Can this setup for an SDTV to work with the Xbox One?

Question

My idea is since I have an SDTV with no HDMI compatibility, I know that the Xbox One will not work for me... BUT I think I have an idea for how I could convert the HDMI to my AV tv.
The goal:
To convert an HDMI output to an AV RCA tv.

The idea:
1. Connect the HDMI out cable from the Xbox One to the HDMI input on the HDMI-to-AV converter.
2. Connect an AV-to-AV cable into the output on the converter.
3. Plug the RCA male (yellow white red) side into the three AV ports on my tv.

The question:
Will this work?

HDMI to tv (but instead of the tv it will connect to the AV converter)

And this RCA AV cable goes from the converter into the tv

Should work

Ryan · Answer

it could but you have to be careful with these "converters".  Hdmi is a digital signal and RCA is analog.  Completely different.  A quality converter box will run upwards of $100.  My recommendation to you would be to buy a new small TV on black Friday...it will save you a lot of time and possibly money.  Also you really want the higher resolution so you can truly enjoy the stunning visuals that next generation has to offer!

Assuming that converter actually works, yes, that should work...  However the results may not be very pleasing.
