Question about hooking stuff up to a projector

[austin316]

If I mount the projector to the ceiling, do I have to run all cables up to the project?

How would I manage to hook up, say an xbox, which has a real short cord?

extension cable?

How are your logic skills?

Yep, you're going to need a long video cable or move the xbox and get wireless controllers.

i have had an lcd projector for a few years now and was watching tv, movies on it via s-video.

BIG waste. recently got a vga to component cable. hooked up the component cables to the xbox via the xbox high def pack.

xbox in high def on a projector blew me away. high def television on projector was also great.

my bad.

I guess my question is, if you could by one cable that say plugs into the DVI port and then that cable has multiple connections on it for s-video, dvi, composite, etc. Instead of having to run extension cables for each unit.

you could get a receiver but then that doesn't have a dvi input. if you have the money, you can get this.
