If you need to convert any VGA or component signal into a digital high definition
HDMI signal up to 720p resolution, this conversion box will do the job perfectly. The only additional thing that you need to get besides this converter is an HDMI cable of the appropriate length.
This isn't something we take lightly here at Sewell Direct.
VGA to HDMI conversion has been one of the priority list toppers for us because we know there are a lot of people that need a reliable and simple solution that's also easy on the wallet. After about a year of looking around and testing unit after unit, we've finally found one that is inexpensive and gets the job done right if you're needing 720p.
Tested In House
Our engineers found this unit to work perfectly, with no bands of color striping the picture, no artifacts or blips, just perfect 720p digital video reproduction of the analog source (VGA and
component). A 2-second adjustment of the HDTV's vertical and horizontal on-screen fixed any slight black border around the picture.
Should I get this 720p scaler or a 1080p scaler?
The answer lies within how large your HDTV is. If you can honestly tell the difference between 1080p and 720p on your HDTV, then get the
Atlona VGA to HDMI with 1080p scaler. In general we'd recommend 720p scalers for HDTVs less than 37 inches. If you're planning on reading text from your VGA computer on your HDMI TV, then 720p might also be preferred because it will make the characters large enough to read from across the room.
