Trying to FIX a BROKEN 100" Philips PROJECTOR - Philips Screeneo HDP1690
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 сер 2024
- Hi, in this video I attempt to fix a very nice 100" projector made by Philips. It is called the Screeneo HDP1690, and it is portable with a very short throw. Ideal to place next to the wall that you want to project to.
It was sold on eBay as no power. I believe they were very expensive when they were released a few years ago.
Let's see if it can be fixed!

Remember that this is just for entertainment and I am not an expert in these repairs. The processes in the video may not be the best way, the correct way or the safest way to fix these things. I do love fault finding and trying to fix broken things, so I hope that comes across in this 'Trying to FIX' series. Many thanks, Vince.

Thanks for watching 👍
Plainrock124 kept destroying things
Not only that, He also destroying 2 Tesla Model Ss
Yep
@@minghuhai7903 yeah hes a monster
Liar

My favorite part of a trying to fix video is when Vince is admitting defeat, and then you look at the video and there are 20 minutes left and you just know hes going to pull it off!
same
SPOILER ALERT :/
@@Zooumberg I don't read the comments in tell after i watched the whole entire video because of spoilers like is
@@djpainkiller3326 yeah I shouldn't have either.
"Let me unpack it and show you it not working"
Best unboxing channel ever.
Honest unboxing!
Imagine if then it suddenly started working :)))
I did the same with an HDP1550 Screeneo, it works! Press all buttons, then release all, exept ok + power. Projector will boot into a strange Android menue, wipe all user data and reboot
fixing things by pressing all the buttons at once, now that's a classic
Your level of patience for this fix is award worthy!! 👏🏼 🥇
My old Screeneo HDP1550TV it was broken and after 4 years without using it, I have been able to fix it, thanks to this video
Very nice indeed! These things are incredibly expensive, so to get it working is a fantastic result! Well done, Vince 👍
@Ellis The DJ There's several other similar comments, why pick on me? Also, why would you read the comments before watching the video?
@Ellis The DJ There was nothing malicious about my comment. I watched the video and I shared my thoughts. That's what the comment section is there for. I did not write a comment to upset you or to ruin your evening, so if that has happened, I am truly sorry. But please don't direct all your anger at me for something so trivial. Thanks.
@Ellis The DJ Well, I do pay a Patreon subscription to be able to watch the videos early and comment on them if I choose to. I'm sorry that I haven't conducted myself in the way that you would like, but it's happened and we all need to get on with our lives. No hard feelings - I'll choose my congratulatory words better next time 👍
Thanks Steve, yes I think this was well over a grand when it was released. Shame it is not 1080p but the good sound is definitely an added bonus. Sorry about the spoiler stuff. I need to remember to put the spoiler saver in even for the patrons, please don't stop with your comments. Bit late now but I have added in the spoiler saver..."shut the stable door after the horse has bolted" 👍
@@Mymatevince Thanks Vince! 👍
Incredible, thanks to your video, I could fix my screeneo waiting since 4 years in the cupboard...I had lost hope!
The key combination is a bit tricky but at the end it works! Thanks a lot again
Vince you are a tonic for us all chap... I love your videos, I have learnt so much following your channel. Thank you for sharing your talent
Your fault finding capability is amazing.
Fantastic fix Vince. Nice to watch how your mind gave up and then rallied round to carry on. A lesson for all of us not to give in too early.
Think it's brilliant to see how far your channel has come along but more so your level of skill & fixing things. Especially enjoy your soldering skills & your persistence into getting things fixed. Keep up the great work Vince, your doing a great job 👍🏻
Easily the best vid I’ve watched in ages. Not only were you fixing a project I have, I felt you talking directly to me.
I have seen so many of your videos that I recite the MMV Massive list along with you. Please never ever stop the work that you have been doing.
2:29 It is the MMV Mahusive in this video.
It was fun watching you fix this. I have a VAVA 4K Laser Projector and it has been a god send during COVID. Watching movies is like having my own theater.
Vince you’re a National Treasure 👍
this was such a roller coaster of emotions lol. LOVED the video. Glad it got working at the end.
