As i've ot several idevice at home ... I can't wait.
Can we have an eta? Or something to give us hope and the strength to wait Wink
