How can I setup a wireless projector for HD video?

I have owned the 8350 since just after cyber Monday and have logged about 100 hrs on the lamp. I am very happy so far with the quality.

The picture is great. The contrast is not perfect, but is very nice. It has a much bigger picture than my ViewSonic did. I’m at about a 9.5ft diagonal picture at about 12.8 feet away. I’m thrilled with the Lens Shift which allowed me to place the image pretty much anywhere on the wall. This works much better than keystone and doesn’t warp all the pixels.
If you want a great projector tv for minimal cost, this is it. With an Hd feed through HDMI, I can honestly say that this is one of the best pictures I have ever seen. From 12ft onto a 150″ screen this is amazing.

This is the mount I used: Atdec TH-WH-PJ-FM Telehook Universal Projector Flush Mount

I just got this projector to replace my aging Sanyo PLV-Z1. The 8350 represents a very nice upgrade in resolution, light output, and contrast at a price less than what the Z1 cost me eight years ago.

If you install the projector on a level surface or ceiling, the lense is adustable to where you want to project the picture and the image is square to the screen. No Key-Stone adjustment needed. Read the instructions

Then the lights went off and he cued ‘Quantum of Solace’ opening car chase sequence. He did not turn all the lights off at once, but one by one, closing the doors, then one set of lights, then another, to highlight how well the brightness of the Epson line could handle moderate levels of ambient light. I was totally blown away. Not only was it able to handle the ambient light, but the 92 inch screen appeared to me to look like a high end HDTV. I could barely believe my eyes. I was sold on the spot. I knew that I could not fit a 92″ screen on my wall, so I arranged to order an Elite Screen pull up 80″ screen and ordered the Epson 8350 for delivery to the store within 2 days for pick up.

I could totally understand if the Blu-Ray/1080p-quality movies from Netflix would get out of sync as that is pushing more data over the HDMI and if the cable or switch was degrading the quality just a little bit, it would degrade the signal enough to flip it out. But why would i try to send a low-quality signal DVD through the switch and it flip out, I dont understand.

This is my first projector with image shift capability. Lack of keystone correction concerned me, but turned out to be a total non-problem. From out of the box to projecting a great HD 120 inch image was less than 20 minutes.

I just purchased an Epson 8350 to replace my Sharpvision XV-Z12000. Wow, was I pleasantly surprised. My Sharpvision set me back over $ 11,000.00 five years ago and has done a pretty good job in our dedicated light controlled theater. This “entry level” Epson blows away the Sharpvision hands down. I took me literally 10 minutes to set it up. It’s super quiet.. I’m using it on the “natural” mode for most viewing in our theater. The “living room mode” is really much to bright and will only be needed in any area with a lot of ambient light. I highly recommend this projector

The one thing you see right away with the 1080p-8350 “blank-screen” is that you don’t find the little dots (pixels?) that make up the screen anymore.