Amazing timing! I just picked up a not working projector from a yard sale yesterday for $5(nothing fancy). I'm still trying to diagnose the issue with it. I will anxiously continue watching your video to see if I get some ideas. Thanks MMV!
When I didn't have the remote for a goodwill stereo I ended up using an old raspberry pi ~ just a thought. This was some great puzzle sport viewing - well done!
NIce job Vince that looks class your perseverance paid off in the end. That will look class when you're partying in the garden in the Summer with some beers! slainte!
That's awesome , I thought it was a fail but it came back to life great job Vince
Thanks Eric, big thanks for watching and leaving helpful comments on a wide range of my videos recently. Also Merry Christmas 👍👌🎄
@@Mymatevince Merry Christmas to you as well
This man has far more perseverance than you and I.
You are my hero, I had the same problem with this projector and I couldn’t find anything online. You really made my day and my week
Agree with JAW Media, CONGRATS 700K Subs. Great community that's been built off your channel!
Also you should trust your gut more often 😉. I had to deal with many projectors in various classrooms when I taught radio theory. Almost all would have various issues at times and a combination of buttons needed to be pressed at start-up to get into the maintenance menus. Most of the time it was for resetting the lamp hours as a lot of projectors track how many hours the lamp has been in operation and will not turn on until the lamp is replaced (or hour count was reset). Great Video!
Thanks man, I agree, such an unbelievably helpful bunch!!!!
@Ellis The DJ obviously LOL. Lamps often last longer than the hours indicate though. So in a pinch I never had a problem resetting the hours and replacing the lamp later on.
The excitement in your hands made me think of how loud you wanted to be lol. Great job!
A very good Friday morning and you all from Wellington Somerset
Nice! My Sister and Brother in law use a projector for there kids and there little friends in the garage or basement with some popcorn and snacks and they have a blast!
2 camera angles! Vince is getting closer and closer to doing a live stream!!! Can't wait! All jokes aside, this was an amazing fix, Vince. One of my favorites!
Gotta love the Vince quiting only to give it another try videos
Thanks! I fixed my old projector by your video😊.
Vince wins the day yet again. Great recovery.
At 5:20, the black heatsink in the top right corner looks like a corner broke off. Might indicate it took a really hard fall or bump to let that happen. The heatsink looks like to be over some kind of harddisk, probably for the firmware/software. If that corner took such a hard hit, the disk might be faulty - which would explain why it was stuck on the startscreen. Probably also good to put a new one in.
Good catch ! This is probably what was rattling around inside in the end.
Well done mate that was awesome.
Your tenacity paid off big time.
Knowing to press all the buttons to force a reset was epic.
I think what happened is someone tried to update a corrupted or wrong version software and it bricked the machine. You reset the firmware to the factory. Nice one!
700k subs Vince!! Awesome 👌
Thanks mate 👍
Halfway through this fix I subscribed
It's been a few months since I've watched one of these videos and the production quality has come a long way. Good stuff.
DUAL CAMERA ANGLES REPAIR GUY. EPICO!
You should try doing some drone repair videos. They are really popular right now. And whether you do a cheap one from China or an expensive one I think people would really be into those videos now. So many people have them and so many people have broken ones. Obviously the ones with broken motors won’t be very interesting, but if you get some that have problems with the main boards, I’m sure loads of people would be interested.
Like your videos, mate. It would be wise for you to build a capacitor discharger. You probably have everything you need to do it (thicker gauge silicone cable, resistor, probe, heat shrink, stick, banana plug with a wall jack or some other way to connect the far end to ground. It will avoid arcing/damage and be much safer than bridging the leads with snips ;)
It's always the way, you start having a go something and it starts to work when you should be going to bed ready for the work the next day. Buzzing for you though, well done!
I am so happy that the Projector is working again. and its reminds me on my own 5€ Projector, that won't stay on. With a bit of luck i could reset the lamp counter. and it works until today. Thaks for that Video.
MMV Mahusive?
What a great upload. Thank you for this Vince, I actually want 1 of these now. Swap you for an R2D2 (only fixed once) lol
🤣🤣
Soooo glad you got that sorted. Well done mate. Another nice addition to your home for film nights with the popcorn out and the curtains closed. 👍🏻 Great video.
