Help question about LG Revolution HDMI port/output?

I'm looking to possibly get an LG Revolution. I see that it has an HDMI port. I was looking to then be able to output its NETFLIX and/or personal videos to my HDTV. I just assumed it was able to, but after looking at a manual, not 100% sure if it can.

Manual seems to state that "you can only view user generated content,
which includes your photos and videos.
" Does this mean I can't output its Netflix app to my HDTV? I'm also seeing that in order to do something like this, I might need to have something called "HDMI mirroring". Is this what is really needed? If so, does the Revolution have "HDMI mirroring"?

Finally, does this phone do any kind of DNLA streaming? I have a Sony TV that is DNLA compatible so was hoping maybe I could send video to it from the Revoltion (if possible).
 
You can use it via HDMI for Netflix without a problem...it's what I do whenever we go RVing.

It also does the DNLA streaming, but that is only for your own content (it won't do Netflix that way). I've only used this to try it as I don't have any real need for it.
