Can it be used to connect a laptop to a DVD player or VCR to watch movies? From Laptop HDMI output to RCA A/V input? Thanks

The laptop HDMI is usually a "mini" HDMI connector. Therefore you may require an HDMI "mini" to standard HDMI adaptor that will accept the enKo composite adaptor. As long as your DVD player, or VCR accepts the RCA A/V inputs you should not have a problem.

I have a dvd vcr player combo and it only had the standard rca connections. I hooked it up and it worked great. Even with a hdmi coupler between hdmi cables. I switched between the 720 and 1080 settings but couldn't tell a big difference but they both worked. It's definitely worth a shot.

Possibly, but it is designed to be used with a cctv dvr and not a vcr. To hook up to a computer you would need a cctv add on card. They usually cost more than a stand alone cctv dvr.

Jimmy, looks like it can output to your tv. The flowing from Colby web site"A/V output connections (DVD mode only)"Hope this helps

Me too. I'd like to know if it is possible to connect RCA from say a VCR to view tapes on the PC LCD monitor I have.

Hi Jim, Yes that is what I use mine for, I have hundreds of hours of VHS tapes that I shot of my family. I am converting them and burning them onto DVD's. My VCR has two composite outputs, I connect one to my capture card and the other to the convertor and the hdmi output to my big screen monitor. Works great and the quality surprised me.

No, it is normally used to connect to the s-video and headphone jack output of a laptop to the composite video audio input on a TV or VCR. It might be usable to connect your camcorder to a TV if your camcorder has s-video and and a matching audio out jacks.

Doubt that this will work for you. I assume you are trying to play your VCR and record on the DVD of your laptop? The VGA port on your laptop is an Output, so you cannot feed from the VCR into your VGA port of your laptop.

I used it to hook a bunch of devices to my tv but if a hdmi cable to your laptop it would work I would think.What im using it for ,its awsome

It can be connected directly to dvd player, IF it has an input. Most DVD players don't have input, so the answer is no.

It is designed to convert the RCA to VGA only. It did not work for me at all, but it is supposed to only go one way (RCA -> VGA). I would look for an active adapter for your needs.

No! You will have to use another method such as via your vga (video) port or other a/v port if your laptop has one. You may also be able to use USB to HDMI method but I cannot guarantee that it will work with your laptop.

I don't see why not. I frequently used the RCA plugs to monitor video output from a VCR.

I used this to be able to use HDMI input for my HD TV. It converts the rca output to HDMI perfect and voice and picture match perfect. It has been great since I still have a lot of VCR tapes. Hope this answers your question.

This adapter allows me to display my laptop contents on my tv. I can have other display active too. Unclear what you are trying to do with RCA cord.

Yes, that's what it does -- RCA (or s-video) to VGA. It works, but the quality is very poor.
