:? psone screen confusion

Can I ask why? If you connected video and video ground behind the plug, why wouldn't it work?

Composite video can only be inputted over the mini jack. RGB can only be inputted over the sony a/v jack.

But why can't you skip the jack, and go right to its wires?

you can wire the composite to pin 1 of slot 2, though. Just be sure to ground it and do that one mod that allows you to use the screen without the PSOne itself.
