Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars OK, but output quality is questionable.   August 2, 2007
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have used this on an HDTV, so this rating is based on the quality of the component HD output and not on the VGA output.

The good news is that it works and you can set and adjust the resolution and the picture color and other parameters. The only thing that did not work was the 480P output from the Nintendo Wii. The 480i output from the Wii have worked but with poor quality of 720p/1080i ouput compared to the 480P output without the vid2vgatv scaler.

The output from other sources worked fine, although you might be disappointed especially if you had high expectations like I did. Even after adjusting the color, contrast, brightness ... etc., if you compare the output of the vid2vgatv output to a upscaling dvd player, there is a considrabel difference, the quality of the upscaling dvd player is way much better.
