I've tried getting this to sync to my pc with hdmi out, works on my other LED hdtv but it does not work at all with this projector, what gives?

When I first set up my projector I used an inferior 35' HDMI cable and I had this problem with some components in my system. For instance, the DVD player would sync fine but the bluray would not, or if and when it did work it had a lot of speckles. If I used a shorter cable it would work fine. I upgraded my cable run with a higher quality cable and now it syncs every time. However, I do notice when switching components through the HDMI switcher in my receiver that some still take longer than others for the projector to connect and sync. So, I suspect it has more to do with the individual component's HDMI output power than any fault with the projector.

Has anyone tried something like this (click me)? I don't have this projector yet, considering purchasing, but I do own a scan converter of the type in the link, and have gotten better than satisfactory results hooking up VGA out of my Dell XPS1640 to RCA inputs on other projectors and on TVs.

Yes. I tried it but you need to try it out with your projector first. Mine worked with certain projectors only.

Yes and no. I'll send you this thing for free because I never used it. Email me. Roadrunnerwes@gmail.com I bought a dell and it did not work. I tried sending it back it was just as much to send it back then I payed for it. Just make sure you have holes in the projector under it to make sure something can be screwed into as a brace.( Bolt holes)

Sounds like a defective cable. I bought a micro hdmi to hdmi cable and it works great. Not so well with a micro hdmi adapter. If it doesn't work with another cable and/or the VGA cable, then the unit is probably defective.

Try the pattern button on the remote. If it is blue and white then your projector has color and you need to check out your input. If it is black and white send it back.

I have the same projector and it works just fine with a source from either a media player, computer, android tablet or bluray player. It can also switch 2D to 3D. Its an efficient compact converter. You can also power it directly from the usb port in the projector. The connector is not supplied. I used one fromthose old power pack connectors.

Did you try to unplug the HDMI cable? If you switch input source or bring up the menu, does this show the overlay screen with the correct colors? Otherwise search for this at the internet.

once you have the basic connect as input video ( yellow cable) and audio ( red and white) for audio on the projector that should work fine for you , unless the projector need some unique setting/features

I can tell you the problem I had and maybe that will help you decide. I had an HTPC going through a home theater receiver to a projector. Every time, I switched of the receiver or switched from HDMI input to another input, I lost HDMI audio and had to reboot my computer. The GENFEN HDMI detective fixed this problem. What it does is store the EDID information from the target system (i.e. the receiver) and stores it in the detective. Not sure if that's an exact fit for you but could be.

There is an big issue with compatibility with certain Bluray Players: it seems to me that on a lot of them, you don't have shadow detail. My cheap Toshiba Bluray player was exactly like this. Sadly there is no way to fix it. there are no settings to change it. The only thing that works 100% sure is use a laptop or PC to power it. But this has nothing to do with the projector itself, just some confusion on the basis of HDMI and how bluray player and projector don't seem to work together as they should.

Do you know the connection type on the digital projector? It should be either DVI, VGA, or HDMI. You can find them by searching for the type of adapter "to Mini DisplayPort" on Amazon.

thank you very much. I ordered the remote control....do you know how I sync it with the projector?

Man, I wish I could help. I know mine automatically turns off when I turn off my LED TV so they are somehow synced already. I never did anything special when I set it up. I have a Samsung TV. I don't know if that makes any difference at all. I'm also using all HDMI. I'm thinking maybe it's the configuration of how your system is set up? Please do update when you figure it out as I'm getting ready to purchase a new TV to hook up with mine and I might just have the same trouble.

Didn't work for me. Need to figure out if your projector is full 3d or pc only.
