Review on πŸ”Œ BlueRigger Component Video Cable with Audio (6FT, RCA- 5 Cable, 1080i Support) - Compatible with DVD Players, VCRs, Camcorders, Projectors by Demond Clenney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

You look good. They are

I bought these cables to connect my new TiVo to my TV because I don't have an HDTV so wanted to use component cables. Beautiful, durable cables. I connected everything, the picture is clear and even slightly better than my old composite cables. But then I looked at the TiVo channel guide on the screen and the screen became static, like an image, with vertical and horizontal lines, but the audio stayed. When I returned to live the picture was fine. Then I tried to access the TiVo menu and the same thing happened. Just emailed support to see if these cables work with TiVo (don't see why they shouldn't). t have numerous feedbacks on image issues. UPDATE: I have changed my original rating from 1 star to 5 stars. The next day I got an answer from BlueRigger to my problems and as a first step I was asked to make sure that all the connections were in the correct slots. you were Luckily I work alongside the technology department and one of my colleagues suggested it might be the video output format, the TV wasn't able to read the setting TiVo was dictating. So when I set up the TiVo, although the TV screen responded to higher video output up to 1080i (ie the test pattern responded to a change to a higher format), it turned out that my TV could only handle 480i. Everything cleared up when I chose this particular video format. It's a nice, sharp picture that seems better than the standard composite cables I used with my old TiVo. The customer service department responded quickly and kindly and would definitely help if there were any further problems.
