I can't seem to get the setup menu that switches to video...only the slideshow box...how do I get to that menu? Can this work when plugged in to a laptop like a regular projector?

In the manual from page 5-8 gives you instructions on how to get to the different options. Choose your source, USB, SD or A/V then select your media. I am unable to power my device on to better tell you. I tried using it like a projector connected to my laptop which was why I purchased it, but never got it to work that way and didn't play with it long enough to figure it out. Sorry. It should, since it works when connected to phones unless it is certain devices only.

I do not use mine because the light is so weak. It has been so long I really do not remember the set ups. Sorry.

If you found something that did work, could you please tell me what it was? I'm looking for the same thing. I want to connect a Wii (RCA) to my monitor (VGA) since I don't have a TV. I already have the audio thing worked out, but I need a configuration that works for video. Thank you!!

Make sure the projector is set to the DLP-Link mode (vs 3D VESA). Setting the mode depends on the projector you use.

As you describe your intent - Sorry, no. I've had zero luck attempting to use my PPX2340 as "an external or duplicate monitor. However, if you're trying to project slide shows, it's possible to use this projector. You'd have to load the show to either a thumb drive or transfer it to the projector's internal memory. I've done this with pics; so, there's no reason you couldn't make your "slides" into pics and do the the same.

I plugged my pro2 into a 55" vizio and it worked right away...didn't have to change settings on pro or Vizio, and the Vizio tv's are not super high end. even worked when i plugged pro2 into my powerpoint projector without having to make any changes (unlike my laptops that i have to screw around with the function keys to get it to work). but if i remember (it has been a while and i have only done this a few times) i did have to go into TV settings and change to that input...it doesn't recognize automatically. check the tv settings; you may have to change settings to accept . then look at pro display output modes...may need to tick something there.

It does not need hardware or software installation, it was plug and play. However, I find it's not compatible with all kinds of projectors.

I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. Yes, if you connect it via a USB cable it comes right up. You can also tweak it with the display settings on the computer as well as using the remote for the projector. I use it to teach workshops and it's nice, portable and works great.

It depends upon what you want to display via the projector. What is your video/audio out? You that port and get an appropriate adapter. I returned mind because the color was terrible. But I think there were several input ports I was using HDMI. I think it had s video and RCA also, but I'm not sure. Check the specs online to see what input ports it has.

Hi, are you using USB directly on the projector? If so, it should work fine. Cheers.

It has been a couple months since I have played with Keedox, but (if I remember correctly) I believe you have an option for HDMI output in the setup menu....I just started with that menu and went from there. Just a methodology that I have followed for three decades when it comes to any computer startup

I had the same problem. I could not get it to work, I gave up and purchased ProShow Producer 5 (very easy to use and it's awesome!)

If you are mirroring the laptop you will need to use the laptop keyboard or 3rd party remote connected to the laptop because the projector is only mirroring your display. IF you have converted your presentation into JPG to be played from a USB Memory stick or Micro SD storage then you can use the remote that is included with the projector to navigate your presentation.

I am having same problem, tried the fix that Sam suggested, laptop does not find the camera. What do you mean by "pressing play?" I don't see "play" within the software. Thanks for any help you can give.

I know you can if you save the slides as .jpg or (nicer looking) .bmp files. You have three speeds that it will slideshow to the next picture file, but it's not that convenient to depend on the pause/play buttons. If you need to pause each slide for differing lengths of time, I'd prefer to feed it hdmi by laptop.

either direct connection with a VGA cable or connect o PC via USB and connect that to projector as usual with VGA cable. You ge better resolution when going via PC

I believe you could change the settings on your laptop to run the video through the HDMI but the audio through the laptop's speakers. EDIT 1: I just tried it out myself on a Windows 8 laptop and I was able to switch audio output from the projector to the laptop seamlessly.
