Projector Screens in Projectors & Screens(1000+)

How can I show a movie outdoors?

Choose a dedicated space to show your movie. You can purchase an outdoor movie screen, hang a large sheet, or find a large, blank surface. Use an outdoor movie projector and media playing device (for example, your computer or a DVD player) to project the movie onto the screen. Make sure you have a way to amplify the sound so that you can hear the movie while outdoors.

How do I use a projector screen?

Find the right spot to put your projector screen. Ensure the dimensions of the space work with the size of the projector. Position the projector far enough back to get a clear image, which depends on the type of projector. You can mount the projector once you find the perfect spot or just place the projector on a table. Use a soundbar or other wireless speaker to amplify the sound. The speakers on a projector are typically not loud enough for a large room.

How do I know what size projector screen to buy?

Projector screens are sized by diagonal measurements, so it's best to figure out the height and width of the space you want to use the screen. The most common sizes are 100 to 120 inches on the diagonal. Screens are also sold by aspect ratios, which is a ratio of height and width. An aspect ratio of 16:9 is the most common size for home theaters.
