## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA3537:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA3537:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)

## Description

Do you have a S-Video display, projector or monitor that is not compatible with your HDMI devices? Here's an adapter that will allow you to convert HDMI to S-Video, for older video devices that might not have an HDMI input. S-Video has better performance than plain "RCA" composite NTSC/PAL as it separates the color and light level, so if you have a device that can take either S-Video or NTSC/PAL composite, you're better off going with S-Video! Note that you still won't get something as nice as HDMI, as analog is just noisier than high-definition digital.

This mini HDMI to S-Video signal converter box will convert HDMI video+audio signal to either Composite Video or S-Video - selectable by a switch on the side. You can do either NTSC or PAL encoding, also with a switch. Ta-da! Your HDMI-output-only device can now hook up to your analog TV.

- Output signal: Stereo line level audio Left and Right as well as Composite Video *or* S-Video
- Output video systems: PAL *or* NTSC
