Here's a sample video of the Mr Chicken tomdstone using a $50 projector which puts out about 40 lumens. I'm very happy with it, especially since I will be leaving it outside all month,

I used this projector - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00G46X0OM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I also plan on using one for singing pumpkins.

Does it run off HDMI with no problem? I see tons listed as HDMI but then only work off thumb drive. I would like to run it off a dvd player.

I believe the Atmosfearfx is dvd only, but you might be able to "rip" the dvd to a drive. All the other singing pumpkins are just digital downloads to the best of my knowledge.

If you go to the AtmosFx website they sell digital downloads for the pumpkins in mp4 format. Thats how I bought them. They're a little more expensive but the digital downloads include a 1080p version of the video in addition to the DVD quality one. I wanted the HD quality.

MakeMKV works well for ripping HD from DVDs. For personal use only like this... not for making illegal copies.

That looks really great! I might pick one up too... thanks for sharing the link!

EDIT: I can't tell from the Mr. Chicken site: do you project onto a plain white tombstone cut out of foam?

 

[Mr_Chicken]

Hey Wackychimp, that's correct. There's a how to video at www.chickenprops.com/p/tombstone.html that should make it clearer

Just so you know, the DVDs only have SD video not HD so that's all you'd be ripping. It won't make much difference on an inexpensive projector that doesn't have the resolution though.
