Anyone have a screen/projector/speaker setup they are happy with for outdoors? Want to recommend something (links appreciated)? or give me an idea what to look for or consider?
Older daughter's birthday is coming up and she's having a sleepover (god help us). Wife and her have decided that they'd like to be able to sit in the pool and watch movies. Also, this could be something we could use when we are camping or otherwise out in the campervan (with concessions, obviously, to light and noise pollution and other campers).
My thinking is that this may all be a tall order. Needs to be bright enough to work outdoors (where it's never really "dark") with sound quality enough to be able to hear what's happening, and a "screen" that's portable enough (not to mention the projector and speaker fitting in the campervan). The screen solution that's being proposed is "inflatable" but given our two use-cases I don't know that this is necessary. I'm thinking a sheet or rollup screen with some weights on the bottom might better serve our purposes.
for the outdoor/home use, we have a sound system by the pool, so perhaps there's a way to co-opt that for the home use. I have a sony amp that I haven't hooked up yet but this might be enough impetus to do that. I think it even does the Apple screen sharing. Or I could just break down and plug in an apple tv.
