HDMI to
M1-A Result: - Incompatible
Formats, Try a Converter
Here we have a situation
where one device is analog and
the other digital. These
two formats are completely
imcompatible with one another,
although connecting the two is
not completely impossible. You
have two options when you run
into a situation like this.
You can replace the M1-A (P&D
Analog, EVC) device with another
that supports a digital format
such as HDMI, DVI-D, DVI-I, DFP,
or EVC (Preferably HDMI for
audio compatibility); or you can
use a signal converter.
The latter usually ending up
being more expensive and with a
lesser quality result. If
you choose to use a conversion
box you must select the right
one out of a choice of two.
If your source device is M1-A
(P&D Analog) and your display
device is HDMI you will need a
VGA to DVI Converter.
Should your source device
be HDMI and the display M1-A you
will need instead a DVI to VGA
Converter. For both of
these routes you will also need
a VGA to EVC cable and a
DVI-D to HDMI Cable. Be
aware, however, that EVC does
not carry the Audio signals that
HDMI would between HDMI devices
so you will need to find another
way to send the audio signals
depending on the types of audio
interfaces your devices are
using. We will not get
into that here. If you
need help with connecting the
audio, or the video, please

Below you'll find the
hardware and the cables you may
need and some adapters you may
find useful for your
application. Should you
