Just remember guys, there won't be an assembly manual until I get a chance to work on it. It won't take long, but I've got other things ahead of it.

My P1283 modification tutorial video will be out today as well. I filmed and edited it this morning and it took longer than anticipated due to audio level issues.

Finished the video, now a ton of rendering, audio compression, and video compression is going to take place. I recommend people not to modify their projectors until this video is online, Guanu helped me with the modification process and it's very detailed.

EDIT: I'm having issues with exporting the video file properly, please be patient while I correct them.

No problem Kevin. I hope you like to experiment!

UPDATE: FCPX, for whatever reason, is having issues with the exportation of this video in HD (it exports fine in SD). I'll try to get it up by tomorrow AM, sorry for any inconvenience.

John: thanks! All materials present here, waiting for the kit. I've assembled some pretty complex projects without a manual, and looking at the pictures on the web page, I don't think it will be too challenging. Looking forward to getting it done! Safe travels to Seattle.

Thank you for your feedback, rgthane. That was exactly what I was going for.

Well that sucks! I had to take my son back to college today and UPS attempted delivery while I was away. They did not leave my DropLit so now I am a day behind! I wish I knew that it would require a signature-I would have waived that. I get UPS deliveries everyday for my fly reel business so I am surprised they didn't leave it.

Anyone get theirs today?

cheers,
Michael
