Using ChromCaster on old TV: HDMI Converter or What?!
Hi!
I'm totally non-technical and totally lost.
I recently got a Google ChromeCaster. My brother lent me a new-ish (2- or 3-year old) flat-screen TV which had a place where I could plug the Chroimecaster right into the back. Worked nicely.
That was nice while it lasted, but he just asked for it back. Now I'm back to my 20-yer old Panasonic color TV and I can't figure out how to use it.
Someone suggested using an HDMI Converter, like this one from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Semlos-Composite-Converter-S...
Unfortunately, there's no mention of whether it would work for Chromecast & old TVs, and besides, there are a lot of negative reviews.
Like I said, I'm not technical so I can't figure it out.
A) Can anyone tell me if this approach would work for me?
and/or
B) Anyone have a better solution or suggestion that you know would work for me?
Thanks,
Richard
