This worked perfectly with my projector. Unfortunately, newer laptops only have HDMI connections and my projector has a VGA connection. This saved me from having to replace the projector.

Totally works as advertised - shows my laptop on the old TV - glad they have this little gem!

Excellent quality. Works perfect. Sturdy. Using it with a projector to connect devices with video component output to a projector with 15-DIN VGA/COMPONENT input. This is not a converter cable. Is intended to be used with devices as displays or projectors that have COMPONENT input in a 15-DIN VGA TYPE connector. I would recommend and buy again.

Awesome Product!
But do not use with a laptop docking station or you will have Blinking video issues.

The product works as advertised - I had a laptop without an s-video out - used the adapter to watch movies on my TV.
My setup was :
Laptop->VGA--S-Video-TV

This adapter is a must for anyone trying to hook a PC/Laptop to an HD TV. I have 2 computers hooked up to my 50" 720p Plasma TV, one is used as a media server and the other is used as a gaming rig. Prior to purchasing this cable I had my gaming rig hooked up with a VGA cable, I found that when I was using this cable the aspect was a little off and the brightness/contrast/color was also a little off. It seemed a bit blurry, faded or washed out. Since I purchased this DVI-to-HDMI cable everything is in perfect 720p aspect and all the colors appear accurate and vibrant. Reading text on the TV is MUCH easier which has always been an issue for me. Thank you for offering a great product at a very competitive price!

Pros:
- Excellent Build Quality
- Easy to use/ dual purpose. Can hook PC to TV, or hook a game console up to a PC monitor.
- Perfect HD Display
- Cosmetically Pleasing
- Inexpensive

Cons:
- None so far

This product is awesome! I tried in several stores to buy an HDMI cable to use to connect my laptop to my tv so I could watch movies. None of those worked and I returned them. This cable is compatible and works great! Now I can watch movies from my laptop to my bigscreen tv. I am very happy with this product and wouldn't hesitate to purchase it again. I just recommended it to someone looking for this type cable for her college aged daughter.

My wife wanted to connect her laptop to our non-HD television for watching movies.. Since both were older products the only option we had was to connect VGA to RCA. We were unable to find a product to do this at either Staples or Radio Shack. I had warned her that this was about the least preferred method of doing this and that picture quality would not be as good as on her screen.
  Hooking up this product was very simple. (Note: We already had the audio hook-up cables. This product DOES NOT have an audio hookup so if that is what you need you need to buy them separately or buy a product that includes them.) The tiny directions are in the usual poorly translated English. Only problem in hookup was two tiny switches that set it to PAL (European) or NTSC (american) TV signals. Switches are not labelled OFF/ON- turns out "down" is "ON" for NTSC. This product has very simple controls for adjusting the position of the picture and a small menu for color, size, sharpness, flicker and other values- there is no readout on these in terms of where they are set, you just have to press arrows.. Small fonts on the computer screen was fuzzy on the television- may not be a maximum sharpness. Picture for movies was fantastic- wife is ecstatic (always a good thing!). Follow the recommended sequence- turn everything off, connect cables, turn on television, turn on computer.
  If you want to do this type of connections I highly recommend this very inexpensive product.  All cables necessary for video hookup are included.

works well with any computer and projector, I'm loving it!

Just as described - works great.  Quality of manufacture and the signals are both great.  I use this to keep my laptop out of the way on the side of the room while the projector is in the center of the room. The boxes are connected by a CAT5 Ethernet cable that you supply up to 150M long.  Requires AC power for both sending and receiving units.  Also provides two VGA outputs at both the sending and receiving box.  Great for a local monitor. No drivers, adjustments, or configuration - just plug it in! Works great!

Works perfectly. We did a fund-raising show Event with one-computer to two projectors with this. It worked well, inputs/outputs are clearly labelled and we had no issues at all.  We used at one show with a MacBook Air, and at another with a Microsoft Surface as the input source.  As output we had two projectors and this worked very well.  No-hassle easy to understand, and easy to hook up and use. I RECOMMEND.

I now own two of these (one for work, one for home). In both scenarios, this adapter drives a third monitor under Windows 7 Enterprise on a Lenovo ThinkPad T420.

I'm a web developer, so my primary use is for an additional monitor for my development environment or webpage under development. I've seen no issues running the adapter under this configuration. I've also had good luck watching the occasional YouTube or Netflix video on the monitor driven by this adapter.

I highly recommend this product to someone looking to cost-effectively add an additional monitor to their setup.

Installation Note:
I ran into an issue during the re-installation of this adapter on a freshly re-imaged laptop.  I failed to follow the explicit instructions that advise you to install the software first, BEFORE plugging in the adapter.  Because I did this in the wrong order, I constantly received a BSOD (blue screen of death) every time I plugged in the adapter after the computer had booted into Windows. If you encounter this issue, here are the steps that I took to resolve it:

  1. Shutdown your system and plug in the adapter.
  2. Boot into windows (with the adapter plugged in). The monitor connected to the adapter will likely be black or frozen.
  3. Open Device Manager. Under "USB Display Adapters" you should see "DisplayLink Device". Right click it and choose Uninstall.
  4. Unplug the adapter.
  5. Install the adapter's software/drivers.
  6. Plug the adapter back in.
  7. Follow any driver/software installation prompts (you may be required to reboot after this).

Bought this to hook my laptop to a HD TV. Had already purchased the USB to VGA adapter from StarTech. Was able to get both adapters to coexist on the same laptop. The HDMI adapter provides a clear and sharp picture on a couple of different HD TVs with different resolutions (720p and 1080p) even though it is on a USB 2.0 port instead of a 3.0. Great product and great solution for laptops without an HDMI port.

Small, low cost, works perfectly.
Needed simple way to connect older projector to newer laptop. And to connect older laptop to newer display.
This little connector is perfect.
There are other ones that also have wires and connectors and power supply, to support not only video, but audio through hdmi also, and I use one at home for older projector to Hulu box. But bout several of these cheaper, simpler connectors for office use.
Hint: we hot glued a string to one in the conference room, (vga projector) to keep it near the projector cable (along with a Mac display adapter, so anyone can plug their laptop in when needed and not say "darn it, Where's the connector!"

The converter works like a charm on our new Dell notebook and vintage VGA projector.  It is well packaged, seems to be well built and works with no power except what the HDMI port supplies.  Recommended.
