its tough to adjust correcty and you have to do it everytime you use it
Excellent product for watching videos from your PC to your television set although you need a stereo cable split to RCA audio for the sound to the television set.
I bought this little device to display digital photos being played on the computer and to watch internet tv. The picture quality is absolutely terrible-blury and extremely poor color reproduction.This even after playing extensively with the menu controls and running it through a dvd recorder to upconvert to 720p and HDMI. On the plus side device is very easy to use on very compact. Would reccommend for an old cruddy tv if you don't care about picture quality.
Reference my recently purchased LKV-2000 PC to TV Converter. I need a good composite output for another add-on application. This works fine.
The VGA output was fine. Tried every setup adjustment I could on the Laptop, the TV, and the converter, but no improvement or change. I could not get any acceptable image quality from the composite video (yellow RCA) and s-video outputs.
But if I plug the Composite video output into one of the AV inputs on the TV, I get what appears to be a dual image somewhat separated but overlaped and with lots of jitter. I am using a HP DV6700t Laptop about a year old and a Samsung HL-P6163W HDTV. I plug the Laptop VGA output into the converter and plug the converter VGA output into the PC input on my TV.
Exactly the same problem using the s-video output(and on another TV). Too much of a hassle to send back so I guess I will just eat the cost.
I find that text is too fuzzy to read without large fonts for the OS when I use 1024x768, so I keep my computer set to 800x600.A word of advice, do not let your computer automatically adjust your display size because it will automatically detect 1152x864 which is an unsupported resolution. The device came set to PAL, but once I switched it to NTSC it was easy to configure.The size and position for horizontal and vertical are easy to set, but the device forgets my settings every time I turn it off. Since I am powering the device from the computer's USB port instead of using a separate power supply, this happens every time I turn the computer off.Since the device sits behind my computer and TV, I find it easier to live with only being able to see the top 60% of my lower panel (GNOME) or task-bar (Windows) than it is to re-configure the device every time I turn on my computer.My TV is about 37 inches and not high definition (free at the dumpster when my neighbors got a HD flat-screen :-) ). At this resolution, my TV flickers and there is double-image with most text un-readable. Depending on your OS, this may or may not be possible to prevent, and it can be very difficult to override since the screen is garbled when you try to change the settings (especially if you don't know the keyboard commands for your OS).
