Frequently Asked Questions
Image Problems

Why do I see green, blue, or red "smudges" or "blobs" on my projected image?
A:
More than likely, what you are seeing is dust on one of your LCD panels. Try pausing your image so that these abnormalities are clearly visible (see image). Then simply de-focus your projector in BOTH directions. (see image).
You should see these blobs actually become a solid object either in the form of a string of lint or a spot of dust. To avoid dust blobs from occurring, it's important to perform routine maintenance on your projector. Cleaning of the filter with a vacuum on a monthly basis will help reduce accumulation of dust buildup. .

Q:
My image isn't square or rectangular, it's more of a trapezoid shape. What could be causing this and how can I correct it?
Projector placed at angle to screenA:
Make sure the projector isn't placed off to one side of the screen or turned to face the screen at an angle (as in the illustration to the right). Place the projector directly in front of the screen, centered, and ensure that the projector is facing the screen squarely.
Projector that needs keystone correction

A:
If the diagram to the right better represents your image, a simple keystone adjustment (if available on your projector) can correct the image.


Q:
I have adjusted my keystone correction so my image is square with the screen but when I shut off the projector, the settings are lost.
A:
Check the menu of your projector. There is a good possibility that you need to enable a "Save" feature for the keystone. This is common in many Epson projector models.

Q:
There is a strange "flickering" only on one side/corner of my image. This happens regardless of my input source (computer, DVD, etc.). Is my lamp going bad?
Test flicker by inverting your image

A:
A quick test to determine the cause would be to invert the projected image. Many projectors have what is called "rear" projection mode where the projected image can be reversed depending on installation. Simply change the mode of your projector from front projection to rear projection. This will cause the image to be reversed on your screen (see diagram). If the "flickering" remains locked in the same location, then the defect would probably be with your lamp because the lamp wouldn't be physically reversed. However, if the flickering changes sides, the problem is more likely a defect developing within the projectors optics.

Black bars on widescreen projectors

Q:
Why do I still see black bars on the top and bottom of my projected image when I am using a "16x9" projector watching a "16x9" movie?

A:
Your wide screen projector has a 16x9 LCD panel or DLP chip inside of it creating the image you see. Since the 1950s, Hollywood has been shooting film in various "widescreen" formats. The aspect ratio of the widescreen DVD or VHS tape you are watching will vary depending on the camera used to film the picture.

Common aspect ratios which will display black bars on a 16x9 (or 1.77:1) projector include 2.35:1 (Examples include Scream, Lawrence of Arabia ), and 1.85:1 ( Examples include Ace Ventura; Pet Detective, Almost Famous ).
Click here for a list of DVD movie aspect ratios from the Internet Movie Database.

Q:
I am experiencing an awful lot of 'noise' in my projected image. It is primarily noticeable in darker movie scenes. I have changed my DVD player and my cabling. What else could it be?

A:
Projectors sometimes pick up and magnify (due to large screen sizes) 'noise' in an image resulting from interference or grounding problems. Try disconnecting all inputs to the projector and connect just the projector to a different wall plug or circuit in your home/office. If you see 'noise' in just the startup screen on your projector, there could be a problem internally with the projector. If you do not, there is a problem somewhere in your theater setup.

Try reconnecting one piece at a time while the projector is on. There should be a point where you notice the 'image noise' returning. The last connected component will be the source. Spacing the cables being run to the projector, upgrading the power cord to a higher quality 'home theater grade' cable, installing Electromagnetic / Radio Frequency Suppressor sheets and installing PowerWraps on your power cords are all options to correct the problem.

Q:
My computer's projected image is either missing information from the top/bottom, compressed from left/right, or doesn't appear at all. What's wrong?

A:
In most cases, to get a matching image, the computer's resolution must match the projector's native resolution. To configure the computer's external video signal resolution, follow these steps:

Connect the projector to the computer using the appropriate cable and turn on the projector before the computer.
In Windows 95/98/NT, select "Control Panel" --> "Display Icon" --> "Settings" --> "Desktop Area" to adjust the resolution to 1024 x 768 (XGA) or 800x600 (SVGA).

