@Edward M, Ed Greshko: It's completely generic, the projector

a brand, doesn't has a model.
My computer it's a laptop with VGA port, the only cables I have
are
the ones I show in the following images:
http://bit.ly/HrV0KV
http://bit.ly/Hs3qS1
(Same as above)
So, Quick idea: As the USB port is not capable to stream video, I
was wondering if
It looks like this cable breaks out the VGA signal to a RGB output.
If the projector excepts RGB video input, then it will work. (Is
cable
http://bit.ly/HrV0KV just for video, or audio and video both?)
Maybe it will be possible to connect the projector to the VGA port
of the PC and then select
it as an output instead of the laptop screen resulting that in a
projection from the computer
to the projector?? O.o, In a "Diagram" My idea is:
This to the projector: (As it only has AV IN port exactly for this
cable):
http://bit.ly/HrV0KV
Then This to that cable:
http://bit.ly/I9GS7K
And Finally the VGA end from that last cable to the VGA port of the
Laptop, then
maybe run the
command issued above:
"xrandr --output VGA"
And as far as I understand it should result in projection from the
laptop computer
to
the projector as it were a VGA monitor right??
What do you think? :)
Dumb question - does your laptop have an S-video output? If so, you
can probably use that, especially if the projector has an S-video input.
Also, depending on your laptop, there may be more then one video
"card" - so you can have the built-in display showing one thing, and
the external video showing another. Or they can both show the same
thing, but at different video resolution. If your laptop has this,
you can use the GUI setup tool to set each screen the way you want.
There are USB video "cards" - I do not know how well they are
supported, as I have never needed one.
I hope this helps...
