    QLab 4 Scripting Control for an Eiki LC-XL100 Projector

    The model of those projectors I used didn't have a network port (it's been awhile since I had my hands on one). I'm wondering if an Ethernet to RS232 cable adapter might work. That's how I have had to update some older equipment that didn't have RJ45 jacks

    PC devices no longer work on system But Apple still works

    It's likely that exact thing. The transmitter/receiver is most likely running a different version of HDMI and cannot communicate with the laptops to complete the handshake. Your only other hope is to get an emulator to put in line, but at that point, you may as well get the new converter.

    PC devices no longer work on system But Apple still works

    Is this a new PC or just after a recent update of some sort? Since you are having issues with the compatibility with the PC and the extender (most likely). I am assuming that you have already tried the bypass of the HDMI extender and the PC still works with the switcher, correct...

    Favorite Multi-tool Brand

    My thing is, they are both so well made that I'm still using the ones I bought in the 90's

    Best material for rear projection

    A sharkstooth scrim will not make a good rear projection material. What size image are you looking to project? The projector you have works fine for smaller images. For instance, what might be seen through a window. However, if you are trying to replace a scenic drop, it likely won't be bright...

    Set Up w/QuickVu and PerfectCue

    Hi.Yes, perfect Cue can send signal to two computers simultaneously. You could probably do all three if you have two receivers. It looks like the switcher has dual outputs, so you could either run a splitter between the projectors (though some do have a loop through) or from the projector and...

    LDI 2023 new dates

    With F1 taking the traditional time slot for the next seven years or more, they can't really compete for November. I think the masses pushed for that over October.
