7 in LCD problem 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.

7 in LCD problem HELP!

Post by SgtSmackaho »

Im in the process of putting a 7 in LCD in my 360 case and got everything wired up and it works great EXCEPT the word "VIDEO" in the top right corner stays on... It doesnt come on till its been running for a min or two and wont go away :cry:
I know that my tv says "video" when it doesnt have a signal, so Im wondering if its a possible voltage issue.
The screen itself is from a Madcatz 7.0 and Im just using composite video (no RGB)
During testing the display worked great but now that its in a case the picture is shaky...
Any IDEAS?

The reason the picture is shaky is that the 360 is interfering with the video line.

Solution: Use metal shielding, tinfoil will work.
