Roxio Game Capture: Using HDMI to 5 Component Converter?
I have a Roxio Game Capture, NOT HD PRO, and the output I need to connect from is an HDMI output which I can't do with the Rixio. So I need to convert HDMI to 5 component cables (The 2 for audio and 3 for HD Video). This will allow me to connect the output to the Roxio Game Capture.
My question is can I just have a cable, one end HDMI and the other Component and connect it or do I need an HDMI to Component converter?
Thanks in advance.

Yes, you need a converter -- NOT an adapter!
And even then the resulting video may not be very good. So only take this route if you're using a Xbox One or PS4 which only uses HDMI.
Otherwise if you're using a PS3 or Xbox 360, you can get the Component Cable (the 5 cables) kit for them, and use that instead of the HDMI cable. You will still get HD on your HDTV with this cable (up to 1080i)