In Windows 3.1, select "Windows Setup" from the "Main" program group, and change the display driver, eg. SVGA (800 x 600).
Configure the computer/laptop to display video only on the external video port. This is usually done through a combination of keystrokes (such as FN+F4) or a hardware setup program (consult your computer documentation for details).
You may have to restart Windows for the changes to take affect. Also note compatible refresh rates, for example 56Hz or 60Hz for SVGA signals, between your computer and projector. Most projectors can manage a wide range of refresh rates.

Q:
I have a new Compaq laptop and the projected image is too big for the screen -- how do I fit it?

A:
Your laptop may have a separate control for external display. In Windows, go to Control Panel, Display and click on Compaq, Advanced, CRT. In the CRT settings, change the display to either 800x600 or 1024x768 to match the projector.

Frequently Asked Questions About Projector Lamp Problems
Lamp Problems

Although it is sometimes called a projector bulb, the part of the projector responsible for emiting light is actually a bulb and housing in one, and is better known as a projector lamp. A projector lamp is more like a car headlight than a regular light bulb. Projector lamps, like air filters, can often be replaced by the owner. Check your owner's manual or call or email our customer service staff for more information.

Q:
My projector seems to be functioning properly but the no light is produced.

A:
Remove the lamp from the projector. Ensure that it has no cracks, discoloration or "smoky" appearance. It may have blown out.

Q:
My lamp looks fine but the projector does not light. I notice a "clicking" sound coming from the projector when I turn it on.

A:
That could be the sound of your lamp ballast attempting to ignite the lamp but is unable. It is recommended that you try removing and reseating the lamp, or to try another lamp.

Q:
I just replaced my lamp but I am still not getting any light from my projector.

A:
Here are a few things to try:
Reset your lamp timer. Most projectors have no way of knowing if you physically have replaced your lamp. They rely on the user resetting the lamp timer.
Pull the lamp back out of the unit, give is a brisk shake and reseat the lamp. Occasionally there is some buildup on the lamp contacts or filament during manufacturing.

Q:
I was watching a movie last night and I heard a loud pop! After inspecting my projector, it seems my lamp has shattered. There is glass inside of the projector itself, what should I do?

A:
It is not entirely uncommon for lamps to fail prematurely in an abrupt manner. This is commonly due to a weakness in the glass, caused during manufacturing, and would typically cause the lamp to explode within the first few uses. It is recommended that you place your projector on some newspaper or paper towels on your table or workbench. Carefully remove the lamp housing and place it in a small box or sturdy paper bag. Flip the projector right side up and gently shake it from side to side over the paper towels or newspaper to get all the small glass fragments out. One or two small pieces left in the projector usually will not cause any future problems. If your lamp has failed in this manner, it may be covered under a lamp warranty with the manufacturer. At your earliest convenience, call the customer service group at Projector People to verify if a warranty exchange is available.

Panasonic PT-AE8000U Full HD 3D Home Theater Projector

Product Description
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

2400 Lumens of Brightness
1080p (1920 x 1080) Resolution
Red-Rich Lamp
Full-HD-Optimized Lens
480 Hz Processing Capability

Frame Creation 2 / Lens Memory

The PT-AE8000U Full HD 3D Home Theater Projector from Panasonic offers 2400 lumens of brightness with a 500,000:1 contrast ratio. It comes equipped with a 220W red-rich lamp for increased red intensity, which enables the projector to produce bright images as well as remarkable color reproduction. The PT-AE8000U generates deeper blacks by incorporating Panasonic's Pure Contrast Plates, which match the LCD panel characteristics, virtually eliminating light leakage.

The PT-AE8000U delivers a 1080p video experience that ultimately provides excellent picture quality in 2D, as well as advanced 3D features that delivers a natural and comfortable movie theater experience at home.

