Speciﬁ cs

You can project high deﬁ nition (HD) or standard deﬁ nition (SD) video,

depending on the processing power of your PC. For smooth playback

of HD video, please use a hardware accelerated video player on your

computer. A hardware accelerated video player uses the graphics

adapter of your PC to render HD video rather than the processor.

This frees up the processor for Philips Wireless MediaConnect video

encoding. The content protection on most DVD or Blu-ray Disc movies

might restrict watching the movie on TV when the disc is playing on

a PC. The TV shows PC media ﬁ les with a small delay. Philips Wireless

MediaConnect is only available for PC.
