Product Information

Full details

This QGECEN AV to HDMI converter is for users looking to connect older composite AV devices like VHS players, game consoles, or DVD players to modern HDMI displays. Its key benefit is upscaling analog signals to 720p or 1080p for a clearer picture on HD TVs. A potential caveat is that the quality of the upscaled image will depend on the original source's resolution and signal quality.

FAQs

Does this converter require drivers?

No, the QGECEN converter is plug and play and does not require any driver installation.

What devices can I connect to this converter?

You can connect devices with composite AV output, such as VHS players, DVD players, older game consoles (like PS2, Wii, N64), and camcorders.

Can this converter improve the quality of my old VHS tapes?

The converter upscales the signal to 720p or 1080p, which makes it compatible with modern TVs. However, it cannot add detail that is not present in the original analog signal. The viewing quality will be limited by the original tape quality.

What power source does it use?

The converter is powered via a USB cable, which needs to be connected to a USB power adapter or port.

Does it support both PAL and NTSC formats?

Yes, it supports multiple standard TV formats including NTSC3.58, NTSC4.43, PAL, SECAM, PAL/M, and PAL/N.

Can I switch between 720p and 1080p output?

Yes, there is a switch on the device that allows you to select between 720p and 1080p output.

Will this work with my new 4K TV?

Yes, it will output at 720p or 1080p, which your 4K TV can accept. However, the input signal is still standard definition upscaled, so the image will not be true 4K quality.

Troubleshooting

No image or audio on the TV

Ensure all AV and HDMI cables are securely connected at both ends. Verify the USB power cable is connected and providing power. Check that the correct HDMI input is selected on the TV. Try switching the output resolution (720p/1080p) on the converter.

Flickering or distorted video

Check the quality and condition of the AV and HDMI cables. Ensure the USB power source is stable and sufficient. Try connecting to a different USB power adapter or port. Ensure the selected output resolution is supported by your display.

Incorrect colors or picture quality

Verify that the AV cables (red, white, yellow) are plugged into the correct corresponding color ports on both the source device and the converter. The quality is limited by the original analog source; try a different source device to compare.

Converter not powering on

Confirm the USB cable is securely connected to the converter and the power source. Try a different USB port or a known-good USB power adapter. Ensure the power source provides sufficient amperage.
