Can I link my xbox 360 to a projector and surround sound system??? If so can anyone recommend a good projector

Question

Please help. I'm getting totally lost in jargon. I haven't got a clue!!!

I thought the burning image thing happened on the screen not the lens???? Can anyone clear this one up please?

Answer 1

Yes you should be able to - while the surround sound could be tricky, the projector should just be a case of pluggin it in really, through a Three pin scart if neccessary

Good projectors...depends on price range - the optoma EP719R is around £700 last time I checked, and is pretty much the best for the money. However, not too good when running DVDs through the S-Video - running through the XBOX itself should sort the problems though.

If you use it as proper home cinema, you're looking more expensive - BenQ PE7700 - which is around £1100, £1200

Cheaper is the Viewsonic PJ406D at about £400-500, but it can be a pain to get right in a small room, and it's zoom is paltry. It has the same DVD probs as the Optoma, but once again, running it through XBOX should clear that - but it only has a 800x600 res, whereas the optoma has a 1024x768 res, much better for gaming.

In the end it all depends on price range really.

before everything maximum projectors do not comprise an interlaced determination so which you're watching 720p or 1080p and the $$$ distinction is approximately $1000. in case you may have the money for it then get the 1080p yet submit to in thoughts the sole ingredient in 1080p is your Xbox so which you will not get 1080p in case you employ it for known television. As for as specifications bypass verify of right here a minimum of determination a minimum of 1280 X 720 Lumen 1000 - 15000 Has ingredient or VGA enter assessment ratio a minimum of 5000:a million or as super as you may get in case you settle directly to bypass 720p quite of 1080p then the Optoma HD70 has a stable deal desirable now the place you may get one for variety of $six hundred after rebate. settle on what you have chose and that i will enable you to out weeder

I don't recommend using any video game system on a projection devices, as images can 'burn' into the lense.

And I don't mean catch fire or anything, I mean where the one image stays on the screen for long periods of time that image stays there. For example if you play a racing game a lot on the screen, a ghost like image of the tacometer may remain on your screen.
