Turn A Projector Into A Box
  I recently purchased a DLP project, as I was afriad of burn-ins/ghosting on a rear-screen projection tv. And I didn't have the money for a dlp plasma.  I was wondering, I really like the bulky look of rear-projection tvs, how they fill up a lot of room. Would it be possible for me to some how purchase one of those boxes without the technology inside of it? I would like to setup my projector so it looks just like a regular rear-screen projection tv. Thanks. |

Can your projector focus that close? Does it have the ability to become a rear projector? Which make/model do you have? Why would you want a box when a simple screen is so much easier?

I have an hp 6162 or something. I suppose a simple screen would do it but I like the box look (it looks like you spent a lot of money). Plus It feels less formal if it looks like a tv screen, everyday use and stuff. (sorry im tired).

It could be done if your projector has the capability to 'reverse' the projected image.
If not... you'd have to watch everything backwards! |

You could set up a mirror to reflect it. At our corp. office - one of their conference rooms has a projector aimed at a mirror which goes back to the screen in the wall. There is about 2 or 3 feet to the mirror and then a little more back to the screen.
