Product Description
Works with virtually any computer and any television! If you need an HD picture please see our VGA to HDMI converter.
Connecting your TV to your PC is easy with this converter. In other words you can plug one end of this adapter into your computer and the other end into your television (works with your TV's composite port, yellow RCA, or S-Video port).
How This Adapter Works
Setting up this adapter takes less than a minute with zero software or driver installations. Simply connect your computer's VGA port to the adapter using the included VGA cable, and connect the yellow RCA composite port on the adapter to your TV with the included RCA cable (this converter also comes with an S-Video cable if you prefer that port). The converter sits near your PC and gets its power from your PC's USB port through an included USB-to-5V-power-tip cable. This converter takes advantage of the power current coming from your PC so as not to require an additional power outlet. You can use your PC speakers, or you can get a 3.5mm to RCA audio cable to run sound to your TV.
You might be wondering why you need an active converter such as this box as opposed to a simple passive VGA to composite cable. The answer is that VGA and composite video are two completely different formats requiring the use of an active conversion. This means that the picture that comes out of the converter is going to be slightly different than the picture that came in. See this detailed article that includes screenshots and comparisons for this converter.

Sewell direct - Sewell PC to TV Converter (VGA to RCA) Reviews
| 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Sewell direct - Sewell PC to TV Converter (VGA to RCA) (Electronics) I use this to display karaoke words on HD screens (from a laptop to the TV). This product is very easy to use and requires no significant tech savvy, as long as you know the difference between an RCA (most TVs have one) and a VGA (computer monitor) plug. In my opinion, this is the best one you can buy because it's cheap, and for karaoke it cuts down on overhead. Also, works great for turning any TV into a second monitor for either a desktop or laptop. Everything you need is included (i.e. VGA cable, RCA cable, USB power cable, S-Video cable, and the converter itself). NOT OPTIMAL FOR RUNNING MOVIES FROM PC OR LAPTOP TO YOUR HDTV!! For that use a VGA to HDMI converter!! 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Sewell direct - Sewell PC to TV Converter (VGA to RCA) (Electronics) I needed a device that would allow our church to occasionally record the output of a computer rather than the camera feed that is normally recorded. The computer output is set to 1024 x 768 to match the projectors, so I needed a device that could at least handle that resolution. I also didn't want to spend too much money because this would only be needed occasionally and we don't require studio quality recordings. This device was easy to hook up and the output is very acceptable for an item at this price point. The unit has menu buttons that allow you to adjust the output of the device if needed and that works quite well.Overall, I'm very happy with the way this item works, especially considering the price I paid. If you are considering this item, just remember to make sure the specifications indicate that it is capable of doing what you need it to do. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful By Gopack (NC State University) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Sewell direct - Sewell PC to TV Converter (VGA to RCA) (Electronics) I am very happy with this product. Picture quality is better than expected with the limited use I have put it through. I was able to set up the converter without reading the manual (I am, however, a bit of a techie). I don't think anyone should have too much of an issue setting up this device.The main reason I bought this converter over some of the others is because the product seemed more authentic from a more reputable company. Sewell offers a 1 year warranty on the product which is more than some of the fake looking ones from other companies. This is certainly not going to be HD quality picture but if you only have a old TV and want to watch Hulu on it, this is great. PS: Text is a bit blurry so this will not be ideal for web browsing or general computer usage. |
