Thanks for this! I had found two other videos but it was full of annoying music that made hearing the person talking impossible and ugly clunky animations. This was quick clear and concise with proof of it working ie demo.
Thanks RGG! This was super helpful!
Let's say you wanted to plug one of your retro units into this adapter, then plug that into a HDMI switcher. Would that cause lag, or input lag? Not sure if you have a HDMI switcher, but if you do, would you mind testing. That would be super helpful.
Thank you. I've just bordered mine and for a good price. I look forward to it arriving, especiially sinse I've heard your good review of it.
At last someone with a demo 😊
I bought this exact adapter and unfortunately it does not work on my 4K 65 inch television. I was using it with my Nintendo 64 and the TV is a Samsung
It's meant for 1080p or 720p, I have a 4k tv in the living room and it works fine the picture is just smaller than the actual tv, but I was using the integrated av ports
Does a AV2HDMI work paired with a 4k Gamer Pro? I'm just wondering, this might open the door for other uses. Like using a VCR to watch True 4k😅
I have a dvd player with rca and S video ports, and a new Samsung tv with usb and 3 hdmi ports (1 is used for ARC). Will this work using the tv usb for the adapter power supply?
I have an old rca splitter box from Radioshack. Would it be compatible with that converter? So i can plug multiple consoles from the box to the adapter
I'm looking around for the right converter to use from streaming. The demo you gave shows an output aspect ratio is 16:9, but does it retain 4:3 if that's the input? That seems to be an issue for some of these upscalers.
I don't believe that it does retain 4:3 since I'm using a N64 with this which should be 4:3 by default. In this case I do prefer it altering it to 16:9 for the modern day tvs but I do see your point and why one would want that maintained.
@@RetroGamingGuyput a video of this using Dreamcast
how do you stop the blue screen?
That exact unit arrived today but I have yet to try it. My TV's do have the ports, I am just interested in seeing the upscale image to sharpen the images and improve color contrast.
was it good? bad?
I just got this today for my n64. I've noticed that the screen is fairly blurry but works with no lag. I'm playing on a 55 inch smart tv. Any ideas?
I have one of those, but mine flickers when there's a white image on screen.
I bought this converter for my Toshiba soundbar, but it does not work with my Samsung TV.
This adapter work to conect mini dv camcorder to microsoft computer?
I have one but the color doesn’t display right it has a green tinge to it is there a fix for this ?
Same here, did u find any solutions?
Does this box work for connecting to laptops too?
I have a question... like about a week ago, I bought this converter off of Amazon to fix the atrocious graphics I was getting off of my onn Roku TV(with the wii mini)... it had the plugs for the av already built-in, but the graphics were just awful... I tried with this thinking it was gonna fix the issue.. well it did, but not at first. I thought the converter was a bust... but then two days later, I noticed the graphical quality has somehow skyrocketed up! WAY up! and it might possibly still be improving somehow. . I want to know if you or anyone reading this knows what's going on with this? Am a little scared that this might be slowly breaking or something. It'd be nice to know what in blazes is going on.
Edit: this is in fact a copy and paste from another video I also left this on. Just felt kinda paranoid enough to leave this disclaimer here in case I get accused of bot spam or something, lol.
Thanks for the video. Sadly, the adapter doesn't work on my setup. Maybe this comes from the fact that I'm using an N64 bought in Japan. I'll consider buying an adapter specific to the N64
did u plug the power on it? cause it does not turn on by itself, you have to buy a standalone power cord
@@myyoutubepage199u mean plug in the USB...
@@OkieDokedU mini usb. Usb is the rectangle one
@@myyoutubepage199 ya it has a mini USB, I'm just gonna go to game stop n get an actual converter instead of this ONN bs
@@OkieDokedU your converter did not work? mine worked perfectly no lag , no delay,
I got it today and it doesnt work with my new tv and n64 any suggestions?
I just tried that with the PS2, the picture was dark and blurry. Everything else though with it, the picture was a sight for sore eyes. So, when it comes to PS2, I recommend the PS2 to HDMI adapter. One downside though, It does NOT support PS1 games. The RGB setting does NOT work with it.
That adapter is even worse
Because it does not work with PS1 games and some of the DVD movies
@@BRIANOCONNOR2003 Yeah, I know, but that was the cheapest one I was able to find. When I play my PS1 games, I play them on my PS3.
But did you purchase this specific one? Because there are other brands too.
would you recommend this over the other hdmi adapters
Not as familiar with others but I’ve used this one extensively and it works very nicely
How did you connect the rca cable with the console? What does the other end of the rca cable look like?
Will a Gamecube DOL 101 (with the Analog AV output port only) work with this?
I believe so
the gamecube dol-101 also has s video so use it instead
Will ps1 work and is it stretched the aspect ratio??? Thx!!!
@@jessegunn2033 did you see my reply to your other comment?
Can someone help me? I have the exact same adapter, but all I have is a blue screen. Please help.
I wonder what the 720p and 1080p toggle switch would look like in comparison...
That's funny you said that I just used this yesterday for my Xbox original to do a screen capture and I toggled each. Really didn't see much difference. Slightly different quality but not much at all. Probably because it's a older console.
@@RetroGamingGuy Thanks for the feedback! Maybe the toggle switch is influenced from more sophisticated upscalers, so could be a dummy switch. They tend to upscale SCART and S-Video to modern resolutions.
I’m trying to use this for my snes and all I get is sound and the blue screen, Ive tried everything and can only get sound. any tips?
Not sure what's going on there. I've used my snes with mine many times without issue.
I bought one and it just gives me a blue screen. Any tips on how to fix this issue ?
Not sure. Haven't experienced this issue. Maybe you got a bad adapter.
