7" portable dvd lcd no input

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.

Video out and video in on Dvd portables use the 3.5mm mini headphone jack for it's connection. Then you use a 3.5mm jack - to - rca.
