Screw the 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.

Screw the screen

Post by Harshboy »

can the screen speakers go die, and can i just wire the Audio cables right to the Speakers instead of through the screen? Is it possible?

the screen amplifies it so you can hear it. if you just go to the audio lines then it'll be very quiet, if hearable at all

you could goole it but those are more complex than you'd expect so here's some 1 watt amps
