Creative Lcd/tft Mod Suggestions
« on: September 26, 2005, 02:11:00 PM »

Hello all,
I have just found my way into the X-box modding arena.

I have a soft modded console with a 40 GB HD and runiing XBMC.

I have been soaking up all the hardware tutorials online but seem to be missing one.

I was thinking that it would be very cool to have  a small 5 inch LCD monitor mounted to the XBOX (Side, Top, Front) using a rca spiltter.
I would leave this unit running when I am playing music so I can see song tiltles, album art, cool milk drop Visualizations, load playlist and navigate between songs.
When I am ready to play games or watch a DVD, I would fire up my TV and have the option of tumring off the small screen or not.

here is a link to a 5 inch lcd

I know the Xbox 360 is on its way and was thinking this would be a cool way to breathe some life in th old console.

I would like to know who else sees this as an interesting project. And what would be the possible set backs eg, screen resolution and calibration.

The monitor above is costly compared to the price of a xbox today. Plus the fact that I am softmodding means I am too cheap to get a modchip.

So are there any other suggestion on how I could get an inexpensive small screen working on my xbox?

If this guy did the following I know its not impossible and I am not even thinking of intergarting it into the case!!
