"Who watches DVDs anymore?"
Me, an intellectual: I watch DVDs
Will i actually dont watch but my girlfriend does!
The Enderman I watch dvd when I can’t find a certain movie on Netflix
@robloxboy1000 I watch both DVD and Blu-ray
I watch dvd I actually have a problem as I have more than 500 DVDs
so do i.
If you still had the original case, you could have made a Linux-based netbook!
+Nate Dude Or a portable gaming console / hardware emulator!
Woah! How'd you read my mind?! That's exactly what I was gonna do. I just need a RPi and a keyboard.
+Muranaman yea and the fact that it's using analog video input will make it look old-ish like the old consoles, not pixel-perfect emulator-like
Dar'o What do you mean by old-ish? I have a bunch of CRTs at my house I use VGA on all my monitors. I don't see a big difference between my laptop and my desktop's image quality.
@@ChrisD__ must not have a very good computer! (:
I love, love, love that you posted this!!!! I just bought a Vialta VF-100G Digital Picture Frame for $2 from a local second hand store. It has a 6.8" TFT LCD that uses the exact same Sharp IR3Y29B chip. You just made hacking it super easy, thanks.
Man you've grown so much 🙏 saw this video and the nostalgia hit. So happy for you.
Hey there, I am a huge fan of your videos! I just want to let you know that I used your raspberry pi game boy tutorials along with your other videos in order to build my brother a retropi game boy for Christmas. it turned out perfectly and I feel as though I've learned so much. Thank you so much for your videos, this is easily some of the best content on youtube.
This is one of the first videos that changed everything for me. I always love your videos and they give me ideas but this one takes the cake!
What kind of educational experience do you have if you don't mind me asking? I'm currently a third year computer engineering student and I find your videos fascinating.
+Tibaxz I did an interview with the Amphour recently. You can find the answer there.

I bought an old portable dvd player back in like 2013 to do exactly this... only problem is, i didn't know how. I'm just now getting back into tinkering and saw this.... this is fantastic!!!
Nice hack!
You helped me learn arduino
After i watch this video i found my old portable dvd. That was a sign. I took it apart but i found easier way to plug an external signal. The screen was connected by a 5 pin plug witch 2 pins was video signal and the other two was for TFT light power. I took of the screen and simply cut the wires, then do video and power plug and it works as a portable monitor. I do everything in my way but the idea was Yours ant thanks for that.
ironscull You're welcome
+Oli Siska *you're *awesome
What model is it? I try it too.
Chris D It was some Universum dvd i don't remember modell.
ironscull Oh. I have a Memorex MM-8500. I don't know that much about circuits, but I do know how to use a screwdriver, so I took it apart an found out what SoC it had and removed the DVD reader. I want to put the RPi Zero in the empty space and power it using what was for the DVD drive, but if I were to replace the battery - I think it's completely dead - and get an new charger - lost it so many years ago and turned it on with out the Pi, would it overload the PSU?
Love the video - the Goodmans GCE5006DVD uses the exact same circuit boards. I followed your wiring guide and spliced on a video input but kept the casing intact.
Very cool
See that ROM chip at 2:07 Would be a cool idea to desolder it and flash a hacked bootloader on it to make it run Linux from a DVD.
You just saved my day. Im building a portable ps2 slim and im using an old portable dvd player but i couldnt figure out how connect the screen.
Sweet !!! I have a few old portable DVD player I can pull the screens out of. Great to know it's that easy to hook up a video in to it.
This is just what I need. I have a portable DVD player with the excact same chip in it.
Thank you very much, now I can make some use of the display :)

"Who use dvds now "
😂 2020 - me 😂
same lol
Great video, love the ideas for retro tech. I'm looking to ad an LCD to the case of my ps4, ideally wired directly to the ps4 so the HDMI port is free for my primary tv. I even thought of adding a crt viewfinder instead, but thats a whole other level of geekery.
I used my dvd player to hack the Pentagon. :)
0x01 just put a Raspberry Pi into it and put Kali Linux on the SD card. Then just learn how to hack.
Simply Agent Agrimar please help someone hacked my tv. They changed the language so I could not enjoy tv dvd anymore!
@crafters2003YT tell me the data files on ufos
im using spaghetti to listen to aliens in space
I hacked my brother with a stick.
Over 3 years later and I would like to see you use it to make a portable RetroPie gaming machine. I know there are videos and guides all over the internet for it but I did like your take on the Gameboy RetroPie and would love to see what you would do for this project.
Also, awesome videos back then and still going strong! Hope to see videos of you for a long time!
sir your projects are easy and best for technicians even for beginners..
