Q: QuestionI hooked this up to run my cd music through the speakers of my 5.2 surround sound system; it works & sounds great. However, the music occasionally cuts out randomly for a few seconds. Has this happened to anyone else? Wondering if I got a bum converter.

Q: QuestionCan I record from TV TO CASSETTE RECORDER WITH THIS DEVICE?…

Asked 1 month ago by Ray.

• A:Answer Hi Ray, Thank you for your question. The Insignia RCA to HDMI Converter (Model NS‑HZ330) is a one‑way converter that takes an analog RCA signal and converts it to HDMI for display on a modern TV. It does not send HDMI audio/video back out through RCA, so it cannot be used to record from a TV to a cassette recorder. Rafay | Insignia Products

Q: QuestionWill this convertor change the RCA captions into something that the HDMI TV can display?

Asked 8 months ago by ieatsequins.

• A:Answer Hi there! Yes, the Insignia™ RCA to HDMI Converter is designed to convert analog RCA signals from older devices such as DVD players, VCRs, or gaming consoles into a digital HDMI signal for display on modern televisions. It specifically converts composite RCA video and audio (red, white, yellow) into HDMI output, supporting both HD and Full HD resolutions, making it ideal for connecting legacy devices to newer TVs that only have HDMI inputs. — Shiela | Insignia Support

Q: QuestionDoes this convertor work for sound bars for TV

Asked 8 months ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer The Insignia™ RCA to HDMI Converter is not suitable for connecting a TV to a soundbar. It is designed to convert analog RCA video and audio signals into HDMI for display on modern TVs, not for audio output to sound systems. Soundbars typically require HDMI ARC, optical, Bluetooth, or RCA audio outputs from the TV. Using this converter will not transmit audio from your TV to a soundbar. Patricia | Insignia Support

Q: QuestionI have used this to connect a VCR to a Smart TV and there is no video and intermittent audio. Any suggestions?

Asked 9 months ago by Torque.

• A:Answer Make sure the cables from the vcr to this adapter are going to the right inputs. Also set the resolution to 1080P if your tv is full resolution or 720P if it isn't. If that's all OK, you may want to verify that the vcr tape you're looking at is not the problem. No other suggestions.

Q: QuestionWill it connect my RCA home theatre 5.1 to my PC desktop

Asked 10 months ago by sundance.

• A:Answer Thank you for your question. Our Insignia™ RCA to HDMI Converter is designed to take RCA (red, yellow, white) inputs and convert them to an HDMI output. If your RCA home theater system has RCA outputs for audio, and your PC desktop has an HDMI input, then this converter could potentially work to connect the audio from your home theater to your PC's HDMI port. However, HDMI on a PC is typically an output for video and audio to a display, not an input. For your PC to receive audio from your RCA home theater system, you would likely need an audio interface or sound card with RCA inputs. Therefore, this converter is probably not the right solution for your specific setup. It's designed to send audio and video to an HDMI display, not to receive audio from an RCA device into a PC's HDMI port. You would likely need a different type of device to get the audio from your RCA home theater system into your PC. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask! - Mae | Insignia Support
