Black bars on TV when using MHL adaptor and google play movies

I have tried the Z2 tablet using a sony MHL IM750 adapter with different TVs and monitors and it is always the same the black bars are on the screen at the side of the mirror on the TV. Using my old galaxy nexus phone with the MHL adapter I do not get this problem it fills the screen fully.
Also if I try to mirror google play movies through the tablet with the MHL adapter I get an message that it is not secure and it does not allow it to happen. Yet when I do the same through miracast with my LG TV it works! seems a little odd but something to do with HDCP I guess. If I mirror google play movies through my nexus phone on  a tv it works fine.
ILooking at a past post I believe that the lack of full screen mirroring was a problem with the tablet z that got rectified by a firmware update lets hope the same happen for the tablet z2.

I used google and found something in the sony z tablet forum. 
I think its a problem with the solution and you have to change mhl settings but i cant find a way to change.
Here is the answer i found

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.In the update to Android 4.3 it's possible to adjust the video output size for MHL. From the notification bar you can select MHL settings and then video output size. If set to 100% i have no black bars when testing here.
Looks like a general problem with tablets that have a higher solution than 1080
Should be possible to change the output format to 1080 
It would be nice, if i get an answer so i can understand whats the problem and if there will be a way to fix it.
Sorry for my bad english

  • In Firefox 3.6.10 I was able to go forward and backwards between pages without the page defaulting to the top of the page. Is there any way to prevent the page from automatically moving to the top when using the forwards and back buttons in Firefox Four?

    I like to be able to navigate backwards and forwards without having to scroll down and find where I was previously. In Firefox Four, when using the forwards and back buttons, the page will automatically return to the top of the page. Is there any way to change this setting in Firefox Four to prevent it from doing that?

    Thanks for the response. No Time Machine, but I probably have a backup from a few months ago on an external hard drive. :/ I guess it'd have useful history, but not if it overwrote the last 3 months or so of Awesome Bar, that might not be so great.

    If the previous Safari suggestion doesn't work try the following:
    In Finder, go to Macintosh HD/Library/Internet Plug-ins and move AdobePDFViewerNPAPI.plugin to the Disabled Plug-ins Folder.  Restart Safari.  If this works you may just want to delete that FUBAR plug-in.
    Thanks.  This was the solution for me.

  • Performance issues when using Smart View and Excel 2010

    Hello, we are experiencing very slow retrieval times when using Smart View and Excel 2010. Currently on v.11.1.3.00 and moved over from Excel 2003 in the last quarter. The same spreadsheets in 2010 (recreated) are running much slower than they used to in 2003 and I was wondering if anyone else out there has experienced similar problems?
    It looks like there is some background caching going on as when you copy and paste the contents into a new file and retrieve it is better.....initially. The size of the files are generally less than 2mb and there aren't an expecially large number of subcubes requested so I am at a loss to explain or alleviate the issues.
    Any advice / tips on how to optimise the performance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Hi Nick,
    Office 2010 (32 bit) only is supported.

  • "Could not complete scan" error when using Windows Fax and Scan

    "Could not complete scan" error when using Windows Fax and Scan with a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600 Plus All-In-One network printer.
    Printing is fine.
    When using the HP Scan application, get the error "Scanner communication cannot be established".
    When scanning from the printer itself it fails with the same message. In addition the printer panel displays the error:
    "The scan could not be completed due to one or more of the following issues:
    Connection to the computer is lost
    The scanner is in use
    OCR application is not installed"
    My PC is a HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF 64bit, with ethernet cable to the router and ethernet cable to the printer
    Originally ran Windows 8.0; recently upgraded to Windows 8.1.
    Older separate Netgear router and modem was replaced with a newer Netgear Router/Modem, but both experienced the same problem.
    There was no problem with the original Windows 8.0 configuration and only after upgrading to 8.1 did the problem emerge.
    On my home netowrk I have an HP ProBook 6550b running Windows 7 sp1 that uses wireless to get to the Router, and it has no problem with scanning.
    I have followed the recommendations of a number of articles relating to this issue (including: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?cc=us&​lc=en&docname=c02915410&product=4323659#N94), but there has been no change in behaviour.
    The printer has a static IP address;
    Power settings have been adjusted to Never for Turn off Hard Disk; Sleep and Hybrid Sleep.
    Scanning has been tested with all firewalls and antivirus turned off and in Selective Startup.
    The printer has been plugged directly into the power socket.
    With all these settings the Windows 8.1 cannot scan while the Windows 7 laptop with wireless to the router has no problems.
    Appreciate any insights into this problem.
    I can only surmise that the problem is a compatibility problem between the 8600 Printer and Windows 8.1.
    Any ideas?
    regards,
    Motorbike

    You can determine if there is compatiblity between the printer and PC by checking the Windows 8.1 hardware compatibility list. I have done that and it is shown to be fully compatible.  If the driver you installed before was only the basic driver,it would explain the lack of scan and copy functionality.
    Download and install the Windows 8.1 full feature driver and software on the HP Compaq Pro 6300 SFF 64bit PC .

  • If i dont use the display when using the GPS and only listen to the voice instructions can that also makes the iphone overheat even if you dont use the display

    because when i use the gps app in my iphone 4s in the car my iphone gets overheat so
    if i dont use the display when using the GPS and only listen to the voice instructions can that also makes the iphone overheat even if you dont use the display
    will that help?

    When you use your GPS does your iPhone get hot enough to shutdown?  The reason I ask is that I have run my GPS app with the screen brightness set to near max connected to power for hours.  My iPhone got hot, but didn't shutdown.

  • I'm trying to read some XML data from temperature logger over my network. I'm using LabView version 2009 sp1. I'm using the URL Get Document Vi. It works fine when using Internet sites like google or foxnews etc...

    I'm trying to read some XML data from temperature logger over my network.  I'm using LabView version 2009 sp1.  I'm using the URL Get Document Vi.  It works fine when using Internet sites like google or foxnews etc...
    When I use it with my temperature logger most of the time I get an Error 66...but some times it does work and actually retrieves the document. 
    I can use the same address "http://172.22.21.68/XMLfeed.rb" (Internet Explorer or Google Chrome) in my browser and get a response every time.  When accessing from my browser the server in the temperature logger does take around 6 seconds to respond, but it does respond every time. 
    Is the URL Get Document Vi exceeding a timeout?  If so, where can I set it to wait longer?

    It looks like the TCP Buffered Read has a 2.5 sec timeout, I believe that is where I had trouble as well.  Try creating your own URL Get HTTP Doc vi in which you call URL Get Document in normal mode, with an appropriate number of characters to fetch (enough characters so that you capture all the important data in the XML file).