The PT-AE8000U is also equipped with three HDMI input terminals, which support DeepColor and x.v. Color, and two 12V triggers for home theater automation, such as lighting and a motorized screen.

High 2400 Lumens of Brightness with the Advanced Red-Rich Lamp

The 220W red-rich lamp increases the luminous efficiency of the projector to achieve brighter images, even in 3D viewing, with excellent color purity. Able to produce a stunning brightness of 2400 lumens, the PT-AE8000 unleashes the beauty of 2D/3D full-HD expression for viewing on various screen sizes. Cooling efficiency for example around the polarization filters has been increased to realize the higher lumens. Color purity is further increased by applying a special coating to the red and green condenser lenses in order to trim the impurities from the light after it is separated into the three primary colors

Full-HD Optimized Optical System
To assure maximum clarity and sharpness in full-HD images, this advanced optical system employs a full-HD-optimized lens unit comprising of 16 lens elements in 12 groups, including two large-diameter aspherical lenses and two high-performance ED (extra-low dispersion) lenses. Each lens is carefully aligned to assure a uniform focusing balance from the center to the edges of the screen. As a result, the PT-AE8000 produces stunningly clear and beautiful images

3D Motion Remaster Delivers Correct, Natural 3D Movement
This technology solves the problem caused by a phenomenon called the Mach-Dvorak effect, which occurs in many systems during 3D viewing. The active shutter 3D system displays left-eye and right-eye images alternately. This means that left-eye and right-eye images that were captured at the same instant are shown with a time lag. During this time lag, especially when watching a scene in which an object moves quickly and horizontally across the screen, the viewer's brain automatically speculates and forms an image at a position that differs from the actual shown image. This results in incorrect depth perception and makes the horizontal movement appear unnatural. 3D Motion Remaster technology achieves smoothly moving 3D images by creating properly positioned images to compensate for the time lag
Up to 480 Hz Compatible LCD Panels

The PT-AE8000's full-HD LCD panels provide bright images with high aperture ratio. The panels are also designed for 480 Hz processing capability for bright 3D images. These high-precision panels use vertically aligned liquid crystal molecules with inorganic alignment layers. When no voltage is applied, the molecules are aligned perpendicular to the glass substrate, so there is minimal light leakage, providing higher contrast
2x Optical Power Zoom / Focus and Wide Lens Shift Range

A 2x optical power zoom / focus lens and a lens shift function together make it possible to project a 120-inch picture from as close as 11.8' (3.6 m) to the screen or as far as 23.6' (7.2 m) away. In addition, the image can be shifted ±100% vertically, and ±26% horizontally. This gives you outstanding setup flexibility. If you choose to ceiling mount the projector, you can zoom and focus by remote control
Pure Contrast Plates Deliver High 500,000:1 Contrast Ratio

The pure contrast plates in the PT-AE8000 use a high-precision crystalline material that is carefully matched to the characteristics of the LCD panels to effectively correct the passage of light exiting the panels. This enables the projector to block unwanted light leakage and successfully increases the dynamic range. It works together with the Pure Color Filter Pro and Dynamic Iris Pro to achieve an astounding contrast ratio of 500,000:1

Pure Color Filter Pro for Rich, Vibrant Colors
The optical filter optimizes the light spectrum from the UHM projector lamp, helping to produce deeper blacks while improving purity levels in the three primary colors (red, green and blue). This advanced filter system improves color purity to cover a range that extends from the HDTV standard (Rec. 709 mode) to the color gamut used in digital cinema. This gives images the deep, rich coloring that distinguishes movie images
Dynamic Iris Pro Adds Beauty to Both Dark and Bright Scenes

This intelligent iris system works by analyzing the brightness level of each image using a histogram, then adjusting the lamp power, iris and gamma curve accordingly to create the ideal image. The adjustments are made virtually frame by frame. This helps the projector achieve a wide dynamic range with swift smoothness for added beauty in both dark and bright scenes
Smooth Screen Technology Creates Film-Like Texture

