    Cheaper, Used native 1080p or 720p projector on a budget

    I am looking for a cheaper, used native 1080p or 720p projector with HDMI from a good company (BenQ, Viewsonic, Optoma) to replace the one that unexpectedly broke. I wanted to eventually replace the projector that broke with a 4K one when we moved to a bigger place in a year, but since my...

    Performance on 1080p 4K conversion projector?

    Hey guys, I'm looking at the Optoma HD27HDR. 50,000:1 contrast ratio 1.1x zoom 3400 lumens It's hard to judge overall performance on so many variables - would you guys say that a conversion projector's performance is more similar to a 1080p or 4k projector?

    DVR with 1080i + surround recording?

    Right now, I'm looking into DVR devices that also have live TV viewing capabilities. I was nearly sold on the Amazon FireTV Recast until I learned that it only records in 720p. Also, the four tuners are not completely independent; only two may be used for recording at a time, and two for...

    Question about viewing 1080p material on a 4K tv

    Hi guys, I have a concern about upgrading to a 4k tv, that I'm not quite sure the answer to. I remember when DVDs came out and we all had 480 tvs, everything looked fantastic. Then HDTVs came out and now 1080 was amazing looking on them. But viewing that old 480 matierial on a 1080 tv looked...

    4K ULTRA HDTV with 1080p Blu-Ray player

    Hi, I had to purchase a new TV this weekend (being delivered tomorrow). I bought a 4K ULTRA HD (Hisense 55" - yes, I'm on a budget) and I was thinking of getting a new 4K player to boot... however, there are very few movies that I'm interested in that have been released in 4K (I'm mostly...

    Basic Native 1080p projector selection help!

    My thrifted Optima HD70 just died and I am in need of a new projector! I am not looking for anything fancy, just 1080p and bright. Most of these are 3000 lumens and all are 1080p, much better than the old Optima’s 720p, 1000 lumens. I have narrowed it down to two projectors from three brands...

    1080p Weirdness

    I've been noticing something odd. When I have my PS3 set to 1080p, every so often, the signal gets lost sort of. What happens is that I'll start my PS3 with it set to 1080p. A few seconds or a few minutes into a game, or even just sitting on the menu, my tv will flick off, giving me the window...

    blue fringing when playing b/w movies on new 1080P LED set

    Not sure this is the right forum for this, but since it pertains to my new display... After having a Vizio M50-D0 for about 10 days and deciding I couldn't stand the judder of 60hz and realizing I wasn't yet ready for 4K (it made DVDs literally look like VHS), I traded it in for a 1080P LED set...

    Should I start buying UHD, even though I'm Blu-ray right now?

    I'm doing a major home theater upgrade to an HD front projector setup. So I'm buying movies on blu-rays for the first time in several years. I intend to upgrade to 4k in three years when projectors are affordable. Should I be buying UHD now rather than blu-ray? Do all UHD discs come with...

    Recommended 1080p HDMI monitor?

    I think I need a low-cost 1080p HDMI monitor, to use for configuring my HTPC. It's a nuisance to power up the projector, and use it for Windows desktop, anytime I want to work on the HTPC. It's also probably not great for the projector. But I won't use the monitor much once the PC is configured...
