    No, since the car-LCDisplays only understand video-level signals, you have to connect it to the s-video output from your videocard and have a RCA-male on the other end, and plug it into the screen.. :thumb:

    and if you want to display system stats, you can use "samurize" and configure tha vid-card to use the lcd as a second monitor (extended) and put the "samurize" info on that screen

    as far as i know, the psone screen also have the same signals, since the psone, got videosignal output, and i don't think that sony wold bother to make a new video-standar just for a screen for the psone.. different connectors maby, but not more than that (atleast that is what i think)
