Psone Screen Headphone Jack

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.

you don't need it if you don't want a headphone jack. You can just solder headphone right, left and switch together to make the sound work again. Now, if you want one on the other hand, it's a standard part you should be able to find it on mouser or digikey.

I don't think it is a standard part at all. On the Zenith screen it has a 6 wire connector that goes to one headphone jack and then another 6 wire plug that goes to a second headphone jack. And it is set up to turn off the speakers when a headphone is plugged in. I don't think hooking up a standard headphone jack will do that ?

Almost all headphone jacks have an internal switch. When the switch makes contact with another pin, the amp detects this and turns off speaker output.
