Can I use this to project videos I watch on my iphone netflix app?

Yes. Basically whatever you watch on the screen, gets projected. However, the unit is an older design and fairly low resolution. Ok in a very dark room but not very bright either. There are newer units that may improve upon this unit.

That would depend on your phone and the connecting cables that you have. If you have an apple iPhone, no, unless you performed a jailbreak and even then it will be difficult. This particular product has several inputs, I would suggest you check with your phone manufacturer to find out if you would be able find a cable that would allow you to output to the projector.

I am not aware of a 'Netflix app' or a generalized streaming app, but I have had success watching Netflix on a browser.

No it does not, it is audio only. Similarly this will not natively stream Netflix The 2800 streams video but has no airplay so no luck there either.

I haven't tried that feature but games and apps can be played on there like Netflix and Youtube, so I'm sure you can......sorry I couldn't give you a solid yes or no

This projector plays videos so you can download any video player on the App Store. The projector plays utube videos also. It projects Keynote which is a Mac product similar to PowerPoint so it probably projects PowerPoint also. Essentially it projects videos, movies, utube, etc

I have only had success making this feature work on TV's with Component Video In capabilities. If you have the right inputs on your TV and still have no luck you might try undocking and redocking the device you are trying to stream the video from. I have only used my iPhone 4S on mine. Sometimes I have to undock and redock to make it work. If you are using an iPhone, you should see an indicator on the phone screen indicating that it is sending video to your TV... if you don't see this, try undocking and redocking. Also, some iPhone video apps aren't compatible.

No, only the air play app on iPhone will work. I tried to use amazon video, and it didn't work.

Yes but you must download and install the netflix app and you must also have sufficient space and system resources.

yes you can absolutely use it to project excel, word, power point, or internet search - you can also project movies from netflix or downloaded etc,. this is how I use it in my small business. It will project anything from your computer.

But does it work with Netflix? The Netflix app apparently doesn't have the ability to output video in iphones 3 and older , but that theoretically it should with the iphone 4. Anyone know?

I looked this up because I owned this player but it has been well over a year since I got rid of it. I dont recall being able to use Netflix from the device. A few forums talk about the same issue, however, tech support responds and says there is an option for it. Ultimately, I do remember being disappointed with this player. I would not recommend it.

I am not sure about Netflix. Our sole purpose for this projector is for movies and xbox. It does both very well. We did have to buy an HDMI adaptor cable to connect it to the dvd player.

Only works for vid in a browser or a movie app like Netflix. Won't just mirror what's on the ipad.

I use it to watch Netflix on a TV over HDMI. It works just fine, just make sure you have a decent WiFi connection. YouTube is also fine.

I haven't tried using it for slideshow but it should work, it may depends on the application you use to run the slideshow more then this cable. I use it regularly to watch streamed Netflix movies connecting my iPad to my TV. Videos stored in my iPad will only play on the TV if they are coming from the iOS Video application , if they are stored in other applications like FileApp or other file management program it doesn't work so I suppose it will be the same with slideshow applications.

The question itself is not correct - this does not have anything to do with converting videos. This device is just a way to hookup your wi-fi devices - and yes it works with an iPhone. As to your question about M4V, you have a few options, and they have nothing to do with this device. A) get software on a desktop PC or Mac, and have it do the video conversion (and then you copy or stream or sync it from the computer to the phone). Free software that can convert for you is "Handbrake" or "VLC". Don't pay for software that does this. B) Get an app on the iPhone which can convert video formats. Apps which claim to support this kind of conversion do exist, but they're expensive and VERY slow (your phone was not meant to do this). An IOS video converter app is really only meant to convert short video files, so I do not suggest this option... C) Get a streaming application for your desktop PC or Mac, which does on-the-fly video conversion between formats. "Plex Media Server" is the best example of this, and it's FREE for your computer (note you will need to buy the Plex player app for your phone: it's ten bucks). Other server choices are "PS3 Media Server", "XBMC", and more you could Google for. I use option C. My Plex server is an old Mac Mini hooked up to my TV. I bought the Plex app for my iPad and iPhone. I can wirelessly watch videos on any device in my home, or when I travel (you can download the video to your iPhone, if you have space. Or you can remotely connect to your home computer, assuming your computer is kept powered on).
