freaky screen

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.

Make sure your battery is charged. I ran out of power and my green bars turned a little purple and started acting weird.

That same thing happens to me if i put a little too much power across the screen, or if i have the Signal and Ground leads to the composite input backwards.
