Jensen tv and Sony Blue-Ray

Question

I have a 19 in. Jensen tv, model JE1907. I am attempting to replace the existing DVD player, and replacing it with a Sony Blu-Ray player. The problem is that the TV has RCA jacks, while the player has an HDMI port. I bought a cable with HDMI on one end, and video and audio RCA connectors on the other, which are inserted in the Component jacks on the tv. I am not getting any signal. Could it be because the Sony player is set at 1080 resolution, and not compatible with the tv? Any suggestions?  Thx.

Your component inputs on your TV are analog, whereas your Sony Bluray HDMI signal is digital. A cable alone cannot convert the signal. You need a conversion box such as this E-More® HDMI to 1080P Component Video
.

BTW, make sure your Jensen has Component inputs? If only composite, yellow video and red/white audio, then you need a box such as this instead Portta 10HC HDMI to 3RCA Composite AV.

Gentlemen, thanks for your insight. I wish I had known this earlier, before I purchased the HDMI to Component cable. I will need to go with the box suggested by 1492.
