HI there, sorry if these questions are stupid, but im i real newbie in this area, and just started reading about all this home theater 3 days ago.
Reason is i got a good offer on a projector, and wanted to find out if this is good at showing movies, or just for powerpoint presentations.
I want to build a little home theater, and i stumpled over this site, and it seems you guys know alot ! more than i do so i could use your assistance.
The projector i want to hear your opinion about is this : Canon LV-7545
Specifications here : http://www.canonprojectors.com/lv7545/index.html
As mentioned i dont know anything about these wonders, and would like to know what in those specifications i should look for regarding movie / TV viewing, and also what of those things is good or not so good with this projector. I dont have alot of room, so it will just be in my living room, size is aprox 30m/2 and i will be sitting aprox 4meters from the screen.
Another thing is, i have been wondering alot about how to connect all this, and havent found a solution yet. Problem is that i would like to see regular TV on this as well as movies from both VCR, DVD player and laptop. But as there is no TV tuner in a projector, how can this be done, so i can see a channel on TV, while recording another, and when done, watch the recording...without having to change wires and plugs...
Hope you have a good suggestion, cause i cant find out.
oops, forgot to mention, i would ofcourse want to see movies in 16:9 or widescreen. But dont want to have 4:3 TV signals blown out in 16:9 format, so i guess i need the option to switch between the formats ?
And is this projector the socalled native 4:3 or 16:9 ? where can i see that ?
Thank you all very much in advance.
