The "Component In" port has just the green input...should it not have Red, Green, and Blue? Has anyone used the component connector successfully?

Jason, I have only used the HDMI ports. I am sorry I couldn't help you with your question...

I have an older DVD player connected to the component input. You should have two "breakout cables". One has RGB and the other is Yellow/Red/White. The Red and White are the shared audio input for both the A/V and Component inputs. Some DVD players offer several component formats, so check it's setup also. Color coding can vary too.

No I can't because I can't even figure out how to use a nine pin connector when your computer monitor is using the only 9 pin connector to the CPU ? Can I please get help with that ? I tried to use a splitter and it distorts the picture on the monitor .

Very doubtful. First, this isn't just RGB. It's component cable, which (over-simplification) was first generation HD (480i). Plus, I needed a HDMI to component cable (480i) and this cable didn't work.

Bob, can you tell me a little bit about what components you are connecting and what you are trying to accomplish?

While I cannot specifically answer on your particular serial device, I want to let you know that I've tried other adapters and they have failed to create a port. This Keyspan has been successful in every device that I have connected to it. So far, I'm at 100% success rate, but that is not a guarantee for you.

I believe you are plugging your red wires in incorrectly. The red blue and green go to the component plugs. The red white and yellow go to the a/v plugs. Swapping the reds would cause the problem you describe.

I just went and looked at mine and can find no input port so I guess the answer is no.

No, it does not. ): Component inputs HAS to be component out, and it is the same for everything else. HDMI out only works for HDMI inputs and so forth.

Mine didn't work at all. I bought it to hook together multiple legacy game systems to a TV with one component set of inputs.

D.Cheng reports he found adaptor. I did too. However, keyboard still does not work when connected. Can D.Cheng tell us how he made the keyboard functional???

I would disagree with the last response to this question if the photo on Amazon is accurate. I don't own one of these yet, but the photo appears to show a 9-pin serial port. The two video connections that I see are HDMI and Mini Displayport.

It will work with a component output (3) or an rgbhv (5). It won't work with a single composite output.

You can absolutely use the yellow cables! Just plug it into the green port. I have my gamecube, n64, and ps2 hooked up this way. Just a note though-you cannot use the yellow cable AND the 3 component cables at the same time. It has to be one or the other for the devices to all work correctly.

I'm having the same problem. No issues with the component connection, but problems with the HDMI connection. It sometimes shows fine and sometimes shows no signal (or takes 10-15 seconds to change channel). It is perfect with the Component connection.Like the others here I have a Samsung HD Cable box from Time Warner.

Yes. Composite (Red/Yellow/White) shares a port with Component (Blue/Red/Green). The Green Component Port is the Yellow Composite Port

Yes, I have the red, white and yellow connections along side of the s-video plug. I was under the impression those were only to support s-video. Are you saying that I can just use those connections without the s-video plug, then set my input to the s-video and it will work?

Hi, as far as I can see, you can't hook it up as a component to another system. On the back I can only see hook ups for external speakers. I don't see any other output/input ports. Hope that answers your question.
