HD component to SD composite

[MarcMalkowski]

Does anyone know how to convert a HD component signal
(coming out of the loop-through of my Marshall LCD [HVX200 attached])
to a SD composite signal in order to transmit the signal wireless to
another monitor for me to check what the cameraguy is doing? ?

Why not just out of the RCA input on the side of the camera?

 

[MarcMalkowski]

The RCA output on the side does not send a signal when the component (D4) cable is plugged in... I need to get an image on my component Marshall screen and a RCA / S-Video screen at the same time.

Doesn't the LCD have a composite out?

Does the monitor have a loop through? most of them do. If not, then you might need a DA or something like that.

 

[MarcMalkowski]

It has a loop through but I doubt that it down-scales the HD signal... am I wrong?

 

[David Jimerson]

If it has SD composite out, it probably does. No harm in trying, in any case.

The monitors barly ever have "outputs" they are almost always simply loopthroughts of the appropriate inputs. So no, you almost centainly won't get composite out of a monitor if you put component in - expecially if it's HD component.

You are going to need an external downconverter.

That's what I thought anyways, but where do I get such a downconverter?!?
