Add a VGA (RGBHV) input to any projector, TV, or monitor that only accepts a component (YPbPr) signal!

The TC2000 converts a VGA (RGBHV) signal found on some source devices to a component (YPbPr) signal required by most TVs. Designed by a home theater enthusiast, it is regarded by many enthusiasts as the best RGB to component transcoder available (regardless of price). The fact that it's one of the least expensive ones available is an added bonus!

The TC2000 transcoder was developed to be flexible and to provide impeccable visual quality. It is one of the few transcoders that has a separate color conversion for different resolutions in order to provide optimum color fidelity. Although the required conversions are nearly identical, the difference cannot be ignored when optimum quality is pursued.

Works great with the HDfury!

Simply plug the HDfury directly into the TC2000's VGA IN port and you can now use Blu-ray/HD-DVD players or other HDMI devices with your TV that only has component inputs.

The TC2000 also has a cable driver stage which allows you to use an analog cable of any length together with the HDfury (you don't need to place the HDfury near your TV).  Perfect for those of you that already have a long RGBHV cable going to your TV.

Disclaimer: The HDfury is not supported nor has it been tested by the TC2000 manufacturer.

Reviews/Testimonials

"If you want to have an option that gives excellent image quality, less custom resolution problems, then the TC2000 is the way to go. The option of having a monitor hooked to a pass through is a great addition as well. At $139 I would consider the TC2000 to be a worth while long term investment. After using the TC2000 Transcoder for quite some time now I have officially converted to this product." - HTPCnews.com
