Will this box direct analog CATV (via ant/coax input) to the yellow RCA output for use with an AV receiver-to-RF mod-to-CRT setup? VGA is not needed.

Yes..an adapter box with ( S-video ) input ports and rca output ports is needed. The S-video cable will run from the output port to the adapter box input port.

You need an RF de-modulator to take your coax signal and convert it to composite video this is what this box is designed for. With the dip switches set for the channel you want to watch. This unit does one channel select. There are other boxes out there that allows for multible channel selection like "PcConnectTM Coax F-Pin Cable tv to RCA Audio/Video Demodulator, and TV to VGA Converter".

It will with in the sense that it will pull in stations over the air. It works great, I'm using it with my projector which has no tuner. This box has hdmi and yellow red white, and coax output. The picture is fantastic over hdmi. I can't speak for the other 2 methods, but according to the(limited) included instructions, it outputs over coax over either channel 3 or 4, with a selector switch.Matt

If you're trying to use your existing home stereo than you only need to get a basic VGA cable (red, white, yellow). Just plugin the red/white to the "out" on the television, and plugin the red/white on the other end of the cable into any of the video inputs on your stereo receiver. You only need the red and white because those are the audio, you can leave the yellow unplugged as that is for video. Good luck! Michael

If you have cable you shouldn't need this box. This is for a regular antenna to convert digital signal back to analog on the older tv so you can view

This converter box only allows RCA jacks on the input to go to HDMI output.You probably want some sort of VGA to HDMI converter.Search Amazon for this one QVS HVGA-AS VGA Video/Stereo Audio to HDMI Digital ConverterIt does sound and video.Just video converters are less expensive.Good luck!

Coax for antenna is not necessarily the same as coax output of a cable box.For example, what if the tuner was only an ATSC tuner and not an analog tuner? Then it definitely wouldn't work. (Also, [obsolete] analog OTA & analog cable [which is disappearing for most] differ above a certain channel.)

It should work for that purpose. At this time I am not using my coax cable input at all and have this converting my coax cable to red, white and yellow RCA inputs on my TV.

RCA and VGA are not compatible. This cable will not do what you want. You will need a converter box (Sabrent makes one for example)

Short answer: NoLong answer:Because this cable does not actually convert the signal from analog to digital, if you did hook up your box with this cable to the TV the signal received by the TV in the HDMI port it wouldn't understand, and would not display anything. (The output of your box being RCA outputs an analog signal, while HDMI is a digital signal.) Hope this helps.

Ditto for the Cablevision hd box - much better video using the component video inputs. Thanks for sharing.

I purchased the box to convert a older receiver with only component output to HDMI input on my LCD TV that did not have but a single set of component jacks input. It works fine just match the component color coded cable into the PETRHP V1 and HDMI cable to your input. worked fine for me.

The coaxial on this box is for audio not "cable" and it's output only. Not sure if this is what you mean.

Yes, you need to buy an optical to RCA converter as I did... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BVT4M30/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I suppose it depends. Fortunately for me, I used part of a KVM extension cable for the video signal and an audio extension cable.Sorry, this probably doesn't help much. The video is card is significantly important with this connection. I wish I would have paid a bit more for a conversion box as oppose to using this cable. Conversion boxes improve the quality.

No you cannot. This unit allows you to connect a digital INPUT signal (optical or coaxial (orange rca)) to the box and OUTPUT analog audio signal on the red and white rca connectors. It does not output on the optical port.

Yes, I believe so, but not when using S-Video input. S-Video is video only; no sound. The RCA jacks will accept audio, and it should be sent out over the coax just like TV.
