PSP to HDMI, all with one giant converter box
by Nilay Patel Oct 15th 2009 @ 4:29PM
Props to Lenkeng for dressing up their otherwise anonymous VGA-to-HDMI converter box with a PSP-related angle -- the LKV8000 comes with the necessary cables to take your PSP-2000 or above's 480p video output and push out a 720p HDMI signal complete with stereo audio. Not a bad idea -- except that we can't think of an HDTV that lacks either component or VGA jacks and that doesn't have a built-in scaler to do the same job. Maybe you're just out of ports? In any event, this guy needs a Stateside distributor before we can tell you pricing or availability, so you're stuck swapping cables for a while, Sparky.

VGA is a 15-pin connection, this is using a 9-pin connection. So it is NOT a simple VGA to HDMI conversion, this is doing something else, using a proprietary interface. Just because its a D-sub connection does not make it VGA guys!

Actually the signal content pass to the 'VGA Interface' is Component Video and L/R Audio of PSP, the input resolution is 480p. The input interface of the converter box LKV8000
is made into a shape of VGA interface.

PSP -> computer monitor with digital connection? Unless you have a higher-end monitor (Samsung 245T, Dell U2410, HP2475 etc...) then you have neither component inputs nor a good scaler.
