I think the picture really looks better if taken with a still pic camera with some time exposure.

i blame the camcorder for dull colours :ermm:
All right :) I still haven't installed BT again so haven't seen the vid. Are you happy with the results? I haven't seen a very high quality store bought projector yet (unless you rate it by price :lol: ). Good job.

These pics are all from digital non-HD cable, run on s-video. The picture looks great with progressive scan dvds and component cables, or xbox/ps2 with component cables. You do have to buy a separate adapter for component in, but it was cheap. You can see it dangling from the back of the projector in the last pic. I'm not using a screen right now, just the blank wall. I have one, but at only 90", it's a little too small for the room
That's a nice projector. But I can't help think of 3 things..... The screen seems kinda small (the DYI's are running 10" diagonal), how long till you gotta spring for a $200 + bulb? and more importantly, are you gonna have the "cool" factor of having made it yourself? :P
Widescreen? 1280 x 1024 isn't widescreen. :blink:Quote:
