It may or may not be possible to inject the video signal directly into this
TV but a more serious problem you haven't addressed at all is that, if you
intend this to be a fancy rear view mirror, then the picture observed on
screen will be completely reversed to
that which you would expect to see. in other words without altering the scan
orientation it wont work. (Overtaking vehicles for instance will be on the
wrong side). It would be a lot easier to swap the scan with a CRT type
display, but modifying a LCD display in this way is potentially a much more
difficult problem. Sorry I can't be a bit more helpful but this may save you
a lot of time in the long run.

Good afternoon,

This message is being sent to two groups (rec.video,
sci.electronics.repair) in the hopes that I can find an answer

I building a remotely operated camera for the rear of my truck. It
is home-made with pan-tilt capabilities and some PICs to control the
RF transmitter and reciever.

Basically, I have everything done, except connecting the recieved
video to a small pocket LCD TV with no video inputs. This TV only has
an antenna input. I know an RF adaptor can be used, but I also know
that a standard composite RCA-type input can be directly wired to most
such circuit boards. I just saw one done the other day, where the two
camera outputs were directly soldered to the board, and the TV only
recieved the camera input. [I recall him saying something about an
existing S-video connection hidden somewhere on the board to which the
soldered the cable.]

I can't find a description of how to connect video to TVs anywhere
on the web, although I saw an instructional page a few years back,
that I can no longer find.


Does anyone know how to attach a video input directly to a portable
TV with no video inputs?

Thank you for any tips or leads!

Paul
