Nothing beats Revain Choice $12 Converter

Question: Does this converter stretch a 4x3 image on a 16x9 monitor or display it in its original aspect ratio? Answer: No, if you connect a 4:3 source with the aspect ratio VID2HDCON2, the display with the 16:9 aspect ratio will have "black bars" on the sides. Atha, StarTech.com Support from StarTech-com, November 19, 2020 You are wrong. It stretches the image on the 55-inch Dell E5515H monitor. Also, the picture is blurry. It's designed for a TV (16-235 limit), not a computer monitor (fullโ€ฆ

Excellent quality composite/S-Video converter

A few months ago I bought an Orei 901 converter, but I connected the wrong power cord and burned the unit. I liked it but it was pretty cheap and wouldn't last forever anyway. So I did some more research and really wanted to try this Startech VID2HDCON2 but probably like you I couldn't find any reviews. So I bit the bullet and bought it for $86 and a cheaper alternative, the Ruipuo Svideo to HDMI Converter for $23. I did some basic testing on the N64, see attached photos. I don't have any fancy

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Crumpled

Very good performance for analogue conversion

I was looking for options to convert old VHS family videos to digital and settled on this Startech unit. Short answer; It is a very well made device that does its job well. My other attempts included several other devices and methods. The first was the Dazzle Hollywood DV Bridge. This device takes composite video and converts it to a DV stream over FireWire. I recorded the stream using Adobe Premiere (Elements) or Virtual Dub. Overall video quality was decent, but not as good as the originalโ€ฆ
