Works great with Raspberry Pie/Retro Pie setup

Works great with my Retro Pie setup! It took a bit of fiddling to get a sharp picture on my 1080 monitor. Here are the steps: 1.) Make sure you use the included USB cable and plug it into your Pie (or any other place that has power, but Pie was easy) 2.) SSH into your Pie with Putty or similar 3.) Run "sudo nano /boot/config.txt" 4.) Now that you are in the config, remove the # in front of the lines for "hdmi_group" and "hdmi_mode" 5.) Set hdmi_group = 826.) Save the file by pressing Ctrl+O and

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Easy maintainability

Complete garbage! Two serial adapters failed after a few weeks

After first buying this Ugreen adapter it completely stopped working a few weeks after receiving it only to replace it with another Ugreen adapter that it does the same and accidentally dies after about 3.5 weeks. Of course it just happens outside of the return window so now I'm stuck with this junk adapter, wasted my money and now have to find/buy another brand. I've used both adapters with multiple monitors, computers, and HDMI cables, so a troubleshooting was done to ensure it's the adapters

Pros
  • Looking forward to
Cons
  • There are problems

Works with Xbox One S

Our Panasonic Plasma TV still works after 13 years but only supports 480p/1080i via HDMI. I just bought a new Xbox not knowing that it is unique to all of our HDMI sources and only supports 720p/1080p. A look at the manual revealed that the television supports 720p via VGA. I didn't have high expectations for this inexpensive device, but it came in nice packaging and worked first time! Pin-sharp HD picture plus high-quality stereo sound. (The Xbox did not require the included USB power cable.)

Pros
  • Useful beyond original purpose
Cons
  • Band

Great fix for burned out HDMI ports on TV

As another reviewer noted, my old pre-release LG Smart TV, which is probably about 15 years old, suddenly shut down when all the HDMI ports weren't more worked. I googled the problem and found a guy on youtube (love youtube how to do this!) who demonstrated on a similar LG to mine how to use the PC/VGA port on the back as an HDMI input for a TV signal (DISH , in my case) with a 1080i image instead of using a not-so-good analog AVI port. This UGREEN HDMI to VGA adapter worked like clockwork andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Safety

New life for my TV monitor

I play Roku with it on my HP monitor. I bought a 27 inch monitor which turned out to be too big to use as a monitor so I decided to use it as a TV but this monitor has no audio output. I used this to use VGA for Roku and use audio to connect to a soundbar with a subwoofer. This decision turned out to be better than buying a TV as I was able to get excellent picture quality with great sound (most budget TVs have poor built in audio). PS: Do not buy a plug without an external power supply toโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Robust workmanship
Cons
  • old

Works well for HDMI to VGA adapter

I have a very nice Sony Bravia TV that the HDMI ports are not working. For a while I just gave it a signal over a cable line, but I wanted to use Comcast on that. After checking that the VGA port still works, I decided to buy this adapter. There were some that were slightly cheaper, but there were questions as to whether they would work with a "TV Stick". I chose this one because it specifically said it would work with this type of device. I'm happy to report that it works without any problems.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak

Ideal! Saved my TV from a trip to the landfill!

The HDMI ports on my silent (non-smart) TV stopped working. We don't have a cable and just used our Fire Stick to stream. Unfortunately, you must have HDMI ports to use the Fire Stick. The TV repairman said it was probably the motherboard and not worth fixing. Before I threw the TV in the landfill, I had an idea to find an adapter to see if I could get the Fire Stick to work through the VGA port. I came across this product and was delighted. Not only does it convert video, but it also sendsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Ugly packaging