While many LCD projectors suffer from a chicken wire effect, Panasonic's pursuit of the highest possible image quality has successfully overcome this device limitation through the incorporation of smooth screen technology. This uses the double refraction property of crystals to arrange pixels on a screen with no gaps between them
Dual Core Processing Engine

High-quality 2D image processing, including Frame Creation and Detail Clarity Processor, can be enjoyed in 3D as well, with the incorporation of the high-performance dual core processing engine
Frame Creation 2 for Motion Blur Reduction in 3D/2D Viewing
A double-speed frame interpolation display for both 2D and 3D viewing, even during 2D-3D conversion, greatly improves the clarity of motion images, reproducing sharp and clear images for fast moving scenes in sports and action movies. For 24p signal input, four frames are calculated and interpolated for each existing frame, to enable 5x speed (120 Hz) display
Detail Clarity Processor 4 Gives Natural Clarity to Even the Finest Details

This digital image processing circuit brings greater clarity and sharpness to details embedded in the image. After analyzing the video signal frequency in each scene, the circuit optimizes the sharpness of each part of the image based on the extracted information. The resulting images, 3D or 2D, have more natural, lifelike expression than those of previous image-processing methods
Lens Memory for 2D/3D Viewing

Up to six settings, in 2D or 3D viewing, can be stored in the lens memory, including zoom and focus positions for projecting in the normal 16:9 or 4:3 image ratio, and wide cinema projection settings. These memories can be recalled manually for 2D or 3D, or can be set for automatic switching in 2D. The projector is able to detect 2.35:1 and 16:9 sources and retrieve the stored setting automatically. The lens memory function lets you easily enjoy images with different image ratios on a wide 2.35:1 screen for an immersive theater-like experience
2D-3D Conversion

2D to 3D image conversion is possible, with five 3D effect modes to select from
Seven Picture Modes

For each 2D and 3D viewing, seven different picture modes (normal, dynamic, Rec. 709, D-cinema, cinema 1, cinema 2 and game mode for reduced frame delay) are provided
Advanced 3D Adjustment Functions

A variety of 3D viewing adjustments also provide a more comfortable viewing experience at home. These include 3D lens memory, 3D zoom and focus, 3D color management, and 3D keystone correction
3D Viewing Monitor for Adjustment of Depth-of-Field

The projection size for viewing 3D images can be selected from among 9 different sizes, ranging from 40 inches to 200 inches diagonally. The amount of parallax is optimized according to the projection size so comfortable, easy-to-view 3D images can be enjoyed at any size. Either of three monitor styles can be selected

3D Picture Balance with Waveform Monitor
The projector is able to show the right and left image side by side to check if the two sides have the same colors. The difference may occur due to poor content quality. With the Waveform Monitor displayed, you can adjust the contrast, brightness, color and tint as desired, and up to three adjustment settings can be stored in memory for instant recall

3D Viewing Monitor for Adjustment of Depth-of-Field
The PT-AE8000 uses frame sequential technology for 3D image projection. When viewing 3D content, signals from the PT-AE8000's built-in infrared transmitter precisely control the left and right shutters of the active 3D eyewear. The built-in transmitter offers maximum transmission distance of 20' (6.1 m)). For more range up to 33' (10 m), an optional infrared transmitter, ET-TRM110 is available for greater installation flexibility

Waveform Monitor for Precise Calibration
With the PT-AE8000 you can view the waveforms on the screen and adjust the settings both automatically and manually as you prefer
Advanced Gamma Adjustment Function

The gamma curve can be flexibly controlled, allowing precise calibration according to the signal source and environment. Brightness (Y), R, G and B can each be adjusted at any fifteen points. Adjustment point positions can be shifted both horizontally and vertically to bring out the desired gradation level. Adjustment is easy because the small menu screen does not block the image
Split Adjust Mode for Easy Picture Adjustment

You can freeze any scene you wish, and then make adjustments while easily comparing the original image and the adjusted image side by side
Cinema Color Management Premium Enables Flexible Color Control

