Do you mean HDMI? HDE connections are for gamming devices. This is very different from TV or VIDEO devices.

It's not that kind of adapter, you should try something like this: SYBA Universal VGA to HDMI Converter with Audio Support, Adapter for PC, Laptop, DVD, Desktop, SY-ADA31025

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.

The VGA does not carry audio so you need plug the audio cable into the port, I haven't seen any TVs that carry one but not the other take a closer look see if you can find it, sometimes it's placed where it's really hard to see but I should be very close to the VGA. I'd be courious to find out if you found it. Good luck

I got this to hook to my computer to mirror the screen on my TV that does not have a VGA port and it does not work I tried it both ways however I never tried it with a camera it might work if it is straight to monitor it would not have sound but if you plug only into the yellow rca it might work sorry but the only way to find out is get it and try it for the price so if it does not work then your not out of lot of money to really worry I cut it up and used the pieces in some of my robotics projects so it was not a total loss for me I hope this helped you if you have any other questions on other things I bought hit me up and I'll help if I can I got this to hook to my computer to mirror the screen on my TV that does not have a VGA port and it does not work I tried it both ways however I never tried it with a camera it might work if it is straight to monitor it would not have sound but if you plug only into the yellow rca it might work sorry but the only way to find out is get it and try it for the price so if it does not work then your not out of lot of money to really worry I cut it up and used the pieces in some of my robotics projects so it was not a total loss for me I hope this helped you if you have any other questions on... » Read More I got this to hook to my computer to mirror the screen on my TV that does not have a VGA port and it does not work I tried it both ways however I never tried it with a camera it might work if it is straight to monitor it would not have sound but if you plug only into the yellow rca it might work sorry but the only way to find out is get it and try it for the price so if it does not work then your not out of lot of money to really worry I cut it up and used the pieces in some of my robotics projects so it was not a total loss for me I hope this helped you if you have any other questions on other things I bought hit me up and I'll help if I can « Show Less

Have to get a conversion box I believe. This part didn't work how I had hoped. Think I bought a vga to rca converter . If not does just a vga to vga work

No, you need a converter that will cost about 30$ or so. BTW be sure its RCA or S-video TO VGA and not the other way around. Those do work.

it might not be compatible this way it may be only backwards compatible HDMI from the laptop to VGA the TV. I only have experience trying to dumb down component for TV. I don't know if it speeds up VGA to HDMI. Sorry I can't help.

At our school we found this product to be completely ineffectual in all possible configurations. We tried hdmi out -&gt; VGA in = nothing. We reversed that. Nothing. The same results with the yellow video line. Check the small print from the seller and you'll find they warn it only works if the devices being connected have built in conversion. Otherwise, nothing. You may need a converter, not just a cable. Rad up on your laptop's hdmi output... Good luck!

Your TV MUST have a VGA imput Plug IN and also an INPUT jack for Audio... 3.5 standard. If it doesn't have either of these then you can not connect your laptop to your TV that way. Maybe you just need a HDMI cable.

Probably not. You have to investigate if the tv port you are trying to connect to is in fact rca. What this device does is that it converts a 3.5 mm (microphone) port into rca, because the tv does not have a built in rca port. And honestly you might not even need this, when I was going over the documentation bag I noticed that the tv came in with this connector, so search for it in this bag. So long story short, make sure that you are trying to connect a male rca into a femal rca

I understand the first part of what you said. I'll look for a TV with a VGA port. Is there a special cord or connector for that? The second part sounds like a lot of work just to watch a movie. I truly thank you for your help

Your T.V. probably doesn't blend the VGA with your audio input. What you need is a 3.5 audio jack to a female RCA jack. This should 100% fix your problem.

If you found something that did work, could you please tell me what it was? I'm looking for the same thing. I want to connect a Wii (RCA) to my monitor (VGA) since I don't have a TV. I already have the audio thing worked out, but I need a configuration that works for video. Thank you!!

I doubt it. Unless your laptop has a VGA input (most only have an output) it won't work. Usually the VGA port on a laptop is to project the screen onto a projector or to connect to a larger screen and does not accept a signal from, say, a VCR.

I am not quite sure of the question but I will try to help.... The VGA port is the standard port that a monitor would use to connect to. You would not use this to connect a VGA output from a laptop to HDMI. This is the revers of that. This takes HDMI input to VGA output.

Yes, but it doesn't have sound and you'll need an adapter to go from VGA to A/V or something similar (PC Computer VGA to TV S-Video 3 RCA AV Adapter Cable - 336047)http://www.rakuten.com/prod/pc-computer-vga-to-tv-s-video-3-rca-av-adapter-cable/219946686.html?listingId=132699671
