Actual Hip GEar

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.

Can someone tell me the NORMAL ways of how a Hip Gear Screen works. Basically, how it gets power, and video when connected to a normal PS2/GC.

Well on the Intec screen there's 3 plugs on their own cords that connect to a central box-like doohickey which combines them into one cable. One has a regular DC power jack, one plugs into the regular video port on the console, and the last plugs into the controller port. I assume the Hip Gear works about the same way.

One plug goes into the wall, One to the video and the other is the controller plug.

So to Integrate this onto the MK plug and play, connect MK video with Hip Gear Video via doohickey box, power and technically i'm done.
