5.0 out of 5 stars
Small unit which does the job,
By
This review is from: ClimaxDigital (VGA TO AV) (VGA TO Video/SVIDEO) (PC/Notebook To TV) Converter
The first surprise with this item was the size of the unit itself. The box it comes in is quite large, but once you remove all the included leads you find the main unit isn't much bigger than a couple of packs of playing cards.The box contains leads for every possible combination of input and output that the unit can handle which is very good. It's also powered from a USB port via the supplied cable removing the need for a heavy power adapter. This means the unit is very portable and with its leads will fit into the pocket of a laptop case without any problem. The supplied manual is very brief, but functional. In use it the Converter was pretty much plug and play for me outputting my Samsung NC10 netbook to a Samsung 32" widescreen CRT TV. Connect the supplied VGA cable to the VGA out on your computer and to the VGA in on the Converter. Then choose the appropriate output for your TV and connect the cable. Finally, connect the USB power lead to a free port on the computer. After that just set your PC to output via VGA (usually one of the function keys on a laptop) and set the TV to the appropriate AV channel and there's your picture. After a few tweaks of the settings on my netbook's graphics card I had a very acceptable picture on the TV. It was a bit blurry to be able to use for tasks like word processing, web surfing, etc, but for watching services like YouTube, BBC iPlayer, etc it was perfectly good - and that was the task I wanted this for. The unit has some settings of its own if you want to play around with hue, brightness, sizing, etc. I tested with both AV out and S-Video and the picture was good. No more iPlayer on a 10" screen for me! For watching online streaming video this is a recommended product.

VGA to AV,

Requires no setting up, works immediately. Definition not as good as original VGA signal, but this is probably inevitable in translating from one system to another. A "no fuss" product that does the job.

Lets you view your video files on your TV!,

This review is from: ClimaxDigital (VGA TO AV) (VGA TO Video/SVIDEO) (PC/Notebook To TV) Converter
Great gadget which enables you to use your ordinary TV as a second screen for your PC/Laptop.This means that you can view any video file which will play on your PC on your TV, making it easier to view. Also you can connect to your DVD/video recorder and record the video file to a more convenient media (Recordable DVD or Video tape). I should imagine it would be handy for games players as well, but I haven't tried it yet. Set up is very easy - no software installation is required. The box contains all the leads you are likely to need in order to connect to your PC and TV. All in all, a great piece of kit!
