I have a 15 year old VHS player with 3 RCA plugs for output. My new TV has only HDMI inputs. Will this item work? What is your recommendation?

Do not buy this cable - it attaches to sockets but doesn't convert analog signals to digital. Better to spend under $40 on a signal converter that works, than $10 on a cable that does nothing.

No this will not work you need a converter box that needs to be powered wich is also sold here on amazon.

If your vcr has rca outputs (red white and yellow) you can use this adapter. If it just has an antenna cable output you need something else

correct. and I am told that any regular old RCA cable will do. One other thing,though. I discovered that my TV's optical coax out is not always hot. It is not hot if the input is from a HDMI cable. That's a TV-specific issue. Might want to check yours to be sure. Have fun.

Bought this and can tell you, only hookup to TV was the HDMI. When put in the VHS tape, no audio cables involved, the tape audio played fine. No audio cables were connected to anything. Not a thing. Only HDMI from Magnavox to TV HDMI....that

Depends on what you want to do and what kind of inputs your TV has. If you want it to play VHS and DVD on your TV, it has HDMI, S-Video, and composite video outputs. If your TV can accept one of these, then that works. It does not have an RF receiver. So, If you want to record incomming television, it won't work. If you want to copy VHS to DVD (the reason I bought it), then all you need a monitor (your TV or computer monitor (HDMI can be cheaply converted to a monitor's DVI)) so you can read and operate it's menues.

I'm hearing conflicting reports that it does NOT up convert the VHS signal through HDMI, while some say it does up to 1080i. Does anyone know what exactly the VHS output is through HDMI?

I would suggest getting a new TV if your budget permits. Newer models have all the inputs you need to hook up DVD player/recorder. Otherwise you need an RF converter to convert the audio-video outputs to a single coax cable which will work with any TV.

I assume you are referring to using your HDMI port on the TV? If that is the case, it will work if you buy one of these to convert the analog signal. Tmvel mini RCACVS 3 RCA Composite Video AV to HDMI Converter for TV/PC/PS3/Blue-Ray DVD

This device is excellent for connecting equipment that only has RCA output, which I have used for DVD, VHS, NES, works great, excellent, would recommend.

You'll need to look at the outputs on your older box and match up accordingly. My guess is you'll want RCA cables that are the yellow red white ones. I believe on this TV it either has a yellow colored input or is one of the 3 red/green/blue component inputs for the yellow composite video input. If any of this doesn't make sense the terms I used should show up quickly on a Google search. Hope this helps. Also the HDMI won't be applicable to your older VCR. Even if you could use it the video quality sent from the VCR will still be as bad on a flat screen as what you'll get with the rca cables. Summary: look at VCR/DVD back and match accordingly.

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!!

One of the outputs on the CRF940 is for RCA & S-Video. You should be able to connect your older tv to that output, if I understand you correctly. Take a look at the Amazon photo of the back of the box and you will see an output that may fit the bill for you.

Yes, this should work fine. The unit functions as an HDMI port when hooked up by RCA 3 wire to your TV.

If they use RCA cables, then probably yes. This is a splitter just for RCA cables. I have an old TV and only one input, so I got this to switch back and forth between Dish, Roku and my DVD player. So there's one set of cables from the 3-port to the TV, and then all three devices are plugged into the port. But if any of your devised use and HDMI or USB cable, it won't work.

Can you please explain this? I have been using a tv from 1995 and use a co-axial cable to hook it up. I am not familiar with HDMI cable, so if this is the only type that plugs into the tv, how can I hook the other end up to my cable box and DVD player? The cable box is newer so may be compatible, but the DVD player is fairly old as well. I don't want to buy a tv that I can't use my DVD player with. Thank you!

it will not work if your tv isnt HD. This cord is for systems that has HDMI port to connect to a HD TV that doesnt have HDMI port in the back of the system. does not work for old tvs lets just say it like that. and its also good for DVD player to connect to HD TV when dvd player doesnt have HDMI port. hope that helps.