This color correction system enables free color control in two different modes. The point color correction mode lets you pick a point in the image and adjust that color without affecting the neighboring colors. The six color correction mode enables independent adjustment of red, green, blue, cyan, magenta and yellow. Adjustment is possible for either 2D or 3D viewing
Abundant Connection Terminals

The PT-AE8000 has three HDMI input terminals for digital transmission without image degradation. The HDMI input terminals also support Deep Color and the x.v.Color color space. Deep Color provides 10-bit (over 1.07 billion) and 12-bit (over 68.7 billion) color depths for smooth gradation between colors, while x.v.Color compliance reproduces natural, lifelike images
12V Triggers

Two 12V triggers are provided. Since the input and output can be set independently (menu selectable), they can link flexibly with powered screens, room lights and powered curtains. Combined with the lens and memory, they let you create a truly classy home theater
VIERA Link for Easy Operation

The PT-AE8000 supports VIERA Link. If your home theater system contains VIERA Link-ready equipment, projection can be started by using only the remote control unit of the PT-AE8000, regardless of whether the source is a Blu-ray disc or a TV program stored on an HD recorder. This eliminates the need for hassling with several remote controls

Up to 5000-Hour Lamp Replacement Cycle and Simple Maintenance

Panasonic's proprietary lamp drive system helps maintain lamp performance, resulting in an up to 5000-hour lamp replacement cycle. For easy maintenance, you can replace the filter from the side and the lamp from the top of the projector. The dust filter and lamp are easily replaced even after the PT-AE8000 is installed on the ceiling

Ecology Conscious Design
Panasonic works from every angle to minimize environmental impact in the product design, production and delivery processes, and in the performance of the product during its life cycle. The PT-AE8000 reflects the following ecological considerations:
No halogenated flame retardants are used in the cabinet

Lead-free glass for the lens
Standby power consumption of only 0.08W has been achieved
A sleep timer that reduces wasteful power consumption
RoHS compliant

Audio/video aids in business communication and training help in numerous ways. Each individual understands and retains information differently, which is why professional training organizations use multiple audio and visual tools during presentation sessions. This type of session is commonly known as a "multimedia presentation," which can include written, visual, auditory and sometimes interactive methods.

Information Retention

According to the U.S. Department of Labor OSHA Office of Training and Education, "retention of information three days after a meeting or other event is six times greater when information is presented by visual and oral means than when the information is presented by the spoken word alone." The combination of sight and sound, along with written handouts is a necessary component of information retention, and can be found in most every experienced training organization.

Visual Aids And Time Saving

Using visual aids can save your business time, especially if the subject contains information that may be too lengthy for written or oral communication. Pie charts, graphs, diagrams, photographs, video shorts and animation can often help explain subject matter quickly, and in a manner that is more easily absorbed by the learner. Time is valuable in every organization, so the importance of timely and effective implementation of training and communication should be a prime consideration. Visual aids can include projectors, flip charts, models, white boards or any combination thereof.

Auditory Aids

The type of auditory aid used in your multimedia presentation is most likely based on your budget, but the effectiveness of each type must be considered. Live speakers that are experienced in adult learning concepts and have working knowledge of the subject, offer an interactive experience. If a point or concept is not clear, the trainer is present to answer questions and go into further detail. Live trainers also serve to add personality to the program, and can provide individual attention to persons or groups if needed. Prerecorded voices used in presentations may seem cost-effective and get the job done, but there is no guarantee that the communication was fully understood.

Handouts

Handouts serve to reinforce oral and visual components, and can go into further detail if desired or warranted. Handouts allow participants to follow along with presented information, make notes, formulate questions or refer to key points in the future as a "refresher course." For individuals who learn more effectively by reading than other means, handouts are an important part of business training and communication. Adding short quizzes and "fill in the blank" sections to handouts helps reinforce to material, and engages the participants in the process.

