Re: New Laptop does not have S-Video or VGA out

I have followed many of the links in this formum, but I still haven't found a solution to convert HDMI to RCA (R/Y/W).

I can find cables (HDMI to RCA) but my understanding is that the signal will need to be converted - so I need a converter, not just a cable.

I can find converters for RCA (input) to HDMI (output)

The converter that MTU sells is for VGA input only - not HDMI.

Help? Advice, solution? or if my thinking is flawed, please correct.
Thank you!
Converters for HDMI to Composite or svideo seem to be the most expensive type, the cheapest I have found is about $100 like this one:

I have no experience of this type so am not recommending it just showing you the type of converter.