Also don't forget that some mobiles have IR blaster, that could be an option to remote control the projector.. Great job 👍👍
Totally awesome you got this Projector working. I know it must have been frustrating but I am glad you stuck with it. I love these vids keep it up.
I like the new credit roll music.
Fantastic repair =D Lovely result!!!
Thanks Chris 👍 I'd like to see if hitting all the buttons still works on a Spectrum 48K...from memory it only worked on the older games. I remember there was a fireman game (can't remember the name) and when you got into the code it said 'HELLO HACKERS'
My best friend had a Commodore 64 and he was so jealous that he couldn't get into the code. He used to beat the hell out of his keyboard to no avail. It felt so much like the film WarGames at the time. Fun times!
@@Mymatevince Hehe =D
That comment which spoils the vid lol
If in doubt, press all the buttons at once and hope it goes beep! Resetting to factory defaults was the way to go. I doubt you would have needed the firmware update, then.
17:53 "I can see a light! I can see a light!" 😆
awesome end result vince loved the video well done,. I often wonder what happens with all the things you fix ie do u sell them on or give them to family and friemds or just keep them, stay safe and see you in your next video.
Got some Blues Brothers flashbacks,
I SEE THE LIGHT!
DO YOU SEE THE LIGHT?
YES, I SEE THE LIGHT!
100" 720p is pretty good in my mind! very cool find!
What a nice little projector and it works very very well now.
Somebody probably tried a dodgy update or something similar that crashed the system and you managed to reset it without knowing lol. Another great video
Utterly brilliant again. Well done Vince.
Small note on those wires you pointed out that fit into each other. It's likely the colours are there to be a reference for what wire goes where. Blue for left, or "bLue", and Red for Right.
i just purchased paetron and hope you appreciate it and thanks so much you are amazing :D
Thanks you Jan 👍👍👍👍
The gray leads with the small coaxial plugs are WIFI connections.
For 720p, I would be very happy with this. Great job Vince!
What a roller coaster ride!
Hah! The way the video was displaying for me it almost looked like the bag had something inside of it struggling to escape! Lovely fix.
Wow Vince, that was a great come back. You persevered with it and really thought outside the box with this, In a strange kind of way you actually hacked it. It would be cool to try and find out the exact button press combination you did to get back into that menu again.
Persistence pays off!
Good work Vince 👍🤩
Sometimes these fixes can be a nightmare but I really love it when you don't give up thank you vince ❤
Nice accidental fix Vince.
Playing piano buttons did the trick ,and good on you for your dogged perseverance .
I applaud your tenacity
Now ready to finish my Sunday evening viewing with the latest mustie1 video.
More Sunday videos Vince, pretty PLEASE ?
If you can't get a remote for this you can download an app to android or ios phone from the phillips website and use that to control it.
Yes another video that I can watch while having a cuppa! as always excellent video vince I always enjoy these type videos!
Well done, the search to wonder! Great!
Well Done Vince, great bit of kit for £100. Mick 👍🍻
Cheers Mick 👍

That's a real cool projector, perfect for "big screen" gaming or watching movies, like You said! The reason why it wasn't accepting the usb stick or SD-card most likely was, cause it was expecting them to be FAT32 formatted, where most newer, bigger SD-cards and usb sticks use exFAT partitioning, which it couldn't read. You can use linux or a windows program that can format large external storage space to fat32. I think it's simply called "fat32 formatter"That was a really great find someone gave up on too early. I wouldn't mind having one of those projectors myself!
Also sometimes the firmware file name and file extensions has to be changed in order to install it. That's at least how it works with usb bios flashback on pc motherboards.
Your best videos are always the ones you don't give up on! (I have an old Sony Bravia KDL-65W850C that's stuck on boot loop..never been able to force a firmware upgrade from USB might try your all-finger button press trick ...Never know!)
You know the thing will get repaired when vince has no more idea and is about to leave it broken but you only are at the 3/4 of the videos length :)
17:52 NO Vince run away from the light!
I think maybe plugging in an Ethernet cable and connecting it to the internet might have got you past that screen. Thought of it once you got to that recovery screen. Glad you got it fixed!
I love your videos, please please keep making them
Amazing fix Vince - You're getting really good at this stuff mate!
