I am using an older tv set that has hdmi and vga input. Iam using the vga and it has fine enough resolution.

This is a valid point. I don't think all vga to hdmi converters are created equally.
Also the svga output from the p3 at 1920x1080 doesn't work on any of my monitors so it would be interesting to know if that would be the case when it is converted.

Bill,

I did that (i.e. search on Amazon) and that is what motivated my question which was hopefully geared to narrow the selection down with good usage experience by others.
