Be careful watch what you buy because they come in 2 different forms!!!! I had to learn the hard way! 1-Comes as RCA Out to HDMI in and the other Comes RCA In to HDMI Out! Pay close attention to what you need! I tried to connect a Chromecast in my workshop and ended up buying 2 devices. I bought the RCA Input to HDMI Output, but needed HDMI Input to RCA Output! Great to the point video and explanation! Thanks! Definitely wish I would have seen this vid before buying the wrong device and getting upset when it didn't work.
You don't actually need the power on this adapter despite what the box says. I think that the usb port is left over from the design of the RCA to usb adapter. For anyone looking to buy this item, it works, however text is very hard to read.
I just found out today that this exists. At the time I had not been able to connect this kind of component to a modern tv. I'm going to try it on my wii to see if it works
I have the same converter and I have a 14 "Sony Trinitron CRT connected to my pc via HDMI, I use it for retro games, by default the device forces my TV to show 720p screens although I understand that technically it cannot with both the TV What I did was configure as the 2nd monitor with 640x480 resolution and it seems to be working fine, am I forcing something?
Thanks for the video, I wish you would have taken it a step further and showed the converted picture on the TV. When looking at these online there are so many reviews that go both ways. Some says it works some say it doesn’t.
If I'm converting RCA to HDMI, then when I turn on the TV, wouldn't I choose HDMI as my source? It sounds like you're saying at 3:40 that I should choose RCA as the input.....
I want to use my DVD player with hdmi output as a CD player to connect to a vintage stereo receiver. Would this box be necessary or would I just need the hdmi to rca cord and plug it straight into receiver? Thanks!
I also have a MINI AV2HDMI converter but mine has 720P / 1080P switches and not NTSC / PAL. I also have to get a power supply. I'm trying to connect a refurbished Toshiba DVD/ VCR recorder combo, but don't know if my MINI is a compatible adapter. I also don't understand why the PC HDMI input doesn't serve as a power source to begin with. Then, if I get it connected, do I need an app or video software to play tapes / discs.
Does it work the other way around if I want to plug an RCA cable into a TV that only has HDMI inputs? I want to plug my PS2 into my new smart TV, but it does not have an AV input, just HDMI.
I was watching fast and the furious . A dude was gaming it in his car before the race it made me laugh but now I’m going to throw my x box in my truck lol thanks for the video
Wonderful explanation, thank you! I want to now if I can plug in my Namco old game joy stick to my PC, it only has yellow and white rca cables...is that possible?
Your demo was to convert hdmi in to rca out. I want to convert rca in to hdmi out. How do you do this? I have cables to do it, but they don't work - no sound or vision.
Hi there, great info! Is this the best way to connect a Denon amp (which does not have HDMI) + traditional speakers to a Samsung slim OneConnect box? Or is it better via an Optical Cable (analog ue to Digital converter)? Thanks!
I have a question about HDMI2AV. I have a laptop with hdmi port and hdmi male to male cable, i also have a portable dvd player with av ports. What i want to know is, can i use this product to use my portable dvd player as a secondary monitor for my laptop?
Hello, I bought Digitech composite adapter to connect PS4 to InFocus Screen Play 4805 projector, and I have already done what you did in this video. But my picture is only black and white! Why is this?? Help appreciated
If you want to connect your N64 or GameCube to an HD TV/Monitor using HDMI input you need an RCA TO HDMI Converter. You need an RCA to HDMI converter. Make sure it has RCA input and HDMI output. I connected my PS2 and VCR to my HDMI PC Monitor and worked well. Most of the converters have a switch that sets the output resolution 720p or 1080p I recommend for VCRs and gaming consoles the 720p resolution and for DVD Players the 1080p.
I am trying to OUTPUT a signal from an old Sony video Camera (RCA plugs) and play It's content INPUTING to a New (2021) LG OLED TV via the HDMI Cable port. The television does not have a A/V INPUT Port. i. e. reversing the process discussed in your TH-cam Video. Will this work??
i'm buying an old x box 360 slim from a bro friend... those 2 cable red yellow white might not hook up to my new monitor? i have an old tv that have those 3 holes in my tv?
I am trying to connect a Roku device to a Sunfire surround sound 5:1 receiver. The receiver is an older vintage model so it does not have HDMI connections. So, can I use this device to send the signal to my receiver and then send the video signal from receiver to the TV?
Kindly guide me if it would be possible to get an audio output from a smart tv to a wired external sub-woofer sound system using this device?! Awaiting your reply. Thannk n regards.
Have you heard of issues such as no sound coming out? And the picture is not bad but when it comes to reading menus the writing is very distorted not able to read?
I have an old DVD/VCR Magnavox with RCA cables in the back and a Samsung 4K smart tv that only allows HDMI there are no RCA ports at all. I bought a singular chord with the RCA thingies on the end of one side and then the HDMI on the other side to connect them and it won’t freaking work and I tried to call Samsung and they pretty much said there’s nothing they can do about it and it just won’t connect no matter what I do I don’t understand. My Chord doesn’t have this box
Is there anyway you know of how to connect my old DVD / VCR Combo to my new HDMI television which hasn't got any Scart sockets on the back of the telly
I have the white one I hear sound through the analogs but it sounds faint. I use a analogs stereo adaptor other end is for 3.5 mm Jack . Will that. Work? Not using it for composite video. Just to pass HDMI audio from my Blu-ray player which only has HDMI out
I am using an old TEAC Audio/Video Surround Receiver (ag-v8520) which unfortunately has no HDMI connections. So what I am trying to do is connect my Sony Blu-ray Disc Player (BDP-S3700) to it so that I can watch video with sound from the Sony's USB Flash Drive input. I have been able to do this by connecting the Sony through the use of Coaxial Digital Cable to RCA Adapter into the receiver's DVD/Video 3 RCA connection. This has allowed me to watch and hear anything except 1080p in mkv format. Mp4 is no problem, nor is 720p mkv. So I am wondering if you know of anyway I might also be able to get 1080p in the mkv format? Thanking you in advance for all that you do to help us electronics dummies. :)
Nevermind. :) Sometimes I just don't think. All I have to do is change (rename) the extension from mkv to mp4 (they're basically the same container) and everything plays just fine.