Thanks, this was exactly what i needed! Now to see if i can trace circuits...
Wow! You defiantly deserve more Subscribers (and views). Thank you for this wonderful video.
hope to video about reusing mobile screen in small project
+Astuces de Trente Secondes - Must Kunst
it's very good idea but I don't think anyone would do it
+Astuces de Trente Secondes - Must Kunst
so do it and upload the video , and the old mobile screen you can get it from anywhere it's not an issue
Omfg can't get enough of this channel
Many cheap portable DVD players have LCD screen with only video signal feed. Very simple to use it as monitor for composite signal. The resolution is mostly around 320x240 / 480x240 and not always 800x480.
800x480 is much better picture, but hard to find with only video input. There are less portable players for it. They might use RGB or digital video in (LVDS signal is used in high resolution LCD screens)
Guten tag... sagen Sie mal, do you think there's a chance that you can do that with a smartphone display?
Du brauchst nur den richtigen chip
Dann ist ganz einfach

Ok?
I found your channel just a couple of weeks ago when i found your ambilight clone projekt. I really like your videos, they are very well done!! And i'm looking forward to watch all of them. :)
Videos like this is awesome!! Thank you for your work!!!!
0:15 Me.... Fuck Netflix, Blueray disks, and Redbox.
I want my Blockbuster selling plain old DVDs back!
Me. With 2.8 Mbps internet Netflix is very buff. As in it buffers alot.
DVDs are great. On the go you usually don't have enough internet to stream content and only few Notebooks have BlueRay readers.
That was amazing to see you do that. Thank you for posting.
You make it look so easy, I def learned something. Here's a project I wanna see done... Take the screen from a MacBook Air and turn it into a slick portable monitor keeping the Aluminum chassis it is housed in.
See a screw, remove a screw... :D
Great Scott 2014
Nice reccomendation 6 years later RUclips! Where my 2020's at?
This is gave me a great idea to use a banana pi for a lcd I took out of a laptop we were throwing away. It'd make a cool signage device or portable player. Thanks for the idea GreatScott! !
How about the original speakers? Did you use them?
Thanks! This was precisely what I needed and I hadn't yet found a way to do it.
Fantastic, i found your channel while investigating ambilights for my RPi. looked through your other videos, found this and you have solved a problem ive had for sometime.i wanted to strip out a Mustek portable dvd and drop the RPi in the case, got stuck at the video inputs as i didnt want to use the socket the same as you lol!!. it has a different main board but the screen driver is exactly the same as yours, "Warm up the iron honey, we got solderin to do....."
My mom gave me a old one of these and she said it stopped working after it made a loud pop and smoke and I watched one of your videos the said “Before you throw away a TVs check the board” so I did and I saw one of the capacitor Popped and I fixed it and it work so thank you for your videos
Impeccable timing for me, I just started on the exact same project right when your video came out, but had no idea what I was doing. Found your video and now I have a clue! :D I've run into a snag however, I'll look again but the past few times I've looked I can really only find one major chip, the MT1389QE. I couldn't find a datasheet for that exact chip, but found one for MT1389 so I'm hoping it's the same. My problem is I can't find a "video_in" like you (lucky!), and am having a hard time figuring out what all the letters mean to try to find video in. I couldn't find a service manual for the dvd player (Philips PET7402), but found a service manual for other DVD players (Philips DVP4050 and DVP720SA) that use the MT1389QE to try to figure out which pin to use and I'm still lost. Any suggestions?
You definitly did some nice work hacking that dvd player!
Our old great scott
I was hoping to see you break into the firmware but repurposing the display is still nice.
I have a portable DVD player from 2006. (Element Electronics PDZ-081E). I bought it on eBay, and I listened to a CD. Also watched a movie or two on it. Yes it is compatible with CDs.
Can we use the video output signal from the setup box of tv to give video input to the display
Nice project Scotty.
WOW that easy to find monitor video-in !!! now I can continue opening old devices to discover :D thanks
Best channel ever!
Ich hab einen Universum DVD Player.. wenn ich das Video Signal eines C64DTV einspeise ist das Bild schwarz/weiß!! Weißt du woran das liegen könnte?
How about phone's screens?
I have a lot of dead phones, can I make something with the screens?
He was lucky here. Composite video is not widely used for interfacing SoC with built-in LCD so I don't think that you will find such implementation in any phone. I think in modern smartphones it is most likely that you will find LCD with RGB interface connected to SoC without any intermediate controller. RGB signal needs many wires and connector is very small so you would have to make custom breakout PCB for interfacing it to your project (I don't recommend because this will cost more than new LCD with the PCB).
