Question  S-Video output? by David

 VGA to TV Convertor by Paul Skinner

This product is excellent considering its price.

I'm using it with the late 2008 model MacBook Pro as Apple has decided to no longer offer the option of an adapter for s-video or composite.

The picture output from this box is very, very good and 'installing' it is simply a matter of plugging it in to an empty USB port.

It comes supplied with:
USB power cable
VGA male->male cable (female socket on box)
Composite cable (yellow phono type cable)
Instructions that are amusingly translated

All in all, I would recommend this product especially considering its price.

Question  Plug and Play by Paul Skinner

Is it possible to plug this in to a MacBook Pro without needing any drivers?

Also, does the USB cable (for power) come with the product?

Answer by stevenl on Thursday, April 30, 2009
While i cannot guarantee compatibility, the device is USB powered, not USB controlled, so it shouldn't matter what type of machine it was plugged into.

And Yes, the cable is supplied.

Question  Monitor as a TV by Max

Can this convert a freeview box using SCART to a computer monitor using VGA? So effectively I will use my monitor as a tv?

Answer by sophiek on Wednesday, October 15, 2008
Hi Max, sorry they are unable to do that as there is no SCART connection. It uses only S-Video in order to be able to play games on the TV.
