Stereth, thanks for the tip about the a/v port. That worked, I just wanted to make sure I was still getting good connections from the PSOne. Once I get some more clips (stinking ones I got from Radio Shack last night are two big), I'll be able to hook up the S-video/RGB stuff.

Well I had taken off the header connector on the PSOne before, and put in a 6 pin header so I could just use a CD-Rom Audio wire to connect to a header I had put on the the Hipgear screen, so I know the composite from the PSOne should still work. I suppose there is the possibility that somehow I ...

Er, just to clarify, I HAVE cracked open the LCD and PsOne, and I'm directly connecting the pins on each device. I can get audio correctly, and the +5V pin which tells the LCD whether it should be on or off, but no video.

Thanks.

Ok, I've had to abandon the HipGear Screens, and I'm trying out a PSOne LCD (the fact that it shares the same voltage as the PSOne is a big plus). So I'm hooking it up, and for some reason I can't get any video signal. Anyone know which video signal (NTSC, SVideo, RGB) uses by default? I tried NTSC ...

You can get the hipgear screen to run off of 7.5v, you just have to take out the backlight and voltage increaser for it. After doing that, you will need a light source, such as white leds. I've been able to make both the screen and ps1 run together off of 6xAA batteries, but not just 5 (which would ...

Not bad prices, but they both appear to be backordered.

The PS1 LCD runs around $75 and up, from what I've seen. You can try using the HipGear LCD/controller; it's a smaller screen though, only 2.6". I picked it up at Fry's for about $50, and there's a $20 rebate apparently (I just need to send it in)

The HipGear LCD initially wants 12V, however, I was ...

I picked up the HipGear lcd/controller for the PS2 at Fry's for around $50, and supposedly it's got a $20 dollar rebate. It's only a 2.6" screen, but it's got speakers, as well as all the brightness/contrast/volume controls built into it.


A question though, what is the power supply on the Sony LCD ...
