      So I’m not no smart person I don’t know how these things are or what they’re called but I recently got so bored so I just found my old wii and there’s random wires and I see that the main thing is the red white and yellow plug thing and when I look at the back of my TV there’s only two holes for the plugs to connect... then the rest are box shapes or whatever ( I have a samsung smart tv )

    Just FYI you don’t need the converter. The Green port on the tv shows Y / Video for a reason. It is a component/RCA in one port. You put yellow in green port, and audio as normal and tv will detect if it’s rca or component connection

      i'm pretty certain that the "Y" marking on the green colored input of a component does not mean yellow. you have the green one marked y, a red one marked pr, and a blue one marked pb. all the ones i've had if you plug the yellow composite a/v cable into the green, you'll get black and white pic. the tvs that are made to use the composite yellow vid cable with the tv's component jacks will have split color on the jack. it'll be marked with both green and yellow on the same jack. these are designed to be used as either composite or component.

  • @WJCTechyman
    @WJCTechyman Год назад +28

    Y is the symbol for Luma. If you see a mini DIN on some devices labeled "Y/C" That's for separated or S-Video. The same goes for the back of some Commodore video monitors. There's a Y for the luma (strictly greyscale) video and a C (for Chroma) to define the colours. Y/Pb/Pr or component divides the chroma into two for blue and red colours. Your TV you may have to go through the setup menu to reconfigure the composite video as it may only appear as black and white by default. Other TVs it probably does this automatically.

    @danielvitolo2595 3 года назад +6

    For people who don’t have adapters or converters:
    TRY THIS ---->
    Step 1. Plug the Red wire in the Red Audio port
    Step 2. Plug the white wire in the white audio port.
    Step 3. Look for the port that says “Y” on top, it’s usually green.
    Step 4. Plug you yellow wire into the “Y” port.
    NOTE: If this doesn’t work, try to plug the yellow wire in the blue or red port until you get a picture on either of those.
    This works on 85% of new TVs when connecting old consoles. My son just bought an original Xbox, and there was literally no info. Except to buy an adapter. So I just figured this out on my own. Let me know how it goes. Take care.

    You didn't show at all what you need to connect into the back of the gamecube. Does something go into the AV slot or Digital slot? My gamecube is powering on but no image showing on the screen i've tried lots of different wires and adapters in the AV slot. I don't have anything that fits into the digital alot though, my TV even has the red white yellow slots in the back, i'm so confused.

  • @jcchaconjr
    @jcchaconjr 3 года назад +4

    I know this is a year later, and perhaps too late, but are you sure that there isn’t anything you need to adjust on the TV to convert the component Y inputti standard composite? It seems weird that it would label it “Y/video” if it didn’t have that feature. There must be something to let the TV know, because a Y Luma signal for component is much different than the composite signal, so I’m guessing there must be something in the TV’s menu to adjust what signal to expect for the input.

    “Y” is for “Gamma”, a greek letter which in lowercase looks very similar: “γ”. It denotes the luminosity signal - the black-and-white picture. The other two channels, chromatic red and chromatic blue, convey the color information. To learn more, see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YCbCr

      Johnny S I actually think it was the game being sensitive. I had to kind of take it out & put it back in a few times & usually you have to wait a few seconds after you turn it on. The blue screen is a good sign. Shows your on the right channel

    I hook my PS1 up to a TV by putting red and white cables into their respective ports and the yellow cable into the green port. It works.

      If you have the option to use component why not use it? Granted your using a N64 which is world famous for trash video output.. but if your console supports a component signal why settle for crappy composite. You guys asking about ps2, guess what it supports component. And keep in mind these cheap little analog to digital converters add lag to your signal. If you need to buy a scaler, go buy a OSSC if your that determined to play on a modern tv via HDMI. Composite to this scaler = garbage in and worse garbage out. Ugh

    Thanks so much for the video because I just tried to play my Game Cube w/the adapter to play Game Boy games to my Newer TV & no luck because it uses the R,W& Y Audio cords.
    Other than buying a AV2HDMI Converter do I need to purchase a HDMI cord or USB cord ??

    • @gamecubeplayer
      @gamecubeplayer Год назад +2

      if your gamecube has the digital av out then use a carby hdmi adapter because it's a lossless pure digital signal

    I'm having the same issues for my ps2 and xbox360 0cnsoles.... no sound. I tried using my hdmi cable for my blue ray player on the xbox 360 and it does work for video, but no sound. It's useless for the ps2 as there is ho hdmi port on the ps2 to hook into and add on my dang 24 inch smart tv does not have the audio/video ports to plug the av cables into. I have an input/output adapter that can hook up to 3 devices but the issue with that is, i need a cable with one end having the av cables to plug into the back of it, and the other ned needing to look like an hdmi cable to plug into the hdmi port on the back of the tv and i don't know where to get one of those. The adapter only came with a cable that has av plugs on both ends. HELP!!!!

    @luchoperetti182 3 года назад +2

    Hi! From what I can see on that TV back, it's basically the same as mine (hence no audio output at all to connect to an audio system). Have you had that issue too by chance? If so, did you find any solution? That's so annoying. Thanks in advance!