Bro for my led tv no HDMI ARC OR no optical cable or no aux cable options not available bro just I have only normal hdmi port available is there any chance to connect my tv to 2.1soundBar
I am still confused I bought a new Hisense Smart TV Model# 65R6E1 and have a Yamaha Surround sound Model RX-V371. And want to hook my WII (the older version) up to the TV and surround sound. How can I do that? Thank you
I have a converter with the same exact settings, it looks very similar. For some reason, my TV will still not pick up any video signal from my PS4. I don’t know wby
Hello I have a older television and it happens I lost the remote some time back but I’m not too sure on how to switch the output I’ve tried almost everything please could someone help me out
These don't always work. I tried my Sony DVD to 3 different TV's using hdmi to RCA connector adapter I tried one adapter from Amazon and one from Walmart and it doesn't work when setting TV's up to HDMI port. Old RCA cable works fine with two of the TV's, but new TV's now have only HDMI ports. Maybe some older dvd players are just not compatible using it's RCA ports. I have a coax( RCA like out) and a Svideo out on the dvd player.... maybe there's another work around.
Hello and thank you for your informative and helpful easy to follow along videos. ... I NEED YOUR HELP!!! I'm wanting to hook up a roku player to my CRT TV ... I already have it set up with an adapter to my BLU RAY DVD PLAYER for movies and that's working fine... But can i also connect an older model ROKU player? ... Side note.. I Have been able to get the Roku player home screen up, however, I don't have the remote to it. (Which I believe there's an app for that that'll work or i can order one) but my question to you is, will i have to disconnect one to use the other? ... And... Don't Roku players need to connect to the internet for the channels??? Do you know how i could get a connection to the internet??? Would that be possible? ... Any help is greatly appreciated!
You need one that has compatibility backwards. Your input will be component and your output HDMI , there are some with both compatibilities . It tells you on the description of what ever converter you are going to buy, it specifies . Min 1:08 , check it out it has the picture. th-cam.com/video/v7sPtCh6q_U/w-d-xo.html
How big is the market for a device like this? Surely a converter that works the other way would be the big seller? I would have thought that the sort of people who would buy the latest accessories would have bought the latest TVs already (I.e. Ones with lots of HDMI ports). Why buy a PS5 /Nintendo Switch etc. to hook it up to a clapped out TV?
I’m trying to find one to work with my car. Got a (new to me) 2007 vehicle with a built in DVD player and I would love to hook my Nintendo switch up to it for my kids to play on long trips
I received an older projector for free that I want to use with my Roku to have movie nights outside. If I can spend 20-30 bucks to make that happen vs. having to purchase a newer projector then I am fine with that.
Please Help me. I have a Hisence 50 inch Roku and trying to set up a ps2. I bought the HDMI cable and the mini connector but keep getting " disk error" and/ or "No connection". Pls can anyone help? Thank you for your time
I bought the converter at Walmart and I’m trying to connect to my switch. I’m super bummed because everytime i attempt to set it up, nothing happens. I even tried it with a roku as well, yet, nothing. Do I just have a bad converter or is my tv just too old.
I cant connect our samsung smart tv to LG xboom. I already use optical cable and hdmi and also bought that thing analog but still is not working. Can you help me? Thanks in advance. 😁

i want rca output to rca input
Big help thank you 😘😘😘
Thank you
Yup, happened to me but still no audio out of my stereo...
Thank you for this information. You just saved me from buying the wrong one.
You don't actually need the power on this adapter despite what the box says. I think that the usb port is left over from the design of the RCA to usb adapter. For anyone looking to buy this item, it works, however text is very hard to read.
Can you use just the audio cables only if you want audio only? To connect to analog speakers?
I'm trying to connect my sub which has rca inputs and outputs to my tv that only has HDMI. Is this still possible with this gadget?
What if you need to go the other way? New Smart TV with HDMI ports to a DVD/VHS player with only RCA connectors. Will it still work?

Is it safe to use this converter for long hours like 8 to 10 hrs continuously ???? Pls reply👍👍👍👍
can I use this to go from my comptr h.d.m.i. output to an old stereo recvr with r.c.a. inputs?
HDMI was the input and rca the output. Will it work correctly reversed?
Can I use that vice versa? Coz my TV doesnt have RCA and I need to connect it to my amplifier without HDMi?
Thanks for the video, I wish you would have taken it a step further and showed the converted picture on the TV. When looking at these online there are so many reviews that go both ways. Some says it works some say it doesn’t.
i have had it both work and not work with different displays
Will this product allow an HDMI TV to output sound to an outdoor portable speaker that only has a L/R hookup?
Can this be used in reverse , HDMI from TV to RCA in a DVD/VCR player?