That is all I get too.
same man smh
Same here
no signal for me just black screen
how did you make it so you can play games from any region on your console?
Did you figure out out?I know how
Thanks bro
Any time
I have one but the screen is way darker than the original. Any fixes? I know I could got to tv settings but I shouldn’t have to and I don’t want to constantly change settings back and forth between ps2 and ps5
I'm not sure. I haven't experienced that issue with mine.
Mine is way too bright!
did you have to change video setting in ps2 with this adapter ?
I tried to do on gamecube but my TV said there is no connection. I'm been struggling to solve this problem. Do you have any ideas how to solve this?
Not sure could just be a bad unit perhaps.
if your gamecube has the digital av out then get the carby hdmi adapter
@@gamecubeplayer Its kinda expensive but the Picture is beautiful
Hi I just have a question, I have brought av2hdmi and all my gaming consoles work perfectly fine but only my nintendo 64 is giving me trouble, when I turn on Nintendo 64 it flashes the screen. Is there a way to fix it?
Unfortunately I'm not sure what's going on there. If it's working with everything else it can't be the converter. May be the console just isn't compatible with the converter. I haven't run across this issue myself unfortunately so not sure if anything can be done to resolve that issue.
@@RetroGamingGuy I have the same problem too, but it just flashes the words unsupported device on my TV screen when I turn on the N64, and my TV is a Vizio
@@VVV953 must be a compatibility issue. Haven't had that issue on any of my TVs.
I can play on the n64 but within 30 mins the game shutsdown?
I have this exact AV2HDMI Up scaler for my GameCube and its causing flickering... Any ideas how to fix?
Could just have a poor connection. I've heard a lot of people saying similar things. Maybe they're not being made as well lately. I've had mine over 2 years and it still works without issue on all my retro consoles.
@@RetroGamingGuy Im using swiss and until i launch a game the picture is fine
I have this same one and it keeps saying No Signal. No matter how long I wait or plug and unplug.
It's probably a bad unit I've never had any issues like that and I've used it on around 20 different retro consoles so far. Prob just defective. Try to exchange it for another one.
Is the USB just for power or can I use it with obs on my PC?
Just for power
@@RetroGamingGuy oh ok thanks
Can you use a phone charger to plug the power thing in
Can this work by connecting a PC to a CRT tv to display on crt tv ?
I don't think it goes that direct I think it only conveys one way
i have an 8ktv only , would it still run without lag?
Not sure
Our monitor keeps saying "no signal". Please help.
You have this connected with the usb cable to power it right?
same no signal just blackscreen
Does this work on ps3? I just get a blue screen that says ‘no signal’
Never tried on a ps3. Why not just use the hdmi port on the ps3?
I just use it for my ps2 slim to watch movies
does it work with playing ps1 games on ps2?
Yep
i have that exact one and couldn't get it to work with super nintendo or nintendo 64
That's weird. What happened when you tried? I actually just used it with SNES a couple hours ago.
@@RetroGamingGuy blue screen but I did get the audio and the n64 got no screen cause it sadly has died
Can't you just connect the USB cable to a USB outlet from the TV? I do that with my chromecast, works fine =)
Yes you can
I use this for my PS2 on my element tv but I get pixelated graphics?
Same lol I think it makes the PS2 look worst than it actually is
I just tried it, the picture was blurry and pretty dark. So, when it comes to the PS2, I prefer the PS2 to HDMI adapter for that, the will be a sight for sore eyes if you use a PS2 to HDMI adapter. One downside though, it does NOT support PS1 games. The RGB setting does NOT work on it.
My tv can use it but it makes everything a lot more Pixley
i don't trust RCA to HDMI adapters because a user name Westlife did a vid on one of these things and it's a hassle if u don't want ur captures to be stretched and tha audio inputs are actually backwards well idk if u had those issues and for those things, it made me not want to use a RCA to HDMI adapter at all
I had the HDMI2AV and it worked great. However, they do break easily.
Good to know. Haven’t come across any issues thus far but luckily they’re very inexpensive so if they do crap out it’s not much to replace. Amazon is also great with returns if it breaks during their return window.
Mines looks fuzzy don’t know if I got a defective one
It just stopped working after a move
One I bought doesn't even work
I tried this and it didn’t work unfortunately
Does this add Noticeable Input Lag?
yes but the retrotink devices have no input lag
I hadn't experienced lag on my end when using it. May depend on the game. Not sure. I only played a couple games with it.
@@gamecubeplayer What if your display has a game mode?
@@paulbell3682 this thing still has more input lag than the retrotink devices
Link for buy this?
Here it is
amzn.to/3yKKuQM
Will this work with a mini NES (Nintendo)?
The mini nes is already HDMI you don’t need an adapter
Game car name .?
I have the same one, games look so blurry it’s unplayable
Yeah I've heard a lot of negative responses lately from people with these. I'm thinking they're making them crappy now or there's different manufacturers making them because mine has been perfect for years now. I use it on several of my retro videos when using the original consoles and the video quality is perfect.
Jus bought one for original xbox and it look horrible
@@roccoloc100 same here bought it to play my GameCube on my Samsung 4k 50 inch TV I just assumed my TV settings were off but it looks bad
@@vividmatt3914 because it’s 4K play anything outputting 1080 /720 on 4 k will look blurry maybe if you’re tv has the settings to change to 1080p maybe
DUDE SAID N64 MILLION TIMES!!!!!!!
These things are crappy. I bought 2 and they have a buzzing sound. It's better to get a component to hdmi
Haven’t experienced that with mine been using it quite a bit but I’ll definitely be on the look out.
Can i use it for ps4?
nope
The PS4 already has an HDMI port. Therefore, you don't need the adapter for PS4.
