My pics, movies and powerpoints look great on the big screen, and I'll be able to travel with my 12-inch laptop instead of lugging around a desktop replacement. This product is well worth the money I spent. The colors are a bit "loud" and webtext could be clearer, but this product does exactly what I bought it for at a great price. With this converter, I'm running 1024x768 on my big screen TV here. My 12-inch (TOS U205) laptop only has VGA out. I bought this converter kit because I'll be visiting family across country, and will need to show several powerpoint presentations, MPEG-4 videos, and pictures from my recent travels overseas. My brother's huge screen TV across country only has yellow composite video or S-Video inputs. It's simple to hook up and adjust the quality.
The speech was way ahead of the video but played fine on the laptop. I'm not a video tech all I can say is that playing some PVR recorded TV shows, the picture looked no worse (to me) than my regular cable feed.I did have a issue with video and audio synchronization but no reviews I read mentioned this problem which was very obvious to me. Fortunately the application I'm running (smplayer) provides the + and - keys for audio delay adjustment. I purchased this box to mate with my Asus eee PC laptop and feed a video signal to a TV. So far I've tested it on a CRT TV at home and it performed exactly as I expected. So maybe its something I'm doing and not the fault of the product.
It is impossible to read ANYTHING with this converter. To make sure it wasn't the projector, I tried it on a standard tv, same problem.Also, it supports very few resolutions for a laptop, put in the money and buy something of better quality. I hooked this product up to a projector after reading reviews that it was fine. You can watch a video, but you won't see any details.
All Im getting is a BLACK screen. wellgoing on reviews of this product.I purchased one.I have a Dell Vostro 1000.and have spent the last 3 and 1/2 hrs trying to get this to work. Ive called my Dell dealer twice.and still Nadda'.So I either take it in to get it to work or send it back.very disapointedSo far its no more then a lesson in frustration.Sk
Running video from a Media Center computer to a projector is clearer AND easier. Also, running S-Video from the E-Book PC to Video back to the Media Center makes screen captures better and easier. Absolutely worth it. Switching is also much easier.
