Had a Sony DVD player with one scart outlet could not use it on my new Sony TV; due to its scart input already be used. via a recorder. Then I discovered This Scart to HDMI converter. Please note that it does not come with a HDMI to HDMI high speed lead.? However, What Luck I already had one. I plugged it into the TV HDMI input and the other end into the HDMI output converter - then plugged my DVD player scart into the Converter and plugged the power plug ( provided) into the electric's - And behold a red light displayed. I placed a DVD film into my player and turned on. and found that To obtain a picture I had to adjust my TV set to HDMI. connection And I Immediately had a result. I had read previous criticism. about sound and colour . But this can all be adjusted via your TV set. The harsh colours received at first were soon adjusted via the TV hand set and quite honestly, the picture quality was superb and sound clear and sharp which suited my aged hearing. So ! At the moment it seems a very good investment. making use of a very good quality DVD player that I thought was obsolete . So! To-date!!! made a family very Happy, viewing all there stored DVD's . MANY THANKS B.H.
