StarTech.com 1 port S Video to VGA Video Converter 12 mm Length 1280 x 1024 pixel Maximum Resolution

This hassle-free adapter from StarTech allows users to convert and scale s-video and composite connections to a VGA output. It gives easy access to view legacy devices on an HDTV, LCD monitor or projector display.

Elegantly simple to use, it is truly plug in and play. And for added customisation and simplicity, the converter harnesses two toggle switches. The first switch is to choose output or mode and the other is to choose the resolution output, with a maximum choice of 1080p. StarTech have added an LED light that indicates which input port the device is using (yellow for composite video and red for s-video). The converter also operates a handy on-screen display menu to configure your video settings such as brightness, colour and contrast.

The s-video converter also comes with a VGA to component (RCA) breakout cable, enabling you to connect to displays that may not have a VGA port.

When you've decided on what cable you want to convert and scale, plug in the AC power cable to power the device. This converter is OS independent and does not require any external software to be downloaded in order to use it.

This VGA converter is perfect for someone who wants a simple way to continue using their legacy equipment, such as a VCR or DVD player. It's a cost-effective way to save on upgrading equipment and because it supports resolutions up to 1080p, you can enjoy old home videos on your HD TV or VGA monitor output. Because this VGA video adaptor enables scaling, it means when you connect it to a suitable VGA output, the image quality is increased and is typically better than before. If you're after something for work, this s-video can be used in the boardroom or even for medical imaging.
