This was useful to watch, cheers pal! Your kids looked like they enjoyed helping you :)
Thanks.
Yes they definitely enjoy all of these projects I do, my son helped the most and my youngest was there to keep us entertained and brighten up any monotonous tasks that are usually involved in these kinds of projects.
Do check out my latest videos as the room has changed quite a bit since this but I’m planning on posting an update video soon with the entire home theatre as we’ve now had lots of usage out of it and Friday/Saturday movie nights is now a tradition for us.
Oh and I’d really appreciate it if you subscribed to the channel and help me grow this so I can bring more videos like this 👍🏽
Enjoyed it. Way more patience than me. Well done.
It was actually quite easy to do and as with most things I do, I do lots of research before I start a project so I know what to expect.
My day job requires patience and I think I have ocd anyway so that helps get things like this done 😂
After watching the official Hisense video on the installation, the screen should appear dark grey when looking at it, not white. If its whitish, that means its actually upside down. And you can confirm this with a flashlight as light shining down on the screen should mostly be blocked, but shining up from the bottom should mostly be visible. Just though I would pass this along as I'm about to install my 120" screen as well with my new L9H model projector. But this video was great and thanks for the tips about the middle brackets.
I definitely mentioned this in at least one of my videos as I remember recording a clip where I showcase shining a light from both directions.
I seem to recall I also tried to showcase how even just the material of the screen has a slight rainbow effect when looking very close up to it.
Smashing!
I love doing as much diy jobs myself and like encouraging others to do so as well, it not only adds skills but also can save you a lot of money at times too.
I’ll be doing an update video on how everything is holding up soon so stay tuned for that.
Going to get the 100inch L9G soon, Do the screen brackets need to go into studs, or is it all light enough to sit in dry wall with anchors?.. either way i have a stud finder and anchors, so fully prepared.
Better off putting it on studs, it’s light enough but you never want to trust drywall as you will make adjustments on the bracket to get it straight and also for alignment so you want a sturdy mount.
@@MATechCZcams thanks! That's what I thought, will use studs
Have you compared the L9G with this year's hisense xp1 pro... I am thinking to get this model instead of L9G.
@@yiyan252 I have but its still not available to buy in UK yet despite been on their website for months. I emailed their sales team asking too but they still never replied. It also doesn't include the ALR screen
@@PapaLegba1 true... Not sold here in Australia either. I am thinking to pay extra 400usd to import one from the US.
So, interesting development. My L9G 100" got delivered today, it's being installed on Monday, but I've read somewhere that it needs acclimatising in the room it will be in, so I unpacked it. And the screen is totally different to every one I've seen on CZcams. The frame is in 7 pieces, not 5, and the screen is tensioned with long grub screws that screw through the inside of the frame, rather than springs. The screen says it is a 100inch ALR, but unlike every screen on CZcams that I've seen, this says it is a 1.3 Gain screen, not a 0.4 gain which all others seem to be. The kit that ships with the projector is also different from what I've seen. There is only 1 remote control, the full feature one, and no basic one. It also comes with the feet clamps, (two semi circles with adhesive backing) which I thought only the US ones got. It also comes with several cables as well. I obviously won't get to play with it until Monday (28-11-22), so won't be able to say if any software is different. It still says it is Vidaa powered, so unfortunately no Android TV.
It’s just the new screen as I believe Hisense are preempting issue where the screen begins to sag or lose tension and they just wanted a simpler option for people.
Regarding the gain, only the cinema models have the .4 gain screen, normal model won’t as yours is intended for height room viewing.
I also only got a single remote and I also got the feet clamps but haven’t used them as the unit doesn’t move once placed down anyway.
@@MATechCZcams "The unit doesn't move", I have an incredibly heavy handed 4 year old, the unit will move for me.
Interesting that we also only get 1 remote over here. So we pay more and get considerably less. I'm used to being ripped off price wise, paying in pounds what something cost in dollars, but at least the spec is usually identical, but this is just a complete con.
So the screen. Your reply has two parts. The frame you think is a new design to prevent sagging. I'll count myself very lucky to have that then, and say I didn't realise that was an issue. And I also didn't know the second part to your response, that only the cinema screen (I'm assuming that's the 120", as I didn't get a choice, unlike the US, who can choose a screen) has the 0.4 gain. I'm really hoping that my extra gain means it will perform better in bright conditions, and I don't have to turn my contrast to maximum like you have. We will spend by far the most amount of time watching the screen in a bright room.
Did you get a proper manual with yours, or just the quick start manual? I only have the latter, it explains how to set the screen up and get started, but nothing about functions and general use.
Sorry, I'm being Lazy, what is the app you have on your phone to control the projector called?
Thanks for replying. I'd love to be able to do what you do and film my install to try and help non US customers out, but I can't.
Most of your questions have already been answered in my previous videos, here is a playlist:

@@MATechCZcams what's answered. I haven't asked any questions, simply given info. But on that note, the system is stunning, it's so bright and vivid that it often looks like it's 3D. Absolutely no need to set the screen up so your eyes are a third of the way up, you can view it from absolutely any angle at all. I'd definitely recommend it, I think it's stunning. Also something I've never heard about on any video's about it is that it can record onto an external HDD, like a standard PRV, you just schedule things to record as you usually would. It's an excellent system.
I am planning to get a UST projector and I am thinking of the L9G 120. I had a couple of questions and was thinking If I might get an answer here. I want to use my existing soundbar, the Yamaha YSP-2700 (7.1 surround). It has an optical out and an arc port but not e-arc, I was wondering if this will work with this projector. Since this comes bundled with the screen, do I need to invest in anything else for the projector setup.
