Component video is becoming the forgotten high-def connection. As we've shifted from analog HD to digital HD, and now 4K, equipment makers have cut back on or eliminated component video connections on many A/V receivers and other gear. This audio/video adapter from Metra ethereal lets you connect your game console or other gear to your HDMI-equipped A/V receiver or TV.
The CS-CVHDM accepts video resolutions from 480i to 1080p. It takes that video signal and stereo RCA audio signals and converts them to HDMI-ready digital signals. The CS-CVHDM requires AC power to function, and includes an AC power adapter.

Average Customer Review(s):
The product works great. And it is more compact in size then I imagined, so that was another plus. I'm very happy with my purchase.
Pros: Produces a great picture on my HD tv. Compact in size.
Cons: None so far.
I connected this unit to my 2004 BOSE 3 2 1 series II GS, which only has component out and needed the converter to convert to HDMI to connect to my new Samsung 65 in TV. The item doesn't work and Crutchfield is sending me a replacement. If it works then I may increase my rating of this product.
