I think the best way is via Apple TV - then you can mirror everything wirelessly. Besides the iPhone 5 has a different lightning connector - so old cables won't work.

To expand on the above, the Lightning to 30 pin adapters don't support video output so if you're using a 30 pin video out cable with an adapter it won't work.
Apple do Lightning to HDMI and Lightning to VGA adapters for connecting the newer devices to an external display. http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MD...tal-av-adapter http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MD...to-vga-adapter |

Apple supports its whole ecosystem(buy Apple TV for Airplay) so they removed the connections in the iPhone 5.
DLNA is the main standard so if you have a DLNA device then you can buy an app that should also work. However I thought it still worked with the 4s that still has video out through the older non lightning 30 pin connector. |

If they removed the connections, how come you can buy a lighting to hdmi cable
![]() Yet at £40 the other same cost choice might be a cheap HDMI Android TV c/w DLNA. |

I must have misread on it then.
Yet at £40 the other same cost choice might be a cheap HDMI Android TV c/w DLNA. £39 for the official one but can be bought for half the price at various other places. |

I didn't think apple had licenced the lighting connector to anyone yet, although I see a few docks appearing so things might have changed.
But there will be soon. |
