Yes you can adapt it.. My kids play xbox nd go to Netflix to watch movies but you can also use a DVD player nd even a cable box.. It's great nd it's really cheap price!! It's worth nd I honestly recommend it..

Yes, provided your DVD player's audio/video plugs match what is on the projector. There are HDMI and RCA (red/yellow/blue/green/white) inputs as well as a computer monitor input, so it should match most standard DVD players. I've hooked my projector up to a DVD player, cable box, and surround sound speakers with no issues.

No. It does not have a built-in DVD player. It's playback quality was horrible. We returned it.

Yes. I use the same exact set up. Just remember that it's a short throw projector and will need to be about 5ft (give or take) away from the screen.

I think it really depends on how close to the wall/screen you are mounting the projector. Mine is 16 feet from the front of the projector to the wall and easily covers every bit of my 10' 8" (diagonal) screen with excellent resolution. So from 12 feet you should be able to project a very large quality image.

There is no DVD player built into the projector. The projector does come with multiple types of plug-ins so you can connect your DVD player with an HDMI plug or a typical 3-cord plug. I can guarantee that the projector will work very well with it. I have used this projector for travelling presentations and it has worked great every time.

I usually set my projector back about 15-20 feet front or rear. It's a great screen!!!

Ok Eileen, this question doesn't give me enough information, so I did some experiments. If I place the screen 17" away from the front of the projector it can be focused to a sharp picture. At that distance I played the DVD movie "The Croods" and the widescreen picture was approximately 13.25" in diameter or just over 12" wide. Then I moved the screen out about 25" away from the front of the projector until the widescreen picture was 17" wide and then focused it and it was a sharp picture. I then changed movies and played the Blue Ray movie "Ice Age" and it projected the same size picture, but it was slightly sharper. Hope this helps you... :)

I've used this outdoors (at night) on a 20' diagonal screen. Distance between the projector and the screen is about 20-25ft or so. Didn't measure exactly. Works wonderfully on my setup.

There is no DVD player built in, you have to connect a video source such as a DVD player or computer to the projector.

The projectors that I researched will project an image from 20"-300" . The closer the projector is to the screen, the smaller the image. The 115" diagonal screen is a great size. I've set up the screen in the back yard several times for movie nights. You can hang the screen on a fence or from the low eave of the house. I like the screen but you will need to use the anchors (that are provided) on all 4 corners. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Yes, it would work well for this. The projector has to be a fixed distance from the screen which is probably about 4-5 feet to get to 120 inches, but should not be an issue since you are not mounting it. You can determine that with an online calculator. The Lumens are pretty high so should have pretty good visibility at dusk. Only other issue is it is not true HD (1080p) but still looks really good. I use it for my indoor Golf Simulator and it does the trick.

Hi Charles! Yes, it does play DVD's. Very well. Watched Gravity on it today.

No.. it does not have a DVD player, you'd have to buy an external USB DVD player.

Yes. But, id advise you to find a cheaper projector if thats all you want to use it for. This is a top notch projector and if you wanted it for home viewing and portability out to the driveway then great. If its just for driveway use save yourself some money and get a cheap couple hundred dollar projector.

Yes but you will need a device to stream it with. I use a WD player that you can connect a hard drive to, and the player has a HDMI output that you can connect to the projector... Hope that helps

Actually, this particular projector doesn't allow you to download movies. I have a dvd player that I plug up to it. The quality of the picture displayed is excellent no matter the type of dvd player you use. It can be a cheap one or top of the line I've compared them.

I've used it to project some Youtube videos and also play a DVD from my laptop DVD player. It isn't perfect for showing movies because it isn't the brighest of projectors and it doesn't keep up with fast motion as in an action movie. I'd say that it is good enough to show a video clip or play a movie but it isn't going to be top quality home theater video. If the room is fairly dark it would probably look OK.
