  • I used a HDMI to RCA converter that I bought from RadioShack. This will not give you HD but it works perfectly! Hope this helps.

    I just got a PS4 and noticed that my tv doesn't have an HDMI port. This adapter looks like it will work perfectly! I will look at Radioshack. I just wanted to say thank you for posting this, it was very helpful! :)

    Thanks, and god bless you. Got a ps4, couldn't find a single method for my junky old TV to connect it without buying a new TV, which we cannot afford, and this worked.

    What a life saver.
    I searched on Amazon first and found it but they sent me the wrong Damn cord so I had to haul ass and resend the mistake back to Amazon. Lesson learned. Glad I found this ONE. I'm gonna order it online - radio shack HDMI to Composite Converter
    Is what you want people.
    I'm sure it'll work - sidenote: it's on sale for $34.00 which beats buying a new tv!

    This video helped a lot. I was able to buy a cheap one of HDMI converter at the nearby Radioshack for only $35, which is way better than shelling out about 100 bucks just to buy a new flat-screen. My PS4 works and sounds fine, and the quality is awesome. Thanks a lot for your help.

  • @ahmadalshehabi1138
    @ahmadalshehabi1138 9 лет назад

    But i think the first step is disabling the hdcp option from the settings on your ps4 while using an hdmi enabled tv.
    and then you can turn off the ps4 and move it to the older tv and hook it up with this converter.

    • @WednesdayMan
      @WednesdayMan 9 лет назад

      +Ahmad Alshihabi it works with HDCP considering theres no hardware for the device it cannot tell if HDCP is going into it or not and since AV doesn't have a AV copy protection, this will allow you to put anything onto a Analog TV

    • @themudpit621
      @themudpit621 8 лет назад

      That's because you don't need a HDMI connection for PS3! PS4 doesn't accept av cables. My PS3 looks fantastic on my widescreen tube tv. Better than any lcd screen I've seen.

      the yellow is video, the white is a mono audio cable (usually red and white for stereo), so you can just leave the red unplugged. The white will usually split the mono audio into the left and right speakers (if you have them).
