hughesie27 Posted August 3, 2011 Share Posted August 3, 2011 Not sure if it will be possible to project the 3D from the projector. I think you might need a 3D projector to do that? Anyway, to project any standard image from it you will need to use the Sky's VGA, composite or S-Video slots. As these are the only inputs that projector will accept. Good luck. By the way, a VGA cable is what you would use to connect your PC to your monitor. Composite is you Red/Yellow/White cables and S-Video I have no idea about. By the looks of my TV it's just one circular cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sort of cable would work fine for the picture but not the sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wibble Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 One of these cables will do it. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VGA-HDMI-Cable-Adapter-6ft-1-8m-Laptop-PC-LCD-TV-/350482357626?pt=UK_Computing_CablesConnectors_RL&hash=item519a605d7a#ht_1537wt_976 Get the right length obviously.
