Hi there
I just received my first projector and sound system. It's a BenQ W700 DLP-projektor and Samsung HT-E5500 sound system. I planning on using my PC as a media center. I am having some trouble with the wiring and would like to get some confirmation before I go ahead and by the cables I think I need.
The cable that came with the projector is VGA, but my GPU on has 2x DVi and 1x what seems like a HDMI exit. There is 2 HDMI inputs on the projector, but it didn't come with a cable. Should I:
1) get a long VGA/DVI coverter cable?
2) buy a long HDMI cable?
3) Is there any limit to how long these cables ca be without losing quality etc?
As goes for the sound system, I am a little lost. I have positioned and all the speakers and connected them to the box, but from there I am confused. I assume that the input to the sound system box goes from the projector and not the PC? But is it through the "L/R AUX IN" or could I use HDMI? I am pretty sure the sound system didn't come with a cable to the AUX - inputs.
Any feed back is highly appreciated.
Thank you
