Wiring an LCD Module.

Sorry if this has nothing to do with what your trying to ask but i need some help...
Could anyone tell me how to wire up an LCD module (from a portable dvd player or something) to anything with a s-video output (red white and yellow leads) and still power it?
It is for those spy cams you see.
Thanks a lot.
Chris.

You can find LCD displays for car DVD/video games for around $50, surplus. I've got two hooked up to my security cameras so I can be in different rooms. Don't know about the s-video, mine are basic video-out from a VCR.

You probably can't? - there's almost certainly no composite input to it, and there may well be no RGB inputs either, it may be driven directly.

LCD_RSPIN = PORTB.2
LCD_ENPIN = PORTB.3
LCD_INTERFACE = 4
LCD_LINES = 2
LCD_TYPE = 0

Delayms 150

Main:

    Print At 1,1, "Hello World"

    While 1=1                                ' Loop for ever
