How do I reset the resolution of the Wii to be compatible with the HDMI converter? My resolution is all jacked up.

the Wii resolution is 480P and you cant change the resolution of the Wii only the tv aspect ratio. On the actual converter there is a little switch which you can change the resolution from 720p & 1080p. I basically plugged this converter in made sure the resolution setting was at 1080p, connected the hdmi cable to it and then to tv and that was it. It worked perfectly. Its may be possible that you recieved a faulty unit.

I assume you want to set it to the lower resolution and let the converter do the work....try this http://tewha.net/2011/08/how-to-reset-wii-to-lower-resolution/

Good lord I really don't know! i recommend that you update your firmware if that doesn't work check out or change the input and also check on settings the native resolution please let me know as soon as posible if i solve your problem, we can work this out ;)

I assume you would need such a part that is compatible with the Wii, although I do not know of such a part. Also you could achieve the same effect by purchasing an extender and placing it close to the Wii.

In short, No. These cables are a simple pass-through/straight type cable, not a signal conversion. HDMI = digital; component/composite = analog. So the signal being passed through is digital.If your tv has the ability to convert the digital signal to analog via component/composite ports, then this cable will work. Again the cable cant do any converting. Hope this better answers your question. (Update: I tried it on my nephews Wii U (hdmi out from Wii u to component tv) and when changing the wii display setup to hdmi, selected 720 (what his tv supported) or auto, Wii U said not supported and reverted back to his non-hdmi settings) In short, No. These cables are a simple pass-through/straight type cable, not a signal conversion.

I had the same question. Glad to hear that there is no video lag. On the same note, I have a similar question: I would like to connect my Nintendo Wii through this receiver as well. Will this model take analog component and pipe it out over HDMI? The setup I currently have does not have component-in, so I will be using this as a hub for the time being. I realize there may be some input-lag due to conversion, I just want to confirm that this device would accept analog component input and then be able to push it out over HDMI. Any info would be appreciated!

When I tried using the composite upconversion for the Wii, the picture looked terrible! It was very grainy and there were bars on all 4 sides. I have since bought a componet cable for the Wii and the picture quality is much better but there are still bars around the picture. When the Wii is connected directly to my 55" Sony LCD, it looks perfect. I called Sony support and they thought the receiver was defective so I exchanged it for a new DH820, and had the same results.

Do you have HD cables for those systems? Because if you don't then it's going to look just about the same. No TV will magically turn a garbage picture with old hookups into High-Definition. I did a quick search and I'm not even sure if HD cables are available for SNES. Good luck though.

This will work for a Wii, however, it does not upvert the image. It only makes the output from the Wii the same as the input of the TV; the resolution is still the same. I had to try a few different settings to get the best image possible.

i have a similar cable matters device. the switch changeover is instant. however, my tv has a delay in recognizing the change in input resolution. i run wii, uverse and a blueray with my switch. all 3 inputs are different res (480p, 1080i, 1080p).

This unit will take a composite output and convert to HDMI. If your WII is composite, (red, white, and yellow outputs) then this will work if you want to deliver to the TV via HDMI

Adjust your TVs zoom settings. If your TV lacks those, adjust the Wii's over scan settings. If THAT doesn't work, get a better TV.

I'm not sure I understand your question. As a user all you have to do is attach a component cable between this device and the device you want to be HDMI, attach a sound cable between this device and the device you want to be HDMI, attach an HDMI cable between this device and your TV, attach the transformer for this device to this device and an outlet. If you're asking what method they use for up conversion, I don't think this device does any up conversion. Also, as I stated in my review, this device will not let you watch any disc that has copyright protection, even though you're a licensed user. It made the device useless to me, so I no longer use it.

George, if you have an HD TV, just connect your Wii directly. This device is for pre-HD televisions without HDMI inputs or multiple RCA inputs.

HDMI resolution is fixed as 1920x1080 only per its standard. if you use other resolutions; use different interface.

Are you going through the component outputs? The player only upconverts through the HDMI cable if I understand it correctly. Has something to do with the copyright protection. Switch to HDMI if you can. Goodluck!

I am using the HDMI and am getting that resolution. I am sure you can though.
