There's no picture dude. Anyway, you would have to find the input in the cable or traces that go to the screen from the dvd portion. if you find those you just figure out which ones R G and B and connect accordingly

Video output and video input are not interchangeable.

There's a good chance that LCD uses a digital signal from the DVD player's logic board to produce a picture, which is completely useless for hooking a game console up to.

Hate to say it but unless you can find a point to inject a video signal on the DVD player's logic board (which is doubtful because extraneous analog/digital converters cost money), you can't use that screen.
