Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

The perfect accessory for enjoying DVD players or other audio/video components through older television sets, RCA's auto switching CRF910 accepts video inputs from three separate sources (RF, composite-video, and S-video) and routes their AV signals through its coaxial RF video output. This would also be a fine asset for transferring S-VHS video or camcorder content to an older VCR lacking the requisite composite-video (yellow RCA jack) or S-video (black five-pin) inputs. A single set of stereo analog (left/right) RCA audio inputs handles the source sound.

The unit's versatile design supports both horizontal and vertical placement, and its gold-plated audio and video connectors ensure maximal conductivity and minimal corrosion so you can set it and forget it--the terminals won't need cleaning in two years. A VCR-like output switch lets you select channel three or four for your TV viewing.

What's in the Box
Switcher, AC power adapter, and an instruction sheet.

5.0 out of 5 stars It doesn't get much easier!, November 15, 2004

I purchased one of these when we wound up with an extra DVD player due to a TiVo purchase. (The TiVo has one built in! Anyway...) We moved the DVD player to our bedroom TV which is an older set--old enough that it lacks the required connections that would make it compatible with our DVD player.

One snazzy feature of this unit is its autodetect feature. It doesn't have an on/off switch--it just waits for signal to come through from the DVD player. Once it detects a signal, it turns itself on and starts outputting signal to the TV. This is especially nice for our situation, because who wants to get out from under the covers to turn on the RF modulator? Not me.

If you have an older TV that's still going strong, you really can't go wrong with this RF modulator. It's small enough that you can plug it in, tuck it behind your TV, and forget about it. I've even recommended it to my sister for the old TV in her basement that she wants to use for workout DVDs.

Keep an eye out at your local Mega-Lo-Mart for this unit--we found it for $10.

5.0 out of 5 stars why buy a brand new TV?, October 6, 2004

For a mere thirty bucks this nifty little thing lets you hook up a VCR, DVD player, video game, etc. to that ancient-yet-still-going TV you've grown very attached to but which doesn't have any RCA input plugs.

And don't worry, you can still keep your external antenna---it plugs right into the back of this box!

Phillips also makes RF modulators, I got mine from Walmart for the same price, it's got prettier Channel3/Channel4 lighs. : )

I'm sure all those slimy TV salespeople at Best Buy or Circuit City don't want you to find out about this device, though!

2.0 out of 5 stars RCA quality strikes again., February 6, 2005

Yep, I thought $30 was a pretty good price. I thought $25.99 on sale was better, so I bought it. Good looking, versatile, easy to use. We really liked it (frankly, we never thought about it again) for the 10 *** Months *** that it lasted. Yes, correct, months. But what can you do, there aren't a whole lot to choose from. Found a replacement for $20. Hooked it with no prob, same as before. It worked great for 4 hours and 35 minutes. Then it turned off, never to function again. Good luck finding one that works for a while.
