4K/60Hz HDMI to Component Converter with Scaler Function, HDMI to YPbPr Converter Support 480i/576i Component Out for HD Devices to Display on CRT TV with YPbPr

Wanted a YPbPr+L/R converter to connect my Sony UPB-X800M2 DVD/Blu-Ray HDMI output to my old Sony FD Trinitron KV-27FS12 CRT color TV. To do that, I needed a converter that could downscale to 480i. I saw a YouTube demo of the EASYCEL and wasn't too impressed, but looked like it might work. I plugged everything in, turned on my TV and DVD, and started clicking the resolution button, until after about 5 or 6 clicks, a home screen finally appeared on my TV. At that point I put in a disk and hoped for the best. It was AMAZING!!! Incredibly crystal clear image and audio! The EASYCEL is well-made, easy to use, high quality, at a great price. Comes with power supply but needed to purchase the audio/video cables separately. If you have a similar need to connect and convert your high tech video player to a low tech TV, you might try the EASYCEL. I couldn't be more satisfied with the results, performance, and quality, and highly recommend this product!

I purchased this for use with an old Sony LCD projection TV. This TV has an old style DVI input I used with a DVI to HDMI cable, but that input stopped working. However the old TV has plenty of component inputs. This HDMI converter has worked great with both an older Panasonic blu-ray player, a Firestick, and a more contemporary Sony UBP-X800 blu-ray player. The image scales very nicely and the picture looks great. I have the converter plugged into a 'smart' power strip with the TV as the master device, turning off TV turns off the converter as well (the converter has no switch as noted in other comments). The power brick cord length is a little shorter that it should be, but with the power strip I'm able to get everything comfortably set up.

I purchased this converter after discovering that Verizon's upgraded Fios set top box was not going to work with our existing TV setup. The new Fios box only has an HDMI output cable but our existing setup uses component video and RCA cables for surround sound and a whole house music system. The converter is self-explanatory in terms of setup. The HDMI comes in and the component and RCA cables go out to whatever equipment is hooked up using these cables. There is also a short power cord to plug in. I was thrilled to find out that the converter works, which allows us to migrate to the latest Fios box (Verizon tech suggested this solution though in general the company has been a nightmare to work with on this upgrade). Make sure you buy the right product: this converts from HDMI to component, not vice versa. Given that this converter allows us to use Fios STB with our existing AV setup , I think the price is reasonable. We'll see how long it lasts.

I bought this because it advertised 480p and I wanted a cable to connect a PC to a Trinitron TV. I am unable to get my GPU to output 480p (640x480), the lowest is 600p (800x600). However, the converter reads the input signal as 1080p (1920x1080), no matter what. And outputs only 16:9 resolutions. So, 480p is 720x480. But… my TV reads this signal as a 4:3 signal and compresses the image horizontally. Fortunately, I was able to correct this in my GPU drivers (AMD) by enabling GPU scaling and setting it to not maintain aspect ration. I’m not positive, but I think this means my GPU outputs a stretched 800x600 output over a1080p signal. It ends up looking pretty good on the TV. The best resolution is 800x600. I thought maybe higher resolutions might benefit from downsampling, but 1024p and up has a lot of artifacts. But, you will need to manipulate the signal to get 4:3 to display properly. There is one final criticism: the unit has poor electrical shielding from its own power supply. It has a light snow that other inputs do not carry. Even worse, this interference is great enough that it affects other signals. If I am using the adjacent component input, it picks up the electric noise from this converter. This means I have to unplug it when using other connections. For the price, I can live with a slightly dirty signal. However, it would be nice to have a power switch, so it would be more convenient to disable it. Otherwise it works well for $30-ish. I haven’t tested any delay. I don’t specifically intend to use this connection for gaming, mostly watching older 4x3 content. But, I will test it in a couple days. My TV is a HighScan variant, which means it does super sampling which can add14-31ms of latency. There is a lot of conflicting information about when this is enabled in my TV. From my own testing, it does not apply HighScan to 480p signals over component and there is practically no latency. All my 6th generation consoles are snappy and responsive, noticeably when compared to newer LCD and OLED TVs; button presses are instantaneous. If there is any delay over this connection, it won’t be from the TV. I will update when I try. For what you pay, you can’t be disappointed, but you need to be aware of its draw-backs before you decide to use this particular unit.

Garbage, only outputs 16:9 even when the input is 4:3, output signal randomly cuts out at times, tons of latency, screen tearing, and flickering. Totally worthless.

I have an old Sony 38' Trinitron with a 4:3 aspect ratio. Since I cut my ties with cable, I went with an Amazon Firestick. Of course there is no HDMI input on the TV, only DVI, Component, and Composite, so I needed a converter to convert the Firestick HDMI output to Component. I chose this one because it seemed to have the best reviews out of all of them ... none of them are really good. The first one lasted a year, the second one I had to return because the on-screen-display wouldn't turn off after a few seconds, and this one seems to be working so far, although it's only a few days old. It works fine ... we'll see for how long. I can get a 4:3 aspect ratio by toggling the resolution button, a good picture and it was easy to setup. The only problem, which is unavoidable, is that all of these converters are made in China and you get the unreliability that you've come to expect. Isn't anything made in America anymore??? I've given it a 5 star review, but that may change depending on how long this one lasts.

Good product..l not as bright as regular HDTV and sometimes has a little ghosting. Adequate for our requirements.

Tenía duda que pudiera escalar a señal 480i (interlazado) para TV CRT. Estoy utilizando un Google ChromeCast Full HD y me entrega una señal de salida de 1440x480i en un CRT Sony Trinitron 29", y es excepcional la calidad eb brillo, contraste y principalmente en color. Hice algunos ajustes en las configuraciones de servicio de mi televisor, y he logrado casi un aspect ratio 4:3 nativo.

It does not output all resolution described in the ads. The only ones that I can see from my testing are: 480i(60hz), 480p(60hz), 576i(50hz), 576p(50hz), 720p(60Hz), 1080p(60Hz). It does not output 720p at 50Hz and 1080i at 50Hz.

Funcionó perfecto para NES mini que era el objetivo, aunque también se probó con una ps3 con sus juegos de ps2, eso sí , el monitor o crt que usen debe aceptar 480i que es lo menos que tiene de salida este dispositivo
