HDMI converter

[Fuzzy]

My trusty old 1080p plasma has recently developed a fault and so has been replaced under warranty with a new 4k TV.

Lovely, except the new set only has HDMI inputs.

Is there such a things as a *good* component/s-video to HDMI converter so I can play my beloved PS2 and Atari VCS?

Since the replacement is 'lesser', you should complain until you get something at least as good

Buy the cheapest active one (with it's own separate power) that you can. I think the low end is about £30. Hopefully it'll work better than the VGA to HDMI cable I bought.

Richer Sounds by any chance?
just had my 1080 plasma swapped out for a 4k set too

legacy inputs are a thing of the past it seems

anyway if you want this for gaming you'll need something with as little lag as possible
so the only thing that fits that bill is a Micomsoft Xrgb mini framemister

awesome bit of kit
I just sold mine before my TV died
and now i need another one lol

Well, the poorly telly was a 59" 1080p smart Plasma.

The replacement is a 60" 4K SUHD HDR LED, I think I've not done too badly out of it. Just ****ed off I can't play my Atari.

Buy a Samsung TV and 5 year warranty, TV guaranteed not to last that long, well not for me anyway
