I tried to connect mine to my mac book pro from my DVI out port through a DVI to VGA connector through a VGA to RCA connector and into the projector I get nothing although my computer sees the projector it wont put out a picture. Any ideas on how to fix this.

To Tammi,

It doesn’t get hooked to your TV, it replaces it. The 3 jacks on the side White, Red and Yellow are “INPUT” ports, the Jacks on your TV are also “INPUT” so connecting them will not help you.

Using a Video Game Console, DVD Player, VCR or your Cable Box, plug the yellow wire to the “VIDEO OUT” the red and white jacks go to “AUDIO OUT” for left speaker and right speaker.Then plug the other end of the cables to the projector.
The device (VCR, Game Console, etc…) created the sound and video, the projector displays them.

Aim it at a blank wall, or ceiling and have fun!!

Good Luck. I just bought one for my karaoke machoine and we’re loving it.

Can someone tell me how to hook this projector up to my T.V? Can you do this? I know it seems pretty easy because it only comes with 1 cable. When I hook it up to my t.v, I get no picture and no sound. Thank you

The fan is your friend especially in electronics! I just got a new plasma and saw that the warranties are barely over 90 days labor, so I installed a fan on my new plasma and totally removed all unnecessary heat! Being associated in Bell labs, heat is a killer of electronic components and removing it saves the life out of any electronic product. Bulbs create a lot of heat and a fan is a must!!!

I plan on getting one to replace my TV. Sounds weird, I suppose, but I can’t personally justify buying a big flat screen when I can accomplish the same thing for 1/10 the price and 1/20 the energy use.

Question: what about the fan? I’ve been told the fan can be very loud, and that they tend to overheat if you watch 2 movies back-to-back (that’s about the amount of time it would be used daily). From someone that has used one, how would you rate those issues?
