Hipscreen Hookup Explanation

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.

Hipscreen Hookup Explanation

Post by ShaolinDrunkard »

Hi guys, the hipscreen is pretty easy to hack. After you remove it from the controller, cut the wires coming from the plug in the lcd.

The wires are as follows:
Orange:+12v
Black:Ground
White:Left Audio
Red:Right Audio
Brown:AG?
Yellow:Video

You can cut a regular rca video/audio wire for each of the video and audio hookups. You may have noticed that rca cables have an inner and outer wire. For the video just hook up the middle wire, for the audio use the middle wire to hook up to the red and white hipscreen wires, and (the following is key) or the video will be scrambled, HOOK THE BROWN AG WIRE TO THE OUTER WIRE OF ONE OF THE AUDIO CABLES. I have no idea what this wire is or does, all i know is thats how it works.

Hope this info helps sombody out in building a portable.
