Specifics

You can project high definition (HD) or standard definition (SD) video, depending on the processing power of your PC. For smooth playback of HD video, please use a hardware accelerated video player on your computer. A hardware accelerated video player uses the graphics adapter of your PC to render HD video rather than the processor. This frees up the processor for Philips Wirelessconnect video encoding. The content protection on most DVD or Blu-ray Disc movies might restrict watching the movie on TV when the disc is playing on a PC. The TV shows PC media files with a small delay. Philips Wirelessconnect is only available for PC.
