Does anybody use a projector to multi table?

I was thinking now that party has a minview you can play many tables while using a projector.

That would be amazing to multitable on a 100" screen.

If you have information on this subject I would apperciate your reply

thank you very much

Are you using the Beta version of Party's software?

It sounds like a good idea till you find out those bulbs in projectors dont last that long and cost 3-400$ to replace in many cases.

I have a projector and with the power setting on low the blub will last 2500-3000 hours. If you played 8 hr/day the bulb would last around 300-375 days so figure around $1.00/day to use it to play poker.

i know of someone who uses a projector to 8 table. i'm not sure what info you want, but he's been doing it for some time, so i assume he digs it.

i don't know this person personaly...he is an acquaintence of a friend of mine.

Bulb price is really a non issue. My pj has a 4000hr bulb (399) and the pj was 2k and I run it at 120 inch.

A similar sized plasma/lcd or whatever runs over 10k - I will never go through that many bulbs.....

instead of having to move your eyeballs a few millimeters over to read the cards on another table you will have to no only move your whole eyeball, but probally your head as well which seems like it would be uncomfortable after awhile.

cool sounds like the bulbs are lasting a lot longer than they used to as recently as 4-5 years ago.