Dumb phones sometimes uses LCDs with COG (controller-on-glass). Such controller may be unknown and even with proprietary protocol. So it may require reverse engineering. You could google, perhaps somebody already figured this out in case of your phone model. For example, it is known what protocol and controller is used in Nokia 5110, Nokia 3310... Protocol is well-documented and quite easy to use so these displays are useful.
Otherwise, I don't think it is worth spending time here, everything is so small in mobile phones. Perhaps you can try to fix these phones and reuse in other way.
if its not using a custom made lcd you can usually get a custom driver board and use it as a small monitor.
You're reading my mind!
I just yesterday remember that I have philips portable DVD laying around in my garage.
I love your videos you are obviously very very knowledgable in Electronics and computer electronics too.
I have no idea what you are talking about when you commentate ( not your English that is fantastic) but about the electronics ha ha ha .
I wish I did . Thank you. Baz
Hi Scott! Here is a suggestion, please show how we can use logic boards and power boards from a different monitor to fix a broken one! I've got a 25" monitor Hanns G, model HSG1064 which has a logic board and a power board that keep failing. The screen however works fine and the quality of the screen is pretty good. I've kept it in the hope that one day I would learn how to properly transplant a power board and a logic board to make use of the screen.
If you don't make a video about this but know of any resources or have some piece of advice please share it with me as a reply to this comment.
Thank you very much and keep up the amazing videos!
I tried this with another model but the same chip on the driver board but got a gameboy like screen (green background with black pixels).
Can somebody help me? Thanks in advance
How do you find the specifications for your chip? EDIT I found yours in the video easily, you just have to get lucky I guess.
Excellent Technical Video. Your Style is very Professional.
Nothing short of amazing, great vid!
Your videos are so helpful could you do a video of connecting the disk drive to the Arduino board or whatever board type that is through the pins so you can use disks drive
Totally like what you did!! Gives me an idea how to approach some of my video dilemmas. Thanks for posting.
I think im old fashioned that i still watch dvds
You have some great videos sir! keep em coming! giving me some of my own great ideas!
Scott,i have an tablet screen and i want to modify it to a monitor for all uses.
My problems are two,1:How do i get to know if my 9 inch screen is tft or lcd,2:which monitor control unit should i use
Hey man....so yeah i was searching online for a nice hack to my old 05 philips dvd player...this is great work man...your a genius that knows how to find the correct ic information and searching pathways...excellent work...you did all the hard work for me...i have a small request...can you make it work with fpv? Should be as simple as plugging in input at this point i belive...i really am consolidating as much resources ive had for ages to manufacture my own fpv rc all in one transmitter...you know them all in one transmitters can run 500 upwards to thousands for the agricultural ones🥴i just need one to boast🤣
Hi scott, your videos are just amazing how about Amazing Scott next time loll. I saw a few videos on doing a supercomputer with multiple raspberry pi 3b+ and i need your advise on it why not building one (maybe 4 or 5 pi) just to know what are the real benefits of doing that project. Is it worth the extra dollars? I would really appreciate but if u cant, maybe just give me some advices thanks
I was looking at using the camera from some old phones. NOT too old, say S3 or S4? I should have a Sony with a true 22 MP camera. My question is, Do these send composite signals or do you have to do some digital decoding? All hacks I find here are about removing the IR filter. Thats nice but a hi-rez camera made to fit my 4" telescope. Thanks for your time.
I am always disappointed to throw away perfectly good components. Consequently I look for things to build using some or most of them. I even try inventing things, some of those stories are very sad.
Excellent presentation. They cal me the "Doodeldog" because in early school I would insist on doodeling objects that could work instead of listening to the lesson. I was still a great student, My real name is Don. Cheers!
Very interesting videos, thank you for making them. I subscribe after the first video but found this one very interesting. I have an older portable dvd player like the one in your video, and I have a question about it. could a port be added even if I had to mount it outside of the case where a usb flashdrive could be used since it can hold several movies rather then packing several dvds for the kids to watch on road trips.
Why not getting rid of the other big board and use the Panel alone. When i looked in the datasheet, i saw RGB in. Could you put an VGA-Signal in? Maybe you could use the Display as a small extra Display. I also just kept the screes with boards from old DVD Players, but its really hard to find datasheets for the Driver ics so here you are very lucky you fine one.
Just found your channel Scott and i love it :D
timpos546 Awesome ;-)
Briliant.
Could this be done to a factory car nav/dvd player that didn't come with video inputs?
