HDMI to RCA

I know Apple TV 2nd gen only comes with an HDMI output. Are there any adapter cables that convert HDMI to the older 3-RCA TV cable hookups?

You'll give up sound over HDMI, the link below shows one for component, I don't think you'd want to convert from HDMI to composite video.

It is possible. You will need to purchase a *HDMI to Composite/S-Video Scaler*. It is a box similar in size to the Apple TV. Do a search on Google using the search term "HDMI to Composite" and you will find info and vendors.

You are responding to a thread that is over 1.5 years old. I think the OP is long gone.
