    PS2 A/V pinout

    Does anyone know the pinout for the A/V connector on the back of the Playstation 2 consoles? I want to make a monitor cable for a spare LCD panel I have.

    Enjoy .

    Also they do make VGA converter boxes for this where you can adjust the contrast and brightness signals before they go into your monitor.

      I know Sony made a very simple cable for them.
      It came bundled with the PS2 Linux package.



      Unfortunately the package now costs an arm and a leg (and possibly your other leg)

        Oh wow that brings back memories.

        I forgot about that release I installed a Xenium mod chip and got Gentoox (a modified version of Gentoo) running on an Xbox once.

        That cable only worked when the PS2 booted into Linux it won't work when playing games unfortunately.

        Here is a guide to make what you are looking for:

        http://skygate.bravehost.com/PS2_VGA_cable.html

        It won't be a simple cut and solder job unless your monitor has sync on green.

        You will need an LM1881M and some caps if your monitor doesn't.

        The LM1881M is a sync separator that will output the sync signal your non SOG monitor needs.

          There are quite a few LCD panels out now that support Sync on Green. It is not much of a hassle for me.

              Speaking of that, If I can find the DVDs elsewhere I'm going to cross my finger and hope that giving it a different hard drive works no problems.
              I always hear people say that this and Final Fantasy XI only work on sony-branded drives.

                Excellent!
                Turns out that the spare AOC LM729 LCD panel I have is compatible with the PS2.
                I'll get to work on this and see what happens.

                  HannStar Hanns-G HC194d LCD monitor repair
                  by momaka
                  Normally, I never post repairs this quick after I do them, because… I am usually very slow. But today, I’m making an exception here. Why? No idea. Perhaps only because the repair details are still “fresh” in my head… which is ironic, given this is a 16 year old monitor that hardly anyone will care about today. It is new to me, though. I picked it up last November from someone on my local Craigslist. It wasn’t very close to where I live, but was close to a family friend that I had to go visit anyways. So after watching the posting on Craigslist for a few weeks and seeing it getting...

                  Hi Everyone

                  Lately I am experiencing the deja-vu incident on one of the led monitor like this.
                  https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...lashing-on-off

                  The monitor is HP 27es LED Monitor
                  https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Deskto...e/td-p/6804692

                  The monitor will randomly blackout and display no signal and will recover again.
                  Sometimes need to power and off again to restore the display but...

                  LG 23MP55HQ LED Monitor turns off after a few seconds or flickers.
                  by Rick_1234
                  Good evening, gentlemen.

                  I have a problem with my monitor. It turns off after a few seconds or flickers. Shining a flashlight on the screen doesn't show any image, so I guess it's not the "2 seconds to dark" I read in the forum.

                  To turn it back on, I have to press the power button twice. Then after a few seconds it turns off again or flickers. See video.

                  Wise Wing F199 19'' LCD monitor - recapped
                  by momaka
                  Looking through my repair pictures and notes, it's been a long time since I posted anything in the LCD monitors section. So here goes that.

                  I'm dedicating this thread to one of the very first LCD monitors I repaired (if not the first one), which was more than 10 years ago now. The monitor is a Wise Wing, model F199. It's a 19” CFL-backlit LCD. I got it for free off of Craigslist in 2009 from a guy, who said he bought it for cheap from Wallmart and the monitor worked only for a little less than 2 years before quitting.

                  When I saw the Craigslist post, I wasn't...
