StarTech VID2VGATV Overview

The black Startech Composite and S-Video to VGA Video Scan Converter with Scaler provides a simple way to convert Composite or S-Video signals to VGA (or Component RCA) output, for use with computer monitors, projectors, or HDTV sets.

Equipped with an On-Screen Display (OSD) menu and dip switches for simple configuration and selection of your video output settings, this compact video scaler installs quickly and easily for a true plug-and-play experience. An integrated scaler circuit dynamically converts the S-Video or Composite video input signal, giving you multiple output resolutions to choose from, to ensure compatibility with your display or projector. Plus, the Component/S-Video-VGA converter includes a VGA to Component (RCA) breakout cable, which enables you to connect to TV sets that are not equipped with a VGA port.

General
  • Automatically detects the input resolution while allowing you to customize the output resolution and refresh rate using the on-screen display, ensuring compatibility with your display or projector
  • Adjustments for brightness, contrast, color, RGB level and horizontal/vertical positioning offers flexibility
  • Offers a pure hardware design, with no software installation required, delivering an easy-to-use and time-saving solution

works great

I used this unit to convert the s-video output of a teleconference unit to VGA. Picture quality was excellent, no perceivable artifacts in the upconversion of the video. If I had only one gripe it would be the selector button that selects the input from either baseband video or s-video. (not worth losing a star over) Since it is a push button that toggles between the two it can be inadvertently hit and you of course would loose picture.

OK for some application, but no mine

The device worked well right out of the box for some equipment. It seems to be effective for my need of converting S-video signal to VGA to run through a 4 x 4 matrix, but output does not scale to the demands of my 60Hz scanning TV - it simply rejects the low resolution. My understanding is that the scaler fixes that problem, but not in this case. Other projectors/monitors are OK with it, but not the TV I need to send to. Starpak's S-video 2 USB capture cable running through another computer allows the signal to hit the TV, with resolution standards that work.