Thank you. That is a dream caravan hollyday Entertainment system!
Nice work!
Thanks Anders, yes, I'm tempted to buy a pop up projector display for it 👍
@@Mymatevince Hi Vince. I used to make my own projectors years ago using lcd panels, freznels etc they were great projects. I painted a screen with the maxxmudd paint formuler which adds reflective silver/aluminium to the paint which boosts the colour and contrast of the picture. It enables me to have the lights on in the room or even use it in the daytime and still have a good picture. The paint was very cheap compared to the same performance built screen. Works amazingly well and I still use the screen with my current 1080p Epson projector and looks so much better than just projecting on the wall. Here's the link to the maxxmudd forum if you are ever interested where they have the links to best paints, "for here in the UK too" , mixing ratios etc.

Why did you kick me from the FB fan club?
All I asked was for you not to spoil the videos, by posting early, and you kicked me out, can you explain your reasoning?
@@harryhot your problem is solved, you did not lessen to my argument and i do not have time for democracy in the group.
@@andersmmvfc.8376 so you think it's ok to spoil peoples enjoyment, and to kick them, because you don't have the time?
If you don't have time to deal with a genuine request to stop spoiling the videos for me and others, then why have you set up a fan page, which requires your time?
To just kick me, because you're spoiling things for me and others, is just plain rude, and shows that your argument for spoiling things is weak at best.
If all else fails, press every single button works a treat!! lol great video Vince, shame it was a quick and easy fix.
27:33 the real highlight of the day 😂😂, great video vince well done mate 👍 💯
Had a similar remote problem with my Epson projector repair, then I remembered my Huawei phone has a ir blaster as standard, working perfectly now.
You have now been bitten by the projector bug. Soon you’ll want a 1080p projector etc. I’m on my third projector now and My first projector I got from eBay(Tradera in Sweden). I paid 100 SEK(about £12)for it because it wouldn’t start. I opened it up and there was a cable between the power supply that was loose. It just needed to be plugged in and I had myself a working projector. Although it was only 480p but it was a brilliant find.
Nice device, good fix :) I know that "sinking feeling" when repair is not going well, for example last weekend I resoldered detached power wire back to PCB and there still is no continuity. Forgot to check the wire itself, there must be a break somewhere in it. Thought the only fault was that it was detached from the board.
I got one, it's a good bit of kit :) I think my one as got a TV tuner in it as well? It came out back in 2014sh? It was around £1000.00 in the day.
Great video!!! Loved the determination! Really wish we knew what initially caused the issue.
I almost died laughing when the dual camera angles came out 😂🤣😂🤣😅🤣
Vince dual cam for the next episode and nice job
Brilliant Vince 👏 well done 👏
Thanks Jinxy 👍
hi i had alot of gear of ebay in the past and i will say there alot out there that is money pits you were lucky with this i think we would love to know how many don't get fix so far
I think a lot of projector makers forget that sound needs to exist, and just expect you to have a seperate speaker system added to make it worth a damn, but some people just want to carry a projector to a place and use it as an all in one thing. and all they need to do is to grab the speakers out of a bluetooth speaker and shove them in the chasis.
26:15 can u please show exactly what configuration of the buttons you did to reset this completely.
Big, big thank you
Movie of the week BULLITT
Enjoy
Great video, I never have any good luck with projectors, 👍👍👍👍👍
Nice video Vince!
This makes a refreshing change vince, liked every minute of this 👌 :)
At this point I'm sure that Vince could fix a eurofighter typhoon
Sometimes a projector will refuse to start/turn on because the lamp hours are too high. You can reset the hours with a remote on some projectors, otherwise holding down the power button while PLUGGING in the projector can reset/override the lamp hours completely.
Projectors always have hidden menus and key presses that aren't documented.
Also remeber that the light only runs for so many hours (1500 or something depending on the light type.. usually there is a counter in the menu to see how long it has been on in total or per the light that is in now) Always let it cool down before moving it so the filament can cool down and it does not break when you move it.. if it's dropped while on.... the bulb can break as well.. you might not see it broken but the filament could still be...
From the jaws of death! Great job! Thanks for the video!
Excellent video great work man.
Cheers Jake 👍👍
