dv camcorder lcd screen help

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.

Post by pk1802 »

Hi,
I was wondering how to get componenet(sp?) video-in to a lcd screen from a dv camcorder. Here are the pictures.

Is there any other video signals that I can connect to this screen.

These screens are made to accept only digital input, generated by the DV camcorder. It's not possible to display analog composite input, unless you're Kevin Horton.

Thanks for your help. I will look into the digital to analog converters. Sorry for not putting 56k warnings in the subject line.
