No AC Adapter!: Accessories and Supplies

This requires an AC adapter but is not included. I would rate this as an "average" product as I have yet to find an adapter.

Pros
  • Easy to Read Control Panel
Cons
  • Nothing Here

I needed the opposite. 😞

Not what you need. I think I need the opposite with the components marked as input and the HDMI side marked as output. I'm trying to connect an old VHS/DVD player to a new Smart TV.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Bad instructions

The best and easiest video converter on the market

Super simple, great product. Very good price. I didn't mind putting in my own cables and power supplies. The picture quality seems to be the best that can be achieved by converting the signal to analogue TV.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Problems encountered

Does not fit AV accessories

Had to be returned, did not work. I wouldn't shake hands with an HDMI device, so it didn't work with any of my inputs. I bought another brand, everything works. I don't know if it was just a defective unit or if they are all like that.

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • Negative present

Worked great! The best of accessories and consumables

MANY uses for this adapter! First I tried to make a homemade laptop out of an old portable DVD player and a Raspberry Pi. It worked on the first try! As mentioned in other reviews, you must connect all cables before turning on the adapter. After the first power on, it can only work with HDMI power or not. It worked with the Pi but not my PS4. Although maybe it was the cable. Good product!

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • I will add later

The picture quality is not very good.

Purchased to connect Roku to RCA video input. It worked, but the picture quality was very poor. It would have worked if nothing better was available, but I ended up not using it. The ant's text in the image was distorted and difficult to read, and the horizontal interference pattern repeated on the screen. I decided to go to Best Buy and try their version of the same type of adapter.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • old

Pretty useless to me

As others have noted this does not come with the required power adapter. The list should include this important information. I have an AC adapter that I can use, but that was the least of the issues. I tried this converter on two different TVs and got the same results. The frame of the video I wanted to show appeared and disappeared. When it was off the screen said it wasn't getting any input. no good for me

Pros
  • Slim design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Works perfectly! But there is a small oddity.

My 2005 Sansui is alive again! Great device, although it runs my Roku and Blu-ray players, picture quality and sound are great! (I love gaming on my HD as I watch sports and movies on my CRT and vice versa) Definitely recommend to anyone still holding on to a blast from the past. Now a little quirk: **Plug in the power source BEFORE you plug in the HDMI cable, otherwise you won't get a signal** Also: If you unplug the power source, the device is still drawing power from the HDMI cable while it…

Pros
  • Easy to Use
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide
