Will this work to display from a laptop to a HDTV, video only. There are rca video inputs available

NO IT WILL NOT. these are two different technology's. This is exactly what I bought it for and the screen was just blue. I went and talked to Radio Shack and they said the only way to do it is to buy a converter box. I just got a new video card for my laptop and it was about the same price. Don't waste your money.

I use it to feed to a projector with RCA component inputs and it works great. It should work with a TV with component RCA inputs.

Hi JoyceI like to experiment and use things for purposes they weren't really made for. Most times it works. What u propose here could be done if you had an external 12v dc power supply and a rca type "video out" port on your laptop. Caution: Being an experiment, there is a chance you could damage both, the monitor and/or your laptop. Never having seen your laptop, I can't address compatibility so if you have the correct connections or are experienced in electronic modification it could be possible but there are risks as stated above. ~mjp

No, it did not work for me. HDMI is diigital and component RCA is analog. They are incompatible. I was trying to connect my PC to a TV that does not have HDMI input. There is a small chance that if your HDMI source is a computer you may be able to change the computer HDMI output to analog but my understanding is that there are few computers that have the capability. My TV does have a DVI input so I bought a HDMI to DVI cable for the video. Then I use a separate cable from the PC headphone output to get the audio. That does work.

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 -&gt; VGA). I would look for an active adapter for your needs.

Probably not. This converter is for changing an HDMI signal into a VGA signal. Not the other way around. If your PC/Laptop has HDMI out, just use an HDMI cable. If your computer has VGA out, just buy a VGA to HDMI cable.

If I understand your question correctly, no. This cable is intended to connect FROM a DisplayPort output on your laptop to a VGA input on a monitor or projector.

No, this won't work for you (the ports are reversed from what you want: your laptop must have an HDMI port, and your monitor must have VGA port).

I don't think this would be the best product for that purpose, I would imagine the best solution would be to simply run some video cable from the laptop to just another screen instead of another pc if at all possible. Best of luck on your search.

I know of no reason why not - once the Data Stream has been converted from Digital [HDMI] with the Video and Audio information separated to Analog Composite [aka RCA], the receiving equipment will not know the difference between this converted signal and any other [normally] generated RCA information.

Yes, sorta. My tv is an HDTV that has a VGA port and two RCA jacks (Red and white). My laptop has a VGA port and a headphone jack. To get sound from the PC to the tv I have to use an adapter that attaches to one end of the cable (The 3.5 male end), and splits it into the red and white RCA jacks. Works great.

No, this product will not. You will need to buy a different product that converts VGA to RCA.

No. This will only convert video (or s-video) to VGA (not VGA to RCA) - it only has a VGA output

This cord will not work for you. First off its a Display Port to HDMI. Display port is not USB. Another Thing is, the HDMI on this is a female end, not a male end, and i assume the connection on your laptop is a HDMI Port.I'm Not even sure you can use the USB port on your TV for video, I'm pretty sure most TV's only work for HDMI for Video+Audio, or VGA for video Only(No Audio).

It should work. My TV had a DVI input plus separate audio in (RCA pin type ones). I am pleased with the product. I use 3.5mm stereo to RCA pin (red/white) cable with the product to make the audio connection.

Yes, this will take HDMI from your PC to standard VGA output which you can connect to any VGA input device

No this will not work for you. The HDMI signal can't be converted to an RCA signal with out sometype of converter box and honestly I don't know if they make that type of converter.
