Screen 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.

Screen help!

Post by MSDoom »

Alright, so I read that that majority of Portable DVD player screens wouldn't work after I destroyed mine (oops) and I was wondering if there's any way to salvage what I've got left ha ha. If so, i'd appreciate any help regarding how/what to solder where, and if not, feel free to tell me how much of an idiot i am.... o.O

wait
so have you fried your screen/control board? or have you just taken it apart and realised now that you cant use it for a screen so you want to put it back together again to use as a portable dvd player?
if its that latter option then just solder everything back to it's place, If its fried then you could salvage the battery, battery charger circuit, headphone/audio/video sockets, wires and plugs, hinges the list is endless depending on how much you want out of it