You are a true genius and are awesome you have shown me most of the things I now know about electronics I should have subscribed much longer you are just a GreatScott!
GreatScott! It just so happens that I have the (almost) exact same thing. The only differences are that it is under the brand name "yukai" and it has a black plastic cover on the bottom.
How did you power the back-light? Which wires and how many volts?
I have a few old GPS touchscreens for cars. I would like to see you do a video on using those as maybe a portable gaming device maybe make a portable Playstation or Xbox. Or turn a desktop into a portable machine giving you desktop power with laptop mobility. Also want to learn how to run my PC in my car
I have a problem in this project great scott ....I can't identify the chips as they are all connected to the same board.... Please help me .... Can I talk to you...????
You sir just won my appreciation
I was going to get a new screen for my Raspberry Pi but I've got a stack of old portable Dvd players I'll now try to re purpose thanks to this.
Michael Parker the resolution on those is bad.
I still watch vhs dvd and bluray. The greatest actor who every lived was humphrey bogart, and I have a large collection his films and also basil rathbone as sherlock holmes. No format is truly dead, just sleeping
Great video!
Can you teach us how to trace chips like you did?
just google the part number followed by datasheet, you will get all available info about the chip, and even info about other versions of the chip, sometimes you get a basic schematic for the more simple chips
The S-VIDEO port at the beginning might be just a custom-build non-standard 3.5mm connector of this standard en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-Video , which connector's shape looks like PS/2 mouse connector in it's normal size
im wanting to put my own video signal into one of these and I have taken it apart. now when I try to look up the chips, no exact matches are found for any of them. I feel like I know whats what, but im not sure. I also haven't been able to open the plastic case house the screen to remove it and the speakers. if you could provide any help that would be nice.
Was würdest du zum basteln eher empfehlen? Den Banana Pi oder den Raspberry Pi?
XperiaArts Ich würde momentan den Raspberry Pi empfehlen.
Plz make a video useing the LCD to another projects what else we can make by the lcd
As you know dvd players have small amplifier.. I want to run my (big) speakers but they lack volume and power.
So I wanna remove the DVD tray completely.. It uses a ribbon cable to a decoder board, can you tell me how to do this DIY project?
Can you just cut off the cable that connects the lcd driver board with the board with the ct908 and connect power directly to the driver board? Or is there anything important on the board?
Can't you get rid of the other board with the DVD playing IC now that you're just feeding the signal to the LCD IC board?
I save anything with a lcd or led screen. I must have 10 or so old portable dvd players. And about 40 plus digital picture frames.
Is it possible to do this the other way around? Make a video output on a tv? This would also be useful for smart tv's (netflix app) and ambilight..
+Great Scott! i used a different old player and i opened it and i cant find a video processing chip i searched all them and none were for video processing right now im just trying to cut wires one at a time wire to make the display blank and if they dont i solder it back in place HELP!!!!!!!!
Kom je uit Nederland want ik zag laden.. bij het opstarten van dvd player.
Hei Scott I have one but a different type how do I get the video pin and ground? Could you explain how you follow the video path to pin
I love Germans speaking English, it's epic! "Get to the shoppaaa" hahaha
Hey GreatScott Can You Hack An Old Xbox 360 and Add Some Cool New Features On I ???
That would be a pain in the ass.
bravo👏👏👏👏👏. What I was saying is an app you use can also be the details of the Sharp, for example video in
Will definitely be doing this ASAP.
This was way better than that other guy shit asking for help but labelling the video as what you can do with a tablet screen...
very kool stuff you do here :) if you dont mind taking suggestions i have an electronic project that i need some guidance on. i was trying to make a cosplay helmet that didnt have a visor and therefore had to use an external camera and a screen mounted inside the helmet is this possible with readily available parts? and if so could we maybe have a vid? many thanks to you for your time and have a great day :)
I have an LCD that was part of an old handheld console and I can't manage to find any schematics online, everything powers on still although it's all apart now. Is there anyway to tap the display signal through the ribbon cable or a way to know what the display chip is? The only chips I see that I can name are the CPU chip and rom chips aswell as one for noise. I don't know if there is a way to maybe buy a video controller which takes in the same pin ribbon cable and have that work. Any ideas ?
Hi what did you study to know how to do all this stuff?
Nice job!
One of the greatest thing about av is that it can be used as input/output.
But I have seen many laptops but they have hdmi output no input.
Awesome Video! I have got a Philips portable dvd player which I would like to mod in the same way. The problem is that I only see a video cable from the main board to the tft board which is labeled RGB (3 wires + ground). Is there a way to input composite video in that case? The main board is a "PET702 DVD BOARD".
