WD TV Live, but no HDMI

    I am thinking about getting a WD TV Live, as it looks like it will play all the formats I have stored on my home server. The problem is that I haven't made the jump into the 21st Century yet and my trusty old CRT TV doesn't have any HDMI capability.

    How will/could I connect the two?

    the wdtv live will work off the red white yellow cable (RCA connecter) one of these comes with it when you buy them. http://store.stereoadvantage.com/product.php?productid=319

    if your tv has the connections to take those it will work straight outta the box, otherwise get an RCA to Scart connector like this http://images.bidorbuy.co.za/user_images/255/466255_120216202050_scart2.jpg

    Just remember no HDMI cable comes with these so when you do upgrade you will need to buy one.

    Got it - VERY impressed so far. It's having some trouble with some AVIs I created with Sony Vegas, but I'm not worried about that. Time will tell if it's as good as the first impressions.
