PMID701C TV Out

[SingleDad]

Helpless, PRB, good to know! I've been afraid to upgrade for fear of losing that functionality!

Too bad Polaroid went out of business-I'm falling in love with this tablet :-)

Polaroid went out of business long ago and just sold the name and rights. The Polaroid name will live on with S.T. or whoever else buys the rights to it I suppose.

I just updated my 701c to the ST ICS upgrade and I can use the tv out with no problem. So yes the upgraded ics does do tv out if you have the port.

Thanks for sharing. I had a hunch it didn't REALLY kill the TV out function, but since I didn't have a cable to test I was waiting for someone to confirm.

Right...

I bought the following for $5.00 and it works well. I guess it's originally for INOi or Argosy HDD Media Player. I had to swap the plugs around once to get it right and unfortunately I'm not at home to see where each went.

I've run into two issues, neither of which I believe is a result of the cable:

The first is a bright green line that runs along the left and top edge of the output. I haven't adjusted the TV settings or anything to try to get rid of it, so perhaps that would help.

The other is that when I connected a 3.5mm male to red/white RCA cable to carry audio, the internal speaker did not turn off and the slight delay in transmission caused a very irritating "echo" effect.

Has anyone run into these issues?

I too ran into the echo effect caused by the PMID 701i speaker not turning off when connected to the TV. Anybody find a fix for this yet?
