Re: Video Out - what can it do?

There is unfortunately some truth to this, and one of the biggest hurdles is that Coreplayer's QTv mode doesn't work with the TV cable. So you need to find something that will play well in Directdraw mode or another player. It is indeed somewhat difficult to keep the full 640x resolution, but it can be done if you experiment a bit with encoding and/or accept a slight performance hit from full fps.

For the OP: The limitations you speak of are related to the fact that TV-out forces landscape mode. So the Weather screen of TF3D would not be shown in landscape. Other than that, anything the phone displays and outputs via audio is sent to the TV.