Yes your existing setup will work with it, nothing else needed however I’d consider light control for the room if you want to maximise the picture quality.
@@MATechCZcams Thanks for the quick response. I do plan to set this up in the basement. It has light filtering shades installed that filter out 95% to 97% of the light.
Cool, I have several videos on the Hisense L9G so check them out for more info
What calibration settings did you settle on for SDR and HDR, still can't decide what i like best, but i've stuck with Cinema NIght for SDR and HDR, looks nice to me. But I just cant get the correft Smooth Motion settings, off has some judder, but want just enough so its smooth without soap opera effect hmm
If you use the app there’s another option called film, I use that on cinema night.
@@MATechCZcams oh really? Android app? How does that work... On my old hisense TV I had Film and it worked great.
Do you use any geometric correction? I can't for the life of me get it to line up perfectly at all! Always one corner slightly out
I use iOS but I’m guessing it’ll have an android app as well.
Avoid geometric as much as possible, corners will be either the screen, projector level or not far enough away from the wall so may need to pull it further away and then tilt accordingly.
@@MATechCZcams Thanks mate, i'll see if i can get on the app. Managed to get it to line up near 98% perfect after a few hours, and red raw knuckles, will do for me!
Do you know exactly what the apps called? I can see VISAA Smart TV app?
Can i use this screen for other projectors? I have a Xiaomi Mijia UST Projector and wanted to get a good quality UST ALR Screen.
Yes, works with any UST
I don't want to keep this screen up all the time because I will need to mount it in front of my TV. My question is this screen's frame really sturdy and safe to move back and forth from the makeshift mount. Also is there a protective cover so that I can store it more safely?
You’d be better off with a retractable screen because this needs to be wall mounted and accurate for it to work with the projector.
Moving this screen manually would mean you have to align the projector every time.
No protective cover so if you’re handling the screen be sure to wear the provided gloves.
@@MATechCZcams I will be building a custom where all I'll need to do is lift the screen onto the mount and a retractable screen is also a no go unless I get a floor unit which I wouldn't be able to keep it there either and those are expensive AF.
Yes but how are you going to get it positioned exactly the same each time you remove it?
You have to be quite precise with alignment otherwise you throw off the focus as this projectors is fixed focus.
@@MATechCZcams How do you not understand? The mount will be fixed. All I need to do is lift the screen on the fixed mount.
How do you not understand, you have to be incredibly precise to the point moving the screen or projector by even a 1mm will create a cut off image/warped image. It’s fine when setting up by that’s not a process you want to be repeating each time.
But hey it’s your setup you do what you like with it, I’m just saying this isn’t how this setup is intended to be used and the screen is not intended to be moved as this will most likely remove the tension from the springs (if you have the same screen as me) and eventually the screen will begin to sag.
There is to set catch on the rear for the screen it just slots over the wall mounts so it seems like a lot of trouble to go through just to have to recalibrate each time you repeat the process.
Hi sir what is the difference between USA and non US versions. Is it worth buying non US version or shall I go to Xgimi aura 4k.
I’ve done a detailed video on the differences

Another issue I've noticed a few times, when turned off. and then turning back on sometimes, say the next day, it resets the Sound and HDMI settings, the tv reverts to TV speakers from ARC, and my HDMI settings revert to Standard from Enhanced... so have to change them all again. You noticed this on the L9 120?
Over mentioned the audio thing in my video, the enhanced mode has never changed on mine apart from when I’ve done firmware updates as they reset everything each time.
Annoying Hisense L9G bug
czcams.com/video/w89e1dSpnqg/video.html
@@MATechCZcams ah okay thanks will watch!.. The hdmi thing is annoying, it's happened 2-3 times now after turning off, don't think it's a fresh update each time. Sometimes when turning on I have to confirm location etc again too
Any word if UK models are getting the dolby vision update?
As mentioned several times, non-US/non-android models will never get Dolby vision update.
DV was only tested on android models which may have different chipsets and the operating system alone would be an issue, essentially what Hisense is saying is non-us customers don’t matter to them and they’re happy for them to have sub-par products.
@@MATechCZcams ahh okay I see, that's a shame.. Can see myself upgrading to the Px1-pro before long and just flogging the L9, keep the screen. Or maybe even the Formovie Theater if reviews keep steaming in
How wide is your wall? How did the led turn out? I have Nanoleaf 4d kit
3m
LEDs are better oriented to opposite of how I mounted them, I mounted them to shine back onto the wall but because the screen is so close to the wall not much light reflects back (as well as the black paint absorbing most).
You can see the leds in the dark but in a lot room you can only see little bits of reflection.
I’d suggest mounting them so they wrap on the surface that is not facing the wall for better light output, I may change mine to this if I take mine down in the summer.
Any recommendations on LED strips?
Any will work but use non-waterproof ones, the waterproof ones are too stiff and won’t go round corners as well.
How many inches down from the bottom of the screen does the projector sit? And far from the Wall does it sit?
Already detailed all that info in this video towards the end (it has time codes in description).
czcams.com/video/G8FNajexWsI/video.html
As long as it took you to write that you could have told me. Anyways can't find that info in your viedo and won't be watching anymore of your videos!!! Cheers...
If you’re that inpatient that you can’t watch a few minute segment where I took the time to explain in detail how mine is setup then you’re not the target audience for me videos. Not Repeating myself over and over is why I made that section of the video.
I took the time to make yhat section of my video specifically because the claimed and actual distances differ. The video has timecodes for that section as well.
You’re free to look it up online though and no one is forcing you to watch.
Dude he might not remember the numbers at the top of his head either.
