Dtech HDMI To AV HD Converter (Metal Casing) | HDM-CNV-HA-MC

The HDMI to AV HD Converter (Metal Casing) is a useful device for converting modern HDMI signals to older composite AV (CVBS) and stereo audio (L/R) signals, allowing compatibility with legacy TVs, projectors, or other standard-definition displays.
Key Features:

Input: HDMI (supports up to 1080p @ 50Hz/60Hz, backward compatible with lower resolutions).

Output:

1 × Composite Video (CVBS) – Standard AV (yellow RCA) output.

1 × Stereo Audio (L/R) – White (Left) & Red (Right) RCA outputs.

Supports PAL/NTSC – Auto-detects or manually selectable (depends on model).

Metal Casing – Provides durability and better heat dissipation.

Power: 5V DC, 350mA (likely via USB or external adapter).

Common Uses:

Connecting HDMI devices (Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, streaming sticks, PCs) to older CRT TVs, analog projectors, or SD monitors.

Converting HDMI signals for car displays, security systems, or legacy AV equipment.

Useful for retro gaming setups where modern consoles need to connect to older TVs.

Limitations:

Downscales to SD (480i/576i) – Output is not HD, so expect lower resolution.

No upscaling – Cannot convert AV to HDMI (only works one way).

No HDMI passthrough – Only converts to AV, no simultaneous HDMI output.

Setup Guide:

Connect HDMI source (e.g., laptop, DVD player) to the converter’s HDMI input.

Connect AV output (yellow RCA for video, red/white for audio) to the TV.

Power the converter (via 5V USB or included adapter).

Switch TV to AV mode – The converted signal should now appear.
