Input S-Video to your PAL psone screen (Images Fixed)

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

Kyo - I didn't get the "buy it now" listings from e-bay as they always seem about £37 (inc postage). There are hundreds on e-bay at the moment at this price. £37 isn't a bad price really.

I bought one a while back for £26 inc postage on auction; recently one for £24 inc postage (guy marked item as used and not new, it was clearly new, so less bids). I recently won one "it doesn't boot" for £7 inc postage - not got it yet: I figured I night be able to do "the fix" and see if that works (cheap system), or hopefully the screen is in good condition and therefore will provide a spare in the future when one of the florescent tubes goes in the future. Can't remember price of others I paid for were, about £26 each inc postage though. Sometimes they come up on auction and you can get a good deal; it pays to ask the seller about the screen quality before bidding of course.

I don't need any more screens now!

37 pounds? that's like... 52€

well I'm afraid they're more expensive and rare in germany. I might be buying one from your ebay, if the shipping is cheap enough.

Oh well, thanks for the info!

PAL systems + PAL screen = Works.
NSTC systems + NSTC screen = Works.

Any 220uf capacitor rated for at least 10v will work.

Hello,

one question concerning the grounds. Usually s-video has one Y-ground and one C-ground. Where do I find them? Or do you use the composite ground for Y- and C-ground?

Best regards,
Azrael

They are all the same ground, so, yes, you can connect Y-ground and C-ground to composite ground.
