    I’m very happy that I can still use my older model Yamaha receiver with my new Sony TV. Easy to hook up and use. It’s working perfectly…

    What I needed to see old VHS tapes!

    The Insignia RCA to HDMI converter is a great thing to have if you need to connect your older RCA connected electronics to a newer TV/monitor which doesn't have RCA ports, but does have HDMI. Personally, I have been trying to figure out how to connect my older Wii console/game and my Go Video (with VHS) to my new OLED TV. I know other people, as well as myself, have old VHS tapes with no way to watch them and older gaming consoles with no way to play them. This totally solved my problems! Do you gave an older DVD player that doesn't have HDMI output? It probably has RCA jacks, so this converter will solve that issue for you. Know that you can only convert one way - only RCA to HDMI, NOT the other way around. They sell converters that go the other way as well. Make sure you buy the one you need. So easy to get started and use this converter. In the box you get the RCA (input) to HDMI (output) converter, a 6 foot USB-A to USB-C cable and a power adapter. They do not supply either the HDMI cable or RCA. Plug your HDMI cable into the output slot with the other end plugged into your TV, monitor, etc. Then, plug the RCA end into the input side making sure to match the red, yellow and white plugs with their corresponding holes, with the other end plugged into your older electronics: game console, VCR etc. Then, get your power either using the enclosed usb cable to a power source such as your laptop or the provided power plug. The other end of the cable is placed into the USB-C port on the converter. That’s it - you’re ready to go. It works! I found there to be some video & sound degradation. I can’t know whether that is due to the converter or the VHS tape being very old, or just showing the incredible advances in recording since the video was made. All I know is that the quality was ok for me. Without this converter, I wouldn’t be able to see the videos of my kids growing up, my mom & dad and other family & friends throughout my early life. The Insignia RCA to HDMI converter works well. It does exactly what you expect and I would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for a way to connect their older electronics (RCA) to newer displays (HDMI). An aside, the outer packaging comes from "sustainably sourced paper" which is just a bonus for me.

    Connects your “old” tech to new display tech

    If you’re an elder millennial like me, or recently have found yourself interested in “old” technology the. Having one of these boxes is a necessity. Most modern televisions and monitors do not support the old RCA connection from technology of the past. You might be lucky and find a tv that still has it. But anywho, this device makes connecting your old camcorders, cameras, VHS players, game consoles, dvd players, to a modern display simple. It is small, unobtrusive and comes with its own USB power brick to power the signal converter. I used mine to connect an old miniDV Sony handicam to my modern QLED television for viewing old family home movies I recorded. I also use it to connect my old PlayStation 1 and Nintendo “NES” to play my old games from time to time. The connection is stable, and allows you to output in 720p or 1080p with the flick of a switch. I don’t notice any lag or input lag while using this box as a signal converter. The video and audio output is crisp, and looks fantastic on my television. I can whole heartedly recommend this to anyone needing to convert an RCA device to HdMI.

    Really nice RCA video and stereo audio adapter to HDMI. Its well built and the little box feels sturdy and of quality. They include a Type C to A USB cable and an AC adapter for power. Using it is super easy. Just plug your analog device via RCA and then the HDMI cable to your newer digital device (HDMI cable not included). There is a switch on the front to flip it from 720p to 1080p resolution mode. This little device allowed me to be able to use some old video game consoles from my youth I had in storage. Also some Hi8 video tapes I had from my youth too. Quality is good, however it also depends on how good is the source. The video game consoles worked great and my old camcorder recorder footage worked good to, although they had the typical old tape look (blame the source, not this little guy). Bare in mind, this is only one way, RCA to HDMI, and it works great and its super easy to use. If you have lots of old analog devices and your new TV/screen doesn't have analog inputs anymore, with this little guy you will be able to watch them again on your new devices, works great!

    Fun way to relive the blasts from the past

    Raised in the 80s, I have a lot of electronics laying around that aren’t compatible with my OLED TV with only HDMI inputs. This Insignia works perfect for playing my old Nintendo, karaoke or anything that only has RCA outputs. Comes with everything besides the RCA and HDMI cables. It comes with a USB outlet plug because it requires power to work. Worked straight out of the box. There is a switch from 720p to 1080 on the front just in case you’re having issues with the image. It was total nostalgia when the Nintendo fired up for the first time in decades. Showing my kids what I grew up with was a blast from the past. The converter is pretty small and can easily hide behind the TV. Just make sure you have another outlet space to power the converter. I do wish the USB power is on the same side as the RCA inputs. The converter would be convenient for me to pack with me to travel with. I can see myself using this converter in my camper or hotel. Dust off your old gaming consoles, VCR, DVD player, Karaoke machine!

    RCA to HDMI - yes!

    The Insignia RCA to HDMI converter is exactly what it says it is. It comes with the power adapter and cord, but you will need to supply the HDMI cable and the RCA cable. Simple and easy to use. I have an old camcorder that my kid is always wanting to watch the old videos from and it’s a tiny little screen on that thing. Being able to easily plug it into my TV with this adapter is awesome! RCA plugs into my old camcorder, HDMI plugs into my TV, give it some power and we’re rolling! It’s great fun to reminisce – the picture quality isn’t superb, but we’re talking really old technology on a 4K screen now, we’ve just become accustomed to clarity and greatness. This should work for a lot of older tech, VCR’s, game systems, or older DVD player. This does go only one way, you can’t go HDMI to RCA, but I can’t imagine why anyone would want to do that. Overall this is a great adapter to have, I’m glad it’s such a simple tool to use and if you’re looking to be able to watch old stuff on your new tech this is the way to do it!

    Like many of us, we have a lifetime of memories on VHS tape from the good old days. It was nice to get this and begin to digitize my VHS tapes before they completely deteriorate. Don't expect 4KUHD video quality but I run it in the 1080p mode and it produces acceptable quality video. It's an interface device not a video processor so that's not its job. The RCA connection is a no brainer as is the HDMI end that goes to your digital TV. Very good price and it does the job as expected.

    I was skeptical that this would work. My mom is the only person I know who still owns a functioning VCR! When I purchased a new television for her, she lost her RCA ports on the TV. This device did the trick. Simple connection … SUCCESS! (The price could be a little lower.)

    This works great. The item connects the dvd player to the tv and shows the movies on the tv. It does need to be plugged in an outlet as well.
