Try different HDMI sources to the projector. If the projector receives HDMI signal passing through any other device (such as surround sound receiver etc.), bypass or eliminate that device and connect the source (DVD Player or PC etc.) direct to the projector in a effort to determine the problem. Try changing the HDMI Video Resolution (1080p 60Hz, 1080i 24Hz etc.) at the source device if possible, the projector may display a lower resolution and not a higher resolution, this is typically due to an HDMI link bandwidth issue. Make sure you are using a Category 2 High Speed HDMI cable tested to 340MHz.

How do i get my HDMI Projector to display hd?
Dale
I recently purchased a projector. It has vga, s video, and composite video inputs. It is an hdmi projector and says it should display up to 1080i. How do I hook my dvd player/ps3 so it will play hd. To my little knowledge of A/V s video and composite are not capable of carrying hd. Any suggestions would help.
Answer
You're correct that composite and S won't do HD.
1) Are you sure about that "HDMI" tag? HDMI is a cable/socket connection. It's not the same as HD - High Definition. If your projector has just VGA, S-Video and Composite then it doesn't sound like a HD projector to me. A model number would help.
2) 1080i is a HD resolution signal. To get that in to a projector you'll need either a HDMI socket (which it sounds like you haven't got) or, at a push you could use Component if the source device has it as well *and* the signal isn't encrypted for security. Those are really long odds though if you don't live in the USA. You might be lucky with a Sky satellite receiver, but rarely with Blu-ray players. They tend to limit the signal resolution to 480p or 576p with movies on Blu-ray disc. The PS3 will play games out via Component in HD though.
Component looks like these marked Y Pr Pb: http://www.itsacon.net/articles/vidcon/images/RCA_sockets.jpg
3) There's a lot of cheap Chinese rubbish being flogged online. The specs are extremely vague and the blurb seems to promise the earth for a very low price. If it was a new projector just check what you have bought meets the description so you know you haven't bought a lemon.
Good luck
