I have an older (circa 2002) analog TV which has a built in digital converter with RCA connections. Can I use this cable to connect my laptop, that has an HDMI connector to this digital/RCA connector TV?

if your older TV has the red green and blue outputs it should work. the red yellow and white will not work

Yes. It takes VGA input (which most older laptops have) and HDMI input (which most newer laptops have). If you use VGA cable to connect, then you also need to use headphone type audio cable to connect from laptop headphone (or separate audio out jack) to the TV audio in jack.

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

The previous answer is basically correct. The 3 RCA cable connections are analog and the HDMI is digital so, this cable (or any other) will simply adapt from one type of connector to another but will not convert from one signal type to another. For that, you will need to purchase a converter. I would also check your ATT converter box to see if it does in fact have an analog output. I don't know about ATT but Cox, DirecTV and most other providers boxes provide several output so people with older TV's don't have to go buy a new TV. Hope this helps.

It really doesn't exist. It is not possible for an analog signal (RCA) to be converted to a digital signal (USB) inside a cable. You would either need a CONVERTER, a little box that would convert the signal, or you would need a special video card for the computer. I tried this cable in both configurations: RCA video into computer, and video out of computer to RCA TV, and BOTH did not work. Just look for a converter or something with good reviews and was meant to do the job. DON'T GET THIS! Hope this helps!

No, According to what I found out the HDMI output from the laptop is digital and VGA is analog. Need a converter.

only if your laptop has a very specific vga card, you would actually need a vga to hdmi that has a in line convertor, some people have bought this wire not knowing that it won't work

That cable does not work because RCA is analog and HDMI is high def. One needs a converter to get what you need done.

It depends on how you're using it. If you're using it for a VCR you would need to plug the RCA jacks into your VCR and the USB to your TV. It won't work the other way around though. The USB on this cable is output only... I tried using it to hook up my laptop to the TV. It was a no-go. But for your VCR it should do just fine.

I would venture to guess "No" unless you have an HDMI output on that older model RCA TV, which is possible as HDMI has been around a while mostly for computer monitor higher resolution connections. Can you take a pic of the back and post it somewhere and put the link in here (I doubt you can attach photo's here directly). A quick glance at the back in/out panel will tell me if this is possible or not.

I am not sure what an EDTV is? You can use this device to connect a PC to a TV. Typically, if the TV has a VGA input it should have a HDMI input. I wouldn't recommend converter to analog unless you have to.

Be sure your old computer has an HDMI output (if so it is likely the graphics card will provide a signal suitable for HDTV). Obviously, the TV needs to have a VGA-type input. This unit does not allow a VGA output from a computer to do an HDMI input into a TV. (Which is what I suspect you are looking for).

Unfortunately, this cable will not connect your laptop / computer to a TV therefore it will not work, the cables are also designed for component (red, green and blue).

No. You need a USB to HDMI cable. But if your laptop has a display port (usually bigger than your USB port) then you can use this

As long as it has an HDMI port available, I see no reason why it shouldn't. Use a high quality "high speed" HDMI cable and you should be fine. It also has composite (RCA) connectors for hooking up to older TVs as well. But I suspect you'll only be using it or high def video, so you'll just be hooking up via HDMI. As far as I know, there shouldn't be any issues. It's just another HDMI video source.

You can. It converts digital signal into analog. It just happens to have a vga connection. Anything that a vga cable can do, such as adapt into a component, this device will allow.

I'm not sure. But I would guess no. The main issue with going from rca to HDMI is an actual difference in the type of signal. Rca is still analog. Without a signal converter the equipment can't interpret the signal. Some TVs have a built in converter in which this could work. You will need to check your TV specs.
