Question about InFocus X1 Multimedia Projector

Multi-media projection without image

While attempting to play a DVD from a laptop using Mediaplayer, we can get the frame of media player to project through the Infocus X1, see the DVD image on the laptop, but not DVD image through the projector. We have checked all connections, restarted both the projector and laptop. We get other images to display through the projector, but no DVD image.

A great deal of the time DVD players are very restrictive on outputting to multiple sources due to copyright protection. In my experience, if you use your laptops function keys to toggle output (For example, on my laptop, I hit FUNCTION + F4 to cycle between LCD,LCD+VGA,VGA), you should be able to disable the laptop's LCD display, only outputting via the VGA cable. It's worked for me with my HP VP6111 and Windows XP in the past. Hope this helps!

Hi

Try to download VLC-mediaplayer from:Videolan.org and try with this program. and/or:
i allways use Mediaplayer Classic http://mpc-hc.sourceforge.net/ this works really well for me
and plays ALL Media. also download and install FFDSHOW: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/ffdshow.htm (this is the codec for media files)

Good Luck

In Roxio Creator 10, I attempt to burn a disk of a slide show. I receive an error message 8004520C When I check production it reports no problem. This is repeatable.

Generally, defragmenting your hard disk will resolve this issue. To defragment your computer:

Go to Start--> Programs --> Accessories --> System Tools --> Disk Defragmenter.
When the Disk Defragmenter window opens, choose Defragment.

If defragmentation doesn't resolve the issue, burn your project as a data file, and then burn your project as a data disc using Disc Copier or Creator Classic. To create a disc image/data file:

After clicking the Burn button, the Burn Project window opens.
You have two data burning options:
- Image file - this option will save your project as an .ISO file. To burn this file you will need to use the Burn Image option in Creator's Copy section.
- Folder Set - burning a folder set will create a Video_TS folder that you can burn using Creator Classic. Burning a folder set to DVD will create a fully functional DVD. Do NOT rename the Video_TS folder other wise it will not play! Simply place it in a folder that is the name of your project if you need to keep track.

Downloaded books from the library won't play

I was having the same problem when I used Overdrive Media Console to transfer my audiobook files to my Sansa. I updated the license and retransferred and even tried changing the USB settings on the mp2 player. What finally worked? Using Windows Media Player to sync the files instead. When I hooked up my Sansa I chose "use WMP to sync files" and then I dragged/dropped the audiobook files to the mediaplayer window. The audiobook now plays without any problems since WMP made sure the files have the latest subscription update code.

I bought a new Lenovo pc with Window Vista.

If its windows media player that isn't playing the dvd's then you'll need to go here and get the latest version of windows media player and also get the latest codecs.

If you have a different dvd player that came with your laptop, then use the other dvd software and see if you can play your dvd that way.

Won't project DVD playing in a PC laptop

My first thought, based on what you said, is for you to check the resolution being sent to the projector...if it's too high,(above the projector's ability to display it) you'll get a distorted or even a blacked-out display. Also, check the settings for the program which is running the DVD. There could easily be an option set incorrectly.
