PORTTA Component to HDMI Converter, 5 RCA YPbPr + R/L to HD Video Converter, RGB to HDMI Adapter, Compatible with Wii, PS2, PS3, DVD, Xbox 360, HDTV, Monitor, Projector

Very easy to setup. I use it for my old Wii, was a bit worried about the image quality at first but it proved ok, even on my big tv. It’s slightly blurred but not pixelated. The images are smooth and I haven’t experienced any blackout. Very happy, I can play my Wii again!

Used this to connect my original xbox to a modern tv with only hdmi input.My son has taken the only tv that has component input, off to university with him, so i need a solution to connect to one of the other tv's in the house, neither of which have component input.My xbox is soft-modded (many years ago), with the enigma ntsc mod thingy, hd dashboard resolutions enabled, and a decent Konig component cable.Component output for Halo CE and Black was very good, crisp etc, no noise, good sound.I cannot do a side by side comparison, but i can say that this converter worked for both games, no artefacts andsound is nice and clear, to be honest it looks the same.Resolution for both of these games is 480p, i think, box passes through at same resolution.The picture did not stretch to fit the whole screen, this is a function of the tv, to which i do not have the remote, soi will do some further testing on the other tv, to see if i can get a decent full screen image etc.The converter comes with a power adaptor, which i used, but did not come with hdmi cable.I will try it without the external power adaptor to see if it still functions.The plan is to use this adaptor with my original Wii console as well, will give an update when i have done some testing with the Wii.Update 18/11/19Tested with Wii and it works perfectly at 480p. Still using provided, not tried it unpowered, sound and picture are good, no dropouts on either.

Works well, no problems.

This dainty little box has given my first generation XBox 360 a new lease of HD life.The first generation XBox 360 didn't have a HDMI output and only supported HD video in the form of component output at 1080i.Many/most new televisions don't support component except through an adaptor which, for a number of reasons including the need to hide cables in an in-wall installation, I didn't want to use. I also wanted to leave open the option to use HDMI ARC audio control directly in to a soundbar.The Portta component to HDMI box really is a neat solution to the problem of using older component HD devices with newer televisions.It's simple to set up using the colour coded video input sockets (green, blue and red) and audio input sockets (red=right and white=left).There's a UK plug mains adaptor to power the device. A blue LED tells you that device is receiving mains power and the LED remains on whilst the device is plugged in to the mains i.e. it remains on all the time and not just when a signal is being passed through the unit to the HDMI lead. This is the only minor shortcoming I can think of - you have a blue LED smiling at you discretely.The picture quality is very good and I have no complaints although, I would say, the picture is not quite as crisp as when using analog component. This is not a criticism at all of the Portta device and is really just to point out the old argument about the quality of component versus HDMI. This is very subjective and probably nitpicking. The most extraordinary thing, for me, was how this little box pushed a perfectly sized and nicely coloured screen at the correct 1080i resolution to the television. Obviously you aren't going to get a 1080p picture from a 1080i source and the Portta box can't help you out with this!The box is very light and doesn't get hot when powered on so, if my experience is anything to go by, will sit very comfortably inside a tv cabinet/stand and not take up much if any room.It's a great device and I would not hesitate to recommend it especially if you have a good quality legacy device, such as an old XBox 360 or a DVD player, that you want to use with a new television that doesn't support raw component input or with a HDMI ARC audio soundbar.

Very defective product. When it works, it looks great but after about 20 minutes of use when the device warms up, the picture blacks out for a few seconds as if there's some interference. This happens intermittently and is very annoying. I've bought two and I returned the first for this very reason but even the second did this. For the price, that is unacceptable. Don't bother with this.

Anyone who has tried capturing footage from a ps3 using an elgato capture card will know the struggle, so I had an idea since the hdmi Port on my ps3 is broke I had no other option but to use the "multi out" on the ps3 using some component cable I had lying around, together with this device I am now able to capture footage on my elgato hd 60s through the second hdmi port on my xbox one x and its working brilliantly. So the ps3 using component cable hooked up to this device and then the hdmi cable from this to the 2nd hdmi port on the xbox one x and then the xbox is hooked up to elgato, the reason I'm putting all of this here is because when I first realised that elgato and ps3 wouldn't work I tried finding a solution with everyone saying a hdcp splitter is the only option, problem is when looking for hdmi hdcp splitter it's a gamble as some work and some don't so if anyone out there is struggling like me then there's always this option
