I would advice you to get an adapter https://www.amazon.com/composite-hdmi-converter-Electronics/s?ie=UTF8&page=1&rh=n:172282,k:composite%20to%20hdmi%20converter&tag=tomsguide_forum_vgl-20

You need an ACTIVE converter. Splicing is not going to do it. One is digital, the other - analog. I am an electronics enthusiast, I don't see it being done without a power adapter and PCB. In any case - why risk ruining cables over a $15-20 dollar item?

I was pretty sure it's a bad idea. Just in case, I checked the forum for similar inquiries. Guess what: http://www.tomsguide.com/answers/id-3556833/wire-hdmi-cable-rca-cable.html The guy even provided the same link LOL. Sorry bro, but you're out of luck here it seems ;-)

You want a powered one though. So don't just get the cheapest one that might not work. This here is a powered one. Please note that I haven't tested this if it works. Read reviews before you buy. Good luck https://www.amazon.com/Musou-Composite-Converter-Support-Chromecast/dp/B015H76TRI/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1538454327&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=hdmi+to+rca+converter&psc=1

You don't. Completely different cables. HDMI is digital, RCA is analog. Aside from the fact there is much more inside an HDMI wire than the 2 wires inside an RCA.

What are you trying to connect from and to?

Be sure to get the correct converter, there are two different ones. One with HDMI to RCA and the other from RCA to HDMI.

[censored]... I accidentally posted a MINI HDMI to RCA. Let's hope the guy figures it out. My bad. I totally apologize. Here's the proper link ( a bit cheaper though) https://www.amazon.ca/GANA-Composite-Converter-Adapter-Supporting/dp/B06X6HBQDH/ref=sr_1_4?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1538466270&sr=1-4&keywords=hdmi+to+rca+converter

Couldn´t see a MiniHDMI port in your link, did you edit it or maybe you saw the USB port?

It clearly says "Mini HDMI" on the page I posted initially. Look at it again. Well.. if you didn't see it either, I don't feel so bad anymore LOL. Unless of course what they really meant was "Musou Mini" - HDMI. But I suspect it's actually Mini HDMI. No, I didn't edit it, that would be rather redundant. Yes it has an older mini-USB port on the side for power, but that's not what I was referring to.
