Can watch movies OK

ByNina Novikovaon January 23, 2009

Verified Purchase

If your goal is to watch movies, it's OK toy. I've got it to watch Netflix instant movies. Can watch them on a laptop, but it's much more relaxing to watch movies on TV screen.What you need to know about this device - you would need to spend money on additional cables.
I connect the QuickPlay convertor to my laptop VGA port, the USB port connection will provide power supply.
My TV has both - component video and S-video. The guys at computer store told me, that component video works better.
So I decided to go with component video. So if you decide to do that, the cables you would need:
Component video cables (3 in one or three separate) - green, blue and red. They would need to have mail connectors on both sides of the cable, they will connect to Pr, Pb anf Y ports on your TV and on QuickPlay.
This is for video. Then you would need an audio cable to connect your laptop audio port(one connector) to two audio ports on your TV (White and Red - to connectors). Radio Shack has these cables, they can be 6ft or 12 ft. I've got 12 ft - can have your laptop on a distance from TV.
Now, when you connect all cables, you would need to adjust your laptop resolution to 1024 by 768. My 32" TV has almost same resolution. The screen of TV has a little different proportion, the horisontal dimension is a little larger. You will see little empty areas on the TV screen on both sides of the screen when picture transferred from laptop screen to TV screen, because TV screen is longer.
One more thing to know after all cables are connected and laptop and TV are on - first, switch your TV to "Component Video" mode (it's usually on your remote TV/Video button), second - switch your laptop to "presentation" or "external display" mode (in most of the laptops it's fn/F7 combination of keys).
Ok - now you will see the picture on TV. It took me a while to figure it out. I hope, this review will help you to do it faster.
The picture is fine, it's max 32" TV resolution anyway. The only thing - when it's a dark picture, it's kind of dark green color instead of dark grey. May be it's just my TV.
Enjoy. I was watching Netflix after that with no problem.

Not the best, but works

ByElizabethon February 28, 2014

Verified Purchase

The AVerMedia Quickplay is not the best scan converter, but its definitely the best bang for your buck. I bought it to output music videos from my macbook pro to video systems. The build quality is great...it has held up for years. It doesn't have a lot of features but its main capability of converting pc signals to tv works flawlessly.

It works fine with a mac or pc and allows you to output to a computer monitor as well as to pc. Quality on the composite and s-video is very poor, but that's to be expected from those outputs. The component video output is excellent as long as you are running a good resolution on the computer.

I mainly use the s-vidoe and component outs. S-Video is useable as long as you have a high quality video source and your resolution is 640 and above. I usually run 800 and higher.

If you need to display your pc on a tv and you don't need HD quality, then this is perfect.

Tekky look at the avermedia scan converter

ByTechhyon July 25, 2008

Verified Purchase

This device is super tiny, and I made it even tinier by surgically removing the "monitor thru" cable (which would never get used by myself), along with the non composite outputs, which lessened the bulk and of course voided my warranty. Well the unit I got was used, and it had a "crushed" brightness switch - a testament to its fragile nature, but I had one just like it on another scrapped device and replaced it easily (surface mount pushbutton). It is easy to use, requires no drivers and does not slow down the PC whatsoever. I just wish they would make it with a miniature TV transmitter in it! -(I may add that ability...)
Anyway the unit has good scan conversion for playing DIVX (how I tested it!) and since my laptop (toughbook) only supports 1024x768 it is ideal, but if your machine is "larger" then you need to be aware it will not support higher resolutions!
The unit gets a little warm when operating, I expect that is normal since there are "vent" holes/slits in the casing. And the casing itself is incredibly cheap made, it has no screws at all- simply presses together! I think if there was any other device like it I would have chosen a tougher unit, but there is not one presently. And if there was it would certainly cost more. I have yet to reinforce this casing by setting a bead of "goop outdoor adhesive" at the seams (from the inside) which will set to form a "frame" and hold the case together at the same time. (goop is non conductive and works great even on top of chips & it is somewhat thermal conductive, so if you do this on the chip, you may implant a strip of metal for a heat-pipe.) I will only do this in case the housing gives me problems, as I expect it should not harm the PCB when it does break off, then anything else is easy to fix...
The cables are long enough to put your PC on top of a TV and the USB and MONITOR "in" cable are the same length, the quickplay unit will dangle behind the set, but it works perfectly even if it is cheaply housed.
I rate it high because my $5000 laptop did not come with TV out. (thanks Panasonic! At least it is rainproof...) And there is no other scan converter that does not require a power supply. This one is simple as can be to use and hook up.
I recommend it, but I suggest being careful with it physically...
--- something that is hard for a Toughbook owner to do...
