InFocus IN80 DLP Projector Comments

IN80 projector performs exactly as reviewed, although I did not find the rainbow effect - perhaps I am less susciptable or the recent model March 2009 has reduced the rainbow effect?
My reveiw contribution is regarding the fact that Sony Playstation3 have reportedly recently changed their HDMI hardware and the IN80 will not syncronise with the 1080p HDMI signal from a new playstation3.

Infocus US help desk are working on the problem but do not have a fix yet. May be wise to check this incompatibility issue with other Infocus projectors, especially the X10 which is very similar to the IN80.

I had a similar problem with the InFocus X10 and the new PS3 Slim. I solved it as follows:

To prevent the projector (Infocus X10) from switching away from source or searching for sources, use the projector remote to bring up the projector menu.

Select "Settings->Sources"

Disable "Autosource"

Set "Source 1" to "HDMI"

Select "Enable Sources"

Disable all sources except HDMI (which must be enabled).
