Hip Gear Questions

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.

Hip Gear Questions

Post by Frostbyte »

I was wondering on the PCB, which wire did the video go through and which one did the power go through. One is brown and the other yellow.
Thanks in advance.

Yellow Wire = Composite Video
Brown Wire = Video Ground

If you've got the Xbox version, on the grey ribbon cable that connects the LCD board to the adjust board, the red wire is power, and the grey wire immediately next to that is ground.

Ok, thanks. I'm not going to be using the control board but that could be helpful.
