Hacking AV cable heads.

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.

Hacking AV cable heads.

Post by animefreak753 »

Hey! I have a PS1 screen but I need to put it in a N64 to make a N64 portable. Can anyone tell me how to switch the heads for the cables?

You don't have to switch the headers, just look at the top of the forum for PSone screen pinouts.

yes. the easiest way to connect it would be to solder wires to the pins on the mobo and solder the other end to either RCA jacks or to the screen pinout
