I bought a different projector off Amazon and their is no sound so I want to make sure this one is both picture and sound. I'm able to hook it up to a XBox and want to use it outdoors for night movies..will this work?

Yes it will work outside at night as long as there are no street lights around the sound is impressive but the lamp is only a MR-16 light bulb sold usually at Wal-Mart for around $6 so it's not very bright, over all not bad for the price

You may hook your projector up via HDMI if you have an HDMI input on it or simply use it as a monitor for which RCA outputs are provided. The receiver drives your speakers directly through speaker wires. HDMI audio output is really only used when the receiver is turned off and your projector cannot use HDMI audio anyway if I understand you correctly. Hope this helps.

Maybe... you are right. Any way 80 ANSI (Is it ture? I don't kow) not enogh to use the projector at day. I can be used for only night.

That is exactly what we use it for, as well as boxing and football games! It's so much fun! Sadly, at only 2000 lumens, it does require darkness. Set-up happens @dusk and shows start after dark(looking forward to changing back to standard time...summer movies start quite late! Next projector I buy will be 3000+ lumens for that reason. It does work wonderfully though, friends are always impressed. One thing to note, sound it a bit lacking so we hook up our Bose Sound Dock for booming sound using "audio out" (RCA cable with headset plug on other end). Hope that's helpful.

It does not have audio output. Therefore, you cannot connect the projector to external speakers. The only way to get better sound from external speakers is by connect your source to external speakers before connect to the projector.

Great projector for the money, and it can connect to your gaming system with an HDMI cable. As far as wireless goes, it's OK, but you'll need to buy the BenQ wireless dongle. The wireless works well for doing presentations, but not so much for gaming. Here's the link. BenQ 5J.J3F28.A01 Wireless Dongle, Black

This has RCA outputs ( yellow video, white and red left/right audio) so if your projector has these inputs (or at least the yellow video in) then it will work.

That's what I bought it for, this is my third projector. A couple things to think about. -Should consider using a sound system the project isn't designed for sound. -I bought screen material and made a frame out of 1x3's. Just switched to Gray screen which helps with ambient light.-Room need to have light controlled somewhat, we have a daylight basement.-Its a projection, so it look more like a movie theater then the hi-gloss HDTV's now out.-Run it in econo mode, I put it in regular mode for 3D and special programs, it really extends the life of the bulb.

I have this projector and it works well, I have tried to use different universal remotes with it but I was unable to connect it. Based on my attempts no. I did a quick check of your remote and I did not see an option for codes for projectors.

It doesn't give the full 1080p. You need to get a higher native resolution projector. If you want to get the best image your XBOX can produce you need to get at least WXGA resolution and a high contrast ratio starting at 10000:1. I feel your pain, I learned this the hard way too. I ended up going with the LG PA70G for $450 and couldn't be happier. View sonic also makes some good ones for less than $500 if you are budget restricted like me.

I noticed a hair of lag with COD AW on Xbox one. It is playable, but not preferred to me. Much less lag than the 5010 projector had, but its there. Ive read elsewhere that the lag is from the keystone adjustment software. That's why some of the cheap projectors have no lag, they dont have the high tech image adjustment software this one has. But I bet they don't look awesome like this projector does!

Hello, in response to your question, if you have just basic speakers (for example I use computer speakers), and you set it somewhere away from you. Then yes you will be able to hear and enjoy your movie just fine:) You must have a projector and connect the speakers directly up to the projector itself. Hope this helps, good luck.

It uses your standard cable that plugs into a computer monitor( most people associate this as the blue ended cable). If you need sound you will need speakers if your laptop isn't loud enough. You can even hook up a VCR or DVD player, game system etc.. As long as you have a sound source for these to get plugged into. I have a set up so my xbox, pc and other things go into this projector and into a surround sound system so that I get loud enough sound. If you use this or any projector in a small room crank your ac down a few degrees or get a fan to point out the door or under the door too keep the hot air to a minimum or you will be cooking. Also this is will not do any HD stuff just basic standard definition stuff. It's a good projector, not the best, but good.

No way.The room must be dark to use the projector.Also the distance must be small.A bad purchase for me. Never got to use it properly.

I had to use a separate audio cable when I connected the HDMI and I don't know if that was a symptom of the projector that I was using or the cable. I'll test the cable on another TV to see if that works and amend this response.

Dear Zachary,I just tested this on the projector I have for sale. I hooked plugged in the HDMI cable and I hooked up the audio to Bose speakers through the audio out port. The video was on screen and the sound came out of my speakers. It works great! I still have my speaker available and I hope you consider me as a seller when buying on Amazon! Thanks!- Jake Zerner

You can only hear the noise if you are using the speakers from the projector. We have our projector connected to a speaker system and never hear noise when watching a movie or gaming. It's a none issue in my opinion. The projector is outstanding.
