    I'd love to see a detailed projector setting video. Specifically switching from a 4:3 for golf and then 16:9 for movies for the kids without having to move the projector and still making the most of the viewable screen real estate.

      Hi! Was wondering if you could help me to understand something he said in the video. He said that there was no shipping and handling. I tried to order a premium screen last night but they added $930 in S&H. I can’t afford to pay that much just for shipping. Is it only free for the guy in this video because of his specific location? For reference, I am located in Central California. Any help is much appreciated as I would love to be able to order the piping kit.

    Thanks brother! Good stuff. Would love to see how you set up the projector. I’m going back and forth from the ZH406ST and a used EH412st (to get a feel without breaking the bank and maybe upgrade to 4k later)

    • @PixelGolf
      @PixelGolf  Před rokem +1

      That’s not a bad plan at all! Keep an eye out for the GT1080HDR as well, I believe it is very similar to the EH412st. Obviously, if you have the budget you can’t go wrong with the GT1090HDR or ZH406ST. The image is great and the adjustment settings and calibration out of the box make setup a breeze!

    Absolutely love your detailed content! I just bought the net return but after seeing this I might just go the Carls route. Was going to put in a indented insert in garage. 2 questions… how far is your hitting area from the impact screen? 2nd - Is this easily portable? I like to be able to set this up easily portable? Besides projector of course but the screen etc…? Appreciate u and keep it up!

    • @PixelGolf
      @PixelGolf  Před rokem

      It can be taken down in under 20 minutes I’d say. Hitting area is 9.5’ from screen. I have another video with full dimensions breakdown on the channel

  • @Derek-yf6pj

    Very nice setup, thanks for sharing. I notice your roof has a pitch. How high is the ceiling above your ball swing area and how high is it above the screen? This will help me with my room design. Thanks

      That I don’t know for sure… I’m about 9’ above my hitting area and I am able to swing driver. One of my friends is 6’7” and he was able to swing driver as well.

  • @JonathanPratt5159
    @JonathanPratt5159 Před rokem +1

    how much buffer space do you want between ceiling and enclosure so your ball doesn't hit the ceiling when it flexes? Also how much buffer on the sides so you don't hit the wall when it flexes?

    • @JonathanPratt5159
      @JonathanPratt5159 Před rokem

      Carl's actually answered for me..."we recommend 2-3 inches of buffer on top, and 2 inches of buffer on each side (so total width would be 4inches less."

    Any complaints about the blp? The price increase sucks but I’d love no misreads and being able to drive off a tee and hit from a nearby area for the rest (using a SkyTrak now)

    • @PixelGolf
      @PixelGolf  Před rokem +1

      I really like the BLP, no real complaints aside from having to wait so long for FSX Play to drop and it still having issues… Misreads are not really a thing and it makes chipping and putting so enjoyable.

    Do you think a launch monitor is worth buying right now? should people wait for the price to come down?

    • @PixelGolf
      @PixelGolf  Před rokem

      I think if they are just getting started, there’s nothing wrong with buying a Garmin R10 or Optishot to get them going and spending the money on the rest of the kit first. You can always resell your launch monitor and upgrade it later, that’s not so easy on the rest of the build to do.

    Can you set the projector off center or to the side and use the keystone adjustment to re-center the picture?

    • @PixelGolf
      @PixelGolf  Před rokem

      I don’t see a reason why you can’t but I’m not sure so check with Optima. One thing to consider is when you go out of spec and stretch images you lose quality and brightness.

      @PixelGolf  Před rokem

      Hello Jorge,
      Thank you for the kind words! I went with the JBL 9.1 surround sound, it’s linked in the description. The reason I chose this is it gives you a 9.1 speaker configuration from a small package and sounds great! I simply plug in the main speaker infront of my screen and it has 2 wireless rear speakers that unclip and are placed behind the listening area to give rear sound and atmos, all wirelessly! The sun is also wireless and has a ton of bass! It sounds awesome and only needs 1 wire(the power plug) to get all of that sound.

    If I was to go with a little bigger than what is suggested on the carls site for 4:3 ratio what would be the downfall? Black lines on screen? I want a 102”x144” enclosure to fit perfect in my nook but when I type in my dimensions it says the biggest I can go is 96”x 126” for a 4:3 ratio.. what would happen if I went with the bigger setup? Thank you

    • @PixelGolf
      @PixelGolf  Před rokem

      They are likely just keeping it in basic ratios to not stench or trim the image. Mine isn’t an exact 4:3 however and I was able to just alter it a bit on the Nvidia GPU to something like 1080x1404. I would definitely dig a little deeper and even talk to Carls, those guys rock at CS! Sorry for the late reply… Lot of life events, but we are revamping the channel soon.

      Use projector calculator on projector central. You’ll still need to make some minor adjustments from there. The most important thing is that it fits the height, the width can be adjusted through the graphics settings
