Customers find the HDMI converter works well with old consoles and smart TVs, is easy to set up, and consider it good value for money.
Now I can look for a tv without analog inputs. I use an analog security camera so it needs analog inputs. (Yellow, red, and white.) However with this inexpensive device just plug in to analog input than comes out HDMI. That what I call today’s technology and works great. Now I can look for any tv I want and don’t have to worry about analog inputs. Read more
Worked great hooking up an old DVD/VCR combo to a new Vizio Smart TV. Read more
Purchased the unit and it was delivered the next day 4/11/2024. I wanted to use the unit with an old Sony Tape Player, and an old Sony 5 disc CD Player. Fortunately, I had the appropriate connections to use from both of the players to the unit, as well as an HDMI for the other connection to a speaker system. In addition, I had a required plug in electrical conversion piece used for some old items that required it for charging. For ease of use, I decided to connect the unit to an older Sharp TV through one of the HDMI ports to play both players through the TV stereo speakers, without having to rewire anything else. CD Player: Only two of the three connections are required for this purpose, since my old CD player had only two outlet connections for stereo play. Turned on the TV, placed several discs into the CD player and hit PLAY. The TV indicated no signal, but the sound came through the TV stereo speakers with nice sound (used the TV remote to change sound volume). When the initial disc completed play, the next disc was loaded and player kept working. Only issue with this setup, the Artist and Song Titles did not show on the screen without a third signal connection. Once this setup was used for music background during our dinner hour, I decided to explore the Tape Player setup. TAPE Player: this player is a very old Sony unit, for DVD and Tape play. Replaced the two plug wires from CD player and inserted the three plug wiring from the Tape Player. My Tape trial play was a very old original Avengers tape, Steed & Ms. Peel, episodes. The display on the TV, black and white, was not as sharp as current projections, but was viewable with no distortions, and excellent sound. My DVD trial was from the original Spiderman movie. Very good video and sound through the movie. CONCLUSION: For my purposes this inexpensive little box has allowed me to use some “old players” and enjoy old items that I thought were lost to me forever. For that I give it the highest rating possible! Read more
This converter box is pretty well-made, and was very easy to use. There is minimal lag in the conversion between formats, but there is a very little bit still there. I use this box to convert HDMI to an audio coaxial, so I could hook it up into my Buttkicker base shaker. While the lag is there, for that functionality it’s a little less noticed. Nonetheless, it’s good to know before buying! I do appreciate how small the box is, and while it’s too bad you have to supply power externally, I guess it makes sense that the HDMI can’t power it.

Very reasonable cost. Works well for standard video signal. Not tested for DVD quality. Read more
Well, this works but my system doesn't . Read more
For the time that it DID work it was amazing...then 4 days ago the audio went out on it and then yesterday the picture went out and this last time was accompanied by a hot plastic smell.. the unit was warm and since then nothing has functioned at all...every time I turn it on theres nothing, no sound, no picture... it just heats up a bit and stays that way. It's possible that this is a one off sort of deal and like I said originally for the time it worked I was pretty impressed...though admittedly it hasn't left the best impression on me... I won't be buying it again Read more
Does exactly what I needed it to do. I have a VCR with components only plugged into this and into my TV and it works immediately. Plug and Play. Trickiest part was finding a place to plug this into for stand-alone power. Read more
