atv2 and hdmi to vga or rca
#1
Hi guys,
Hope this is in the right area,...if not mods please move to the appropriate area.
I've recently purchased an atv2 and am loving it. but I would like to be able to take it to my work area and be able to watch it abit on my nightshift breaks. We have an older SD tv in our lunchroom. Is there anyway to convert the hdmi out on the atv2 to a vga or rca out?
Will one of these cables work?

just curious since the price is right, but if it won't work i'd rather save my money...I'm betting someone here has tried one of these or something similar to get the atv2 to work on an older SD tv...
thxs for any feedback!Smile

Sorry I don't believe that this will work Sad due to HDCP restrictions...
What you would require is something like a HD Fury...

I'm using a cheap Amazon HDMI to DVI cable (ATV1 with old Samsung LCD monitor).
It will work as long as your monitor/TV is HDCP compliant.
