I bought this to use my iMac 27" with mini DV port as a display for a first generation XBox 360 (as part of a ridiculous daisy chain of converters and cables). It works well, and is cheaper than some of its competitors. However, as using an iMac as an external display for a separate input may be one of the use cases people looking to buy this are interested in, I would like to make clear that iMacs only accept digital video input at 720p or their native resolution. You will not get 1080p with this, or any other converter, unless it upsamples the 1080p video to the native 2560x1440 resolution (for the 27"). I have not found any reasonably priced HDMI to DV converter that does this. This is an issue with the iMac's supported resolutions and not this device's fault, but you should be aware of it.Most of the consumer Reviews tell that the "StarTech.com HDMI2DP HDMI or DVI to DisplayPort Active Converter" are high quality item.
