Component to HDMI Convertor
My Sony Bravia is wall mounted and I only want a single HDMI cable going to it.
I have a 4-port HDMI switch box which allows me to switch between Sky and PS3, it works great. I now want to connect my Wii, but it currently only supports component. Is there a reasonably inexpensive way to convert component to HDMI so that I can use port 3 on the switch box rather than running another set of cables to the TV?

this will do it:
http://www.keene.co.uk/electronics/m...?mycode=CP261H but it's £150 this is not soemthing you'll be able to do cheaply i don't think. it might be worth putting the money towards an av amp with multiple hdmi inputs and component/hdmi upconversion. |

Depends on what you define as inexpensive! There is this;
http://www.tvone.com/1t-ypbprhdmi-main.shtml but it is £115 inc VAT. (and you can buy one from me. pm me for details/spec sheet)or this at $199 plus shipping & duty from the USA, but there are bound to be UK stockists of Gefen kit; http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=4425 I can't find anything cheaper than that though. |

>>Depends on what you define as inexpensive!<<
So far the cheapest component to hdmi convertor I've found is £40 plus £6 P&P on Amazon, perhaps too good to be true (or at least decent PQ)? I certainly don't want to spend £100+, but circa £50 I could just about stomach. Any more than that and I'll just plug the normal Wii video outs into the jacks on the bottom left side of the TV. |
