hacking Xbox screen?

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.

1. Lurk on GamesX for the pinouts for the Xbox and Gamecube video connectors.

2. Match some stuff up.

3. ????

4. PROFIT!

I have used this screen my self!

http://georgesuprenant.com/Portable.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I have found that as it ages the picture is getting worse.
the quality was never really there anyway but good luck!

Especialy if you find it less than $20, I would not mind
having a few more.

Check with a multimeter if you're getting power.
