I've Googled all day and I apparently don't know what to search for.
I want to "make" a simple (cheap!) LCD monitor for viewing a composite video signal. I'd like to take a real cheap 8" digital photo frame from Wal-mart and use the LCD in it and get the signal to output onto that. What I can't find any info on (because I don't know what to search for) is what electronics are involved in taking the video signal from the source and putting it onto the screen.
Before you go and suggest I buy a this or a that instead... I've looked, and I can't find anything that is a) minimum 800x600, b) minimum 7", c) has composite video in. I've found tons of examples that get 2 out of 3, but none that do all three that are under $100. Wal-mart's got this 8" 800x600 for only $25 but its only a photo frame.
Thoughts? Thanks.
