I had the Samsung Freestyle do this in ambient mode perfectly

Return it and get something with more lumens, first of all. 4 digits ideally. The Freestyle's lumen rating to cost ratio is pathetic. LG has several with much higher lumen ratings and is a notable brand. Otherwise, if you're wanting to stick to something small, wait for [the Samsung Premiere 5](https://www.projectorreviews.com/samsung-introduces-new-premiere-projectors-at-ces-2024/) outlined a little bit in that link-- but need to see it officially released to find out what the Lumens are.
