man.... I remember 15+ years ago when people would DIY these things. with the fresnel lens or an old school overhead projector, with a lilput 7" LCD or one of those playstation LCDs along with those HID 400W bulbs, etc.... Fun times. and how times have changed.
I always wondered how they got the cost so low on these cheaper LCD projectors. They ditched the 3 LCD and dichroic prism design for only one LCD eliminating the need for time consuming manual convergence adjustments. This also reduced the parts count and complexity of the optical train since they no longer need dichroic mirrors to split the light into red, green, and blue. They eliminated the metal halide lamp and replaced it with a mass produced COB LED used in portable work lights. Even with all of those corners cut the picture doesn't look that bad.
That user interface looks so similar to my crenova s interface..it's of course sitting in my closet waiting for me to get a new lcd panel for it and to gaffer tape the top plastic panel back down (it was glued on there). Think you could do a vid on the crenova YG600?
I've got an old Epson that's problematic, and I've given up on fixing it trying to pinpoint the fault. Its so interesting seeing the modern Chinese made ones and how basic they are inside now with the new tech. The picture is great and if something does fail it's a lot simpler to fix or just throw away and replace like most modern things now.
I found the screen mirroring hard aswell as it tries to get you to connect to this certain network which has no internet therefore not letting you screen mirror anything online onto your screen
Very nice little projector and very informative video. If you want to wirelessly connect a PC to a smart TV or projector, Windows 10 is not enough. You need a proper hardware: a Wi-Fi card, CPU and GPU supporting a Miracast technology. The 7-year-old Samsung Galaxy S4 supports Screen Mirroring. And any newer Android smartphone should support this feature.
Its a samsung S9 and it would not connect, but then I have never been able to get it to connect to anything including my smart TV. I must admit thought that I don't stream anything to my TV. I don't listen to or watch any streamed content on my phone so I have never bothered to figure out why it won't mirror to my TV.
@@12voltvids Yes, I noticed that Samsung's smartphone has the biggest problems connecting to Samsung TVs :). Currently, "Screen Mirroring" has different names on different smartphones, and this is not the same as Chromecast. Have you tried to remotely send a screen from your smartphone or maybe stream media files? You should be successful with sending a smartphone's screen. Of course, the smartphone and TV / projector must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
It's quite small for the picture it produces, looks very good to me :-D The case sort of looks like an apple pc, but tiny. Did you experement with how far away from the wall screen it could be put before focus or brightness limits came in? Cute little unit :-D
