It doesn't work in reverse. You need a different converter from HDMI to RCA, if you want to connect newer devices with HDMI video outputs to extremely old TVs that don't have HDMI outputs but have RCA audio and video output
I know the solution just keep turning off your system on and off and it will eventually work also have the setup on hdmi mode have everything connected

Hi. You made that look simple. We tried to help parents (and husband and I are old so that’s telling you) we purchased an older replacement VCR/DVD player for them we unhooked everything and plugged in the new one and display say “device not found”. From your video I see that we did not have it plugged into usb for power! Could that be why. Grandpa tried to assist and unhooked it before we got there. What do you think?
