Jeff, I have tested the Samsung Micro USB to HDMI adapter cable. Verdict: it works amazingly well in mirroring the S4's screen to the television.

Here is a pic of the adapter cable. Unlike the SlimPort, the Samsung adapter requires a separate power source via a USB/Micro USB cable.

To get it to work, turn on the S4's screen mirroring function. It didn't immediately work, but after disconnecting and plugging the adapter back in, the phone found it.

I am impressed with the clarity of the television picture. Here is a pic of a Netflix movie being streamed by the S4 phone and mirrored on the Jensen:

The grandson will be thrilled that we can stream his favorite shows or rent a movie!
