If you are connecting laptop with VGA to HDMI TV, you are NOT going to succeed with this device. Scan and sync problems from 720p to 1080i. Successful only in 480p.

Needs custom resolutions and sync tweaks. Powerstrip doesn't work in laptops IGP.

1.0 out of 5 stars Does not work as described, December 20, 2008

By	13Degn (Texas) - See all my reviews

After trying two of the devices on two separate HD monitors, via two separate computers,trying all the possible output resolutions, we only got 1 setup to function and that was the pathetic original VGA 640x480.

A waste of a lot of time.

The converter works, though I have yet to figure out why there is no sound. My television gives me a warning that the signal is not in the correct format.

Outside of those two issues, the picture is crisp and clean. It is nice having a 52inch LCD Monitor, even without sound (which I rarely use anyway).

For the money, it is worth it if you want to have your laptop appear on your television and if you do not have a HDMI output.
