The DCR-PC5E is apparently of European version of he DCR-PC5. The camera has three potential video outputs; a DV output, which could be used to output to a computer but not to the
projector, a
S-Video output that you could run to the
projector and an "AV" output that consists of
composite video (yellow
connector on the breakout cable) and stereo audio (red and white connectors on the breakout cable) where you could run that
composite video output to a
composite video input on the
projector. I do not see any
component video output option on the camera, so whether the reference to
component video is simply an issue of terminology or whether you are actually trying to run into a component input on the
projector is not
clear.
The camera's
manual only references the composite and
S-Video outputs in terms of playing back recorded images. That does not mean you may not be able to get a live
image from the camera but the
manual does not seem to
address that functionality and thus offers no insights into how to accomplish it. It is possible that these outputs are tied to the playback head of the recorder and thus can only output a signal off a tape, even if that is immediately after being recorded.
"No Input Detected" on the
projector simply means that it is not seeing any signal it recognizes.
