    Default Buzz 3000 on older TV without HDMI

    Want to connect a buzz 3000 to an older DLP Toshiba TV which has no HDMI inputs. The TV has component jacks, hoping there is a cost effective way of converting to use the same television with buzz. I'm sure some people must have run into this problem and have had success to convert. Please share your experience.

    That's not component, that's composite... If he meant composite (since many people use them interchangebly, then sure)

    Component, you can have these also:

    Code:
    Converts HDMI to component, VGA and optical..
    hxxps://www.primecables.ca/p-346399-acc-hdmi-component-hdmi-to-vga-or-ypbpr-component-video5rca-converter-with-optical-audio
    
    Or this cheaper cable (requires USB power however to drive the internal circuits):
    hxxps://www.primecables.ca/p-324873-cab-hdmi-5rca-6ft-hdmi-to-5-rca-ypbpr-rl-component-converter-cable-6ft-white-primecables
    
    If no USBpower available at the TV, you can also just get one of these:
    hxxps://www.primecables.ca/p-306833-cab-w05100cu-primecables-universal-usb-5w-wall-charger-single-port-5v-1aul-certified-foldable-plug-white
    
    Replace hxxps with https above for the links.

    So I've got it working, no issues using the converter cable that I just got! Works like a charm and saves 100's of dollars to not have to upgrade this TV yet

    Best part of all, compatible with buzz!
