DVD monitors?

[Falco]

I haven't found much about them on here, but will DVD player screens work?

Example: http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_206 ... lack-.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

This is just a screen, no built in disk player, and it has RCA input. However, I've been told that screens like these depend on a control board like an actual DVD player, and would need all the components in working order for it to be used as a display. Is this true, or can I use it as a direct display like a gaming screen?

for the screen to work you will need the motherboard

If it has rca inputs and is just a regular flip down screen it will work fine.

That's what I'm expecting, that it will work hasslefree, but I'm also afraid of what Designer noob said, that it will require the motherboard or depend on the car's systems.

No flipdown screens like that one are meant to be used with an external video source. So a game system or dvd player etc will plug into it and work just fine.

That's very good. Thanks for clarification.
