psone screen issue.

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.

psone screen issue.

Post by jeffslot »

Hi guys,

I'm working on a portable again. I've got my psone screen hooked up to my video source (R,G,B) and Power. Now my picture looks what I'll call slightly scrambled, But I noticed that when I touch certain areas with my fingers (like the near the bottom 7805 and adjacent component) the screen de-scrambles & everything is AOK? How can I get the screen to stay this way? Thanks.

try resoldering or touching up the solder on componets your touching. sounds like a loose connection...

Well, the spot I'm touching I didn't solder anything to. Also I tried this on 2 different psone screens with the same results. Thanks.

you might be touching another piece of metal and shorting out some circuits, causing the scambling/descrambling when you are applying pressure to the screen.
