composite video to a Laptop LCD

Post by techni-formed »

was just fiddling with some old LCDs my brother had and am wondering if i could buy or build converter to plug in my N64's video cable to the LCD directly, like through the ribbon cable.

What about through connector with the wires instead of a ribbon cable? Cuz I just tried it with one of the older screens. The picture kinda showed but it looked really crappy.

For "Frank's" Sake. Or like Kyo did, I like that too.

I am intrigued how somebody seemingly got composite in to work on a laptop screen. Are there any model numbers on there? Manufacturer even, and a screen size?

well, you could just add your pictures to photobucket and send the link. But if you want to have pictures appear on benheck, I know that photobucket has image codes that you can copy and paste to show your pics
