Has anyone experienced issues connecting the SC-65 to a Windows based HTPC? It works on hdmi to my plasma but nothing on the sc-65.

I've not any problems on the SC-68. Computer is running Windows 8.1. Handshake takes a bit, like 15 seconds or more sometimes. Try a different HDMI input and see what happens. If that doesn't work then try a different HDMI cable.

I was able to get it to work on GTX 260, but power cycling the computer has a 50/50 chance of it not working... So we would leave the htpc running 24/7. Getting it working again was a combination of luck and driver installs and plugging unplugging.

I am currently using S-Video to connect my pc to this plasma. While this works, the picture could be better. Text is pretty blurry. I would love to find a way to hook up with a component cable. I have a NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE card in my computer with VGA and S-Video output. Any suggestions? Please help!

I have been able to make it work using the following:EnjoyGadgets EGVGARCA Generic PC to TV/VGA to RCA Converter and Lenovo VGA Adapter to TV S-Video RCA Out Cable for PC Video and3M MP 160/180 Pocket Projector Composite Cable The last one was the hardest to find, but if you can find it this combo will work. It was not as simple as it was intended, and I had several conversations with 3M people about the fact that they made lots more projectors than they did the cables to serve them, but to no avail. One person did suggest that I take it to an electronics repair place and see if they can wire an adapter directly into it. Good luck!

Have not had that issue. I have an issue with a 3D TV where the HDMI handshake on the TV end is problematic. It's mainly an annoyance as I can either delay turning on the cable box until the TV is fully up or just turn the cable box off and back on. Other than that it works fine. I would suggest trying another HDMI input device if you can for a test to eliminate any issues with your current device and try a different cable for the input. If you have more than one output device connected start with just a single output device until you have it working solidly. Also make sure that the power adapter if firmly plugged in. If the power LED also comes and goes then it might be power related. If you have another power adapter with the same plug size and polarity you might try that just to eliminate any power issues. The vendor was very responsive (as was Amazon's tech support) with troubleshooting my HDMI handshake issue so try them too.

I have a compatibility issue, but not HDD-related. Apparently the 8300HD is NOT HDMI-CEC compliant, so turning it ON does NOT turn on my new Philips 55PFL4706. However all my other accessories with HDMI outputs DO turn ON the set. Is this a problem with the 8300HD, or am I missing some setting? Thanks!

Possibly a bad CPU but could also be a bad motherboard on the DS81. On my PC I use the HDMI output and when I hooked up the cable the video worked fine with no extra setup steps. I have not tested the DVI output.

Hey my Friend, Thanks for your imput. Just want to get a clear understanding about HDMI and Composite connection differences. My HDTV is 3 years old with composite only connection. Will HD DVD give me 1080i reception capabilty. I now have the Dish 622 reciever and get HD quality no problem. Simply put does the Toshiba HD-A1 HDDVD player have composite connections along with HDMI. Hope I've made myself clear enough. Thanks Much ... RD

Nope not the one. I'm waiting for a solid state True Full HD (1920x1080) 30p solution. I couldn't care less about HDDVD BlueRay compatibility. I'll be playing the files from HDD of HTPC. I'm considering Sanyo VPC-HD2 as interim camera.

Just got the unit. I used it with my Acer k132. HDMI 3D works great. I also used an HDMI to VGA adapter but got nothing. The message on the projector is "signal not supported". I hope that helps.

Yes, I had trouble. Bought one to use on a feature, converting the SDI signal from our BMCC 2.5K to HDMI for video village. It worked for just a few days, but then wouldn't convert the signal anymore. I remember wiggling wires, and randomly the signal would come through, but from that day forward it never worked again. I was disappointed it only lasted a few days before "breaking" or whatever happened. I returned it for a refund after I returned home from the shoot.

To be honest, I was not able to get the adapter running. I use an Onkyo Receiver and an HP laptop. Both companies 1st line support replied to my question that it is very difficult to establish the interface between Displayport and HDMI. And they are right, I checked out 4 different adapters and none was working.

You my have to find a updated driver I'm using the one it came with and it works great its hooked up to my Sharp 60inch TV. Works fine with gaming and even better with movies.

I am running the cable straight from my desktop PC across the room to my Sony flat screen w/o a booster. I have not experienced any problems thus far. Picture is clear, bright, and w/o degradation. I'm guessing that equipment types may be a source of any reported problems; For what it's worth, I am using a PNY NVIDIA GeForce GT 630 Graphics card.
