Connecting Video source devices

You can connect your projector to various Video source devices that provide any one of the following output sockets:

HDMI

Component Video

S-Video

Video (composite)

You need only connect the projector to a Video source device using just one of the above connecting methods, however each provides a different level of video quality. The method you choose will most likely depend upon the availability of matching terminals on both the projector and the Video source device as described below:

Best video quality

The best available video connection method is HDMI. HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) supports uncompressed video data transmission between compatible devices like DTV tuners, DVD players and displays over a single cable. It provides pure digital viewing experience.

See "Connecting an HDMI device" on page 20 for how to connect the projector to a HDMI device.

If no HDMI source is available, the next best available video connection method is Component Video (not to be confused with composite Video). Digital TV tuner and DVD players output Component Video natively, so if available on your devices, this should be your connection method of choice in preference to (composite) Video.

See "Connecting a Component Video source device" on page 21 for how to connect the projector to a component video device.

Better video quality

The S-Video method provides a better quality analog video than standard composite Video. If you have both composite Video and S-Video output terminals on your Video source device, you should elect to use the S-Video option.

See "Connecting an S-Video source device" on page 22 for how to connect the projector to an S-Video device.

Least video quality

Composite Video is an analog video and will result in a perfectly acceptable, but less than optimal result from your projector, being the least video quality of the available methods described here.

See "Connecting a composite Video source device" on page 23 for how to connect the projector to a composite Video device.

Connecting audio

The projector has a built-in mono speaker which is designed to provide basic audio functionality accompanying data presentations for business purposes only. It is not designed for, nor intended for stereo audio reproduction use as might be expected in home theater or home cinema applications. Any stereo audio input (if provided), is mixed into a common mono audio output through the projector speaker.

Both models utilize DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, known for its reliability and high performance. DLP technology minimizes the risk of color degradation over time, maintaining consistent image quality. This technology also enables the projectors to produce sharp images with smooth motion, making them suitable for displaying video content as well as static presentations.

The MP623 and MP624 come equipped with a native resolution of XGA (1024 x 768), which is ideal for displaying standard presentations and graphics. They also support multiple resolutions, allowing for flexibility in different usage scenarios. The projectors are compatible with various input sources, including HDMI, VGA, and composite video, making it easy to connect to laptops, desktops, and other multimedia devices.

Portability is another key characteristic of the MP623 and MP624. Weighing in at just a few kilograms, these projectors are lightweight and easy to transport, perfect for professionals on the go. Their compact design does not compromise on performance, and they can be quickly set up in different environments, from conference rooms to classrooms.

User-friendly features are also prominent in these models. The intuitive menu system and remote control make it simple to navigate through settings and customize presentations. Furthermore, the inclusion of various preset modes allows users to optimize their viewing experience according to the content being displayed, whether it be text, graphics, or video.

In addition to their impressive technology and features, the MP623 and MP624 are designed with longevity in mind. They are equipped with long-lasting lamps, offering extended usage hours and minimizing maintenance costs. The efficient cooling system helps prolong lamp life while ensuring quiet operation, which is critical during presentations.

In conclusion, the BenQ MP623 and MP624 projectors combine portability, high brightness, and advanced DLP technology, making them excellent choices for professionals and educators seeking reliable and versatile projection solutions. With their user-friendly features and quality image output, these projectors are well-suited for a wide range of applications, enhancing presentations in any setting.
