What it does

The Boxwave converter turns legacy RCA composite video and stereo audio into a 720P or 1080P HDMI signal at 60 Hz. It is aimed at owners of VCRs, DVD players or classic consoles such as the N64, Wii or PS3 who want to connect them to a modern TV or monitor.

Sustained operation

An internal image-enhancement chip continuously optimises colour and detail while reducing noise and blur during long playback sessions. The unit requires a 5 V 1 A USB power source and takes roughly 10 seconds to initialise before delivering a stable picture.

Build and connections

The compact adapter ships with RCA and HDMI cables plus a Micro-USB power lead, so everything needed for a one-way RCA-to-HDMI link is in the box. The connector layout keeps the three composite plugs and the HDMI port on opposite ends for tidy cable routing behind a television or capture device.

Questions about this item

Does the converter get hot or draw much power when left on all day?

It runs from a 5 V 1 A micro-USB supply, so power draw is low and heat stays minimal during continuous use.

What must I already own to power the adapter?

You need a 5 V 1 A USB charger or port; the micro-USB cable is included but the power adapter is not.

Will it work with my old N64 and Wii without extra cables?

Yes, the box includes the RCA and HDMI cables, so those consoles connect directly and output at 720p or 1080p 60 Hz.
