PSone Scree Backlight problem

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.

PSone Scree Backlight problem

Post by Hifeno » Thu May 06, 2010 8:44 am

Instead of started a new thread I decided to ask my new question here. I have a PSone screen that I had to bridge the fuse to get it to work but the backlight does not. Is there something that I can try to get it to work without led mod. It looks like the screen is on I can barley see the volume and brightness bars but sound play nicely. Any ideas.

zenith screen is identical to the psone screen. cap is probably for smoothing out the output power for a better pic.

Actually, I think the cap has something to do with the video becoming distorted when the volume is up past a certain point.

Likely the transformer windings shorted from shock/heat. Happens.

I led modded the screen. Now I get a distortion on the screen. The screen jumps sometimes or it just has continuous line in it. And the screen is not centered sometimes.
