Connected my 20 year old Bose 3-2-1 system S-cable to the HDMI converter to my HDMI TV. Worked as advertised however, I highly recommend you purchase your own S-cable, HDMI cable and a AC/DC 5VDC (5mm x 2.1mm plug) in 4-6 ft. long or longer and don't depend on the cables that come with it, that and the fact the AC power cord is TOO SHORT! The other thing I found odd is that the cables plug in at opposite ends of the device. Bit of a hassle but I can live with it. Other than those gripes it works.

I've been buying these $7 converters for RCA to HDMI. I have them all over the place and they work with minimal issues. They don't come with a switch for the aspect ratio, but they do usually come with a switch for 720/1080p. I had to buy an S-VIDEO converter recently and found the cheapest was around $15. It had the ratio switch and a switch from 480 to 720p, but the image wasn't the sharpest and it didn't work with my Commodore 64 (even though I had the 300 ohm resistor... for those in the know). I thought I was having trouble with the machine until I plugged it into a TV and found it worked just fine. I set out to find a new converter and found this one.I'm very happy with this box. Like another reviewer said, it's about as close as you're going to get to a RetroTink without shelling out the big bucks. The image is great, the ratio, quality, and source switching work perfectly and there is an on-screen display showing you what you just set it to. After going through those cheap converters I was also really pleased to find a custom power adapter and not a USB plug (they don't usually give you an adapter and you have to make sure the one you grab can support the power requirements of the converter - a hassle).If you aren't worried about S-Video, you aren't using your converter on a large TV, and you don't need to change the aspect ratio, I would say one of those cheap-o converters will do the trick for you. If you don't need S-Video, are on a small screen, but need ratio switching, there are other boxes slightly higher in cost than those that will work. If you need S-Video, this is hands-down better than any of those that are using USB power (I'm not saying the fact that they are using USB power has anything to do with the quality, but I've seen the options on Amazon and this is the easiest way to draw a line in the sand). You could probably get away with one of the cheaper options if, again, you're on a smaller screen and don't need ratio switching.Now, if you want to see your vintage device on a large screen, no matter what, this is one of the best of the sub-$40 options on the market and there is a marked difference in quality over the sub-$25 options. If you have a vintage computer, I'd say just skip the testing and get this one from the start. I wish I had.

Video works. But no sound. Tried with a known good N64 and Wii.

I ordered this specifically for one reason: I had purchased a different cheap capture device which worked, but, inexplicably, forced any connected sources to render in "stretched" mode, which made it unusable for my purposes. THIS device, however, is one of very few at this price range that actually has an "Aspect ratio" button to allow you to select this (along with a 720/1080 switch). I'm using this with not just my retro game consoles, but also a Pioneer Laserdisc player, and everything I've plugged into it looks amazing. The one thing I cannot vouch for is VHS performance, as I don't currently have one in my setup. Someday I'll probably end up with a RetroTink, but for now, this meets my needs quite well, and at an extremely reasonable price.

I'm going to make this shorter than I should. Bought several AV/S-video to HDMI converters over the years for 1/2 the price or less and have always been disappointed. Basically, all I ever wanted was a device that kept my Laserdisc player vs newer TV's happy. This is it! It doesn't distort or add additional noise, maintains the proper aspect, and retains setting upon power loss (I cut power when not needed as to not put extra wear on my aging LD player). This would probably work for other legacy AV devices, but I would not recommend for Retro game consoles if you are a serious gamer as it most certainly introduces input lag (there are devices on the market that while being even more expensive are far more suited). But straight up video players where lag is of no concern definitely buy this.

I ordered this HDMI converter to connect an old SVHS VCR to my new AV receiver that only has HDMI for video inputs. I just hooked it up, and the S-video quality is right on point. Do dumb out of frame NTSC signals leaking into the picture. Upscaleing is also pretty decent. It's a good quality product.

First impressions are the unit works great and does what it should. I pushed the HDMI signal to an HD monitor and also coupled with an “Elgato cam link 4K” got my Mac to easily see the signal in QuickTime so I could capture my VHS memories. BEWARE as noted in another review, I nearly returned the unit believing it faulty after a lot of troubleshooting only to discover the culprit was the brand new HDMI cable provided along in this package. Mine definitely didn’t work, but a simple swap to my own cable fixed it. Great design, easy to use, reasonably priced. I would NOT trust the cables that come with it, hence my less than perfect rating.