Importance of Engagement

Using multiple mediums during presentations can help individuals and groups to interact and become part of the session. Persons who are engaged in the process tend to retain and understand information more effectively, and are less prone to inattentiveness. Participation in games, Q&A sessions, team and whole-group activities not only breaks up the monotony, but encourages and reinforces learning, management and team building skills. Employees that are engaged in the process of business training and communication are better equipped to put information to use in real-life business situations.

Thanks for your advice Jackeeh, I will plan towards that before the end of this year and I don't mind if you will go with me.

What Gift Would You Buy For Yourself If Your Birthday Is Tomorrow and you can afford it?

I'm celebrating my birthday tomorrow and I'm thinking of buying myself a befitting gift to appreciate myself.
Anyway I want a gift that is affordable right away.

My mentality is this if I can't buy something worthwhile for myself on my birthday
then I shouldn't expect any worthwhile gift from anybody.

Why I ask the question is because I know there are lots of intelligent people on Nairaland
and I know you will help me out, Thanks.

Birthday boy is expecting your response.

7 THINGS I HATE SEEING AT SEMINARS/TRAININGS/ CONFERENCES

I love attending programs that can add value to me and coupled with the fact that I'm an event person, I supply audio visual equipment for most event in Lagos. Whenever I'm not having event, I attend training and seminar to develop my capacity and expertise on a trending subject.
As a matter of fact, learning is a continuous thing and the more you learn, the more you earn.
I have seen wonderful speaker who swept me off my feet because of their skillful presentation & delivery and I have seen boring & illogical speaker whom I pray within me silently to leave the stage.
While there is nothing wrong with learning on the job but you must learn fast.

Seven things I wish some speaker know before delivering a speech:

1. LATENESS: I don't know if you have witnessed a scenario where you got to the venue before the speaker because in Nigeria context the speaker is also the host & organizer. In fact, some participants will help in sweeping, arranging chairs and cleaning the chairs. Yes, we have come learn from you but please don't turn us into your slave - there is God ooh!

2. USE OF MICROPHONE: It's a common-sense to know that there is equipment called "MICROPHONE' and It helps speakers like you to amplify your voice so you won't need to be shouting and crack your voice. Okay, let me tell you whenever you have audience size of 50 people or more, definitely you need PA systems and the good thing about it is that there is portable PA systems that caters for small group meeting.

3. RUNNING SPEAKER: A speaker needs to move around the hall and not running in the hall, don't mistake walk round to run round. Leave running and jumping to TUFACE and DAVIDO it's not needed in this field. I have seen speaker running & jumping and got so tired that he
couldn't finish the seminar topics. Take the time to relax, entertain and don't to overwork yourself.

4. Good use of a microphone: Learn how to use a microphone is very important to speaking profession. Everyone knows the microphone and thinks they know how to use them. Sadly, this is not the case. Before using a microphone make sure you do a sound check. Position your mouth directly to the microphone. If you have a loud voice you can keep it at a fair distance but if a thin voice keep it very close. The gospel truth is just that don't shout at listeners and don't allow them to say 'we can't hear you sir."

5. Venue: Speaker should make an effort to secure an adequate & appropriate venue for the participants, it's not too good to have 100 people in 50 capacity hall. The speaker will overlabour himself and the listener will hardly learn anything. Don't allow any participants to stand since where are not on the field.

6. Presentation aids: Speaker must be up to date with technology, there are various presentation equipment you can use to make your training perfect and professional. A projector is very necessary for any organized educational programs even if you can't afford to buy a new projector, you can hire for a day or a week.
Furthermore, every speaker should have a laser pointer, it helps to control your slide without taping or staying glued to your laptop.

7. TIME: Be conscious of time, your participants have other commitments or traveling to far distance even those in Lagos. Your 3 hrs must be judiciously used and not for unrelated discussion. Again, avoid hourly charged hall for time constraints because another person might just be waiting for you.

I hope these 7 observations will help someone out there and become a better Speaker, also if you need tips for organizing a successful training/workshop/conference - contact Xtraminds Concept (Audio Visual Rentals & Event Support Services) on 08034291442.
