ndn3master Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I have a portable dvd player but I want to play gamecube on it what do i need to connect my gamecube to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megakiller32 Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I think if thats even possible, you attach the three coloured wires from your gameboy into the port in the dvd player, if it will fit. :XD: Also, youll need to plug your gamecube into a power switch. If you understood anything of what i said, congratulations, because it seems hard to understand :shock: Quit Runescape 30th May 2006.Thanks to Hawkxs for my signature :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ape Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 I'm unsure if you can. Does it have a Scart or a red, white, or yellow socket in the back of it? -Mitch New sig to come! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy500fan Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 This probably belongs in Tech and Computers. Anyways, what kind of inputs does your portable DVD player have? Mine didn't have any, and if yours is the same way you won't be able to use it. Not to mention you have to somehow power the Gamecube, which will be difficult to work out.

deloriagod Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 If it has the connection slots for the A/V jacks, just plug them in there and it should work. If not, you'll possibly need an adapter or it might not even be possible. Internet Marketing For Newbies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tripsis Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 This would be better suited in Tech & Computers.

crimsonking Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 There are special screens you can buy and attach to your gamecube to play in vehicles and stuff. Its doubtful you can use it with a portable DVD player though. ~^v^~Ex-Leader of the Divine Flames of Redemption~^v^~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercifull Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 what dvd player do you have so that we can see what jacks and inputs/outputs it has?

BlueLancer Posted January 20, 2007 Share Posted January 20, 2007 Moved to tech forum 8-) I'm not sure if I understood correctly, but this is a DVD player which is not plugged into anything, right? It may be impossible, because if you go on a vacation and just bring the portable DVD player and your GC, the GC has no power input.. Aa.. Edit- tripsis already commented, I left this reply open after moving it :oops: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndn3master Posted January 20, 2007 Author Share Posted January 20, 2007 I need it in the car, to play GC which can be powered by the car's cell phone charger place. I have a Digi Labs Portabale DVD Player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need the dvd player in my car when i go travel or something. Do the A/V ports say input or output on them? Most likely they are output, just like mine was. And most likely they aren't standard size, they are 1/8th inch jacks. The player probably came with a 1/8th in to regular size adapter cord.

indy500fan Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 It says AV in and it isn'nt the standard size. It says "A/V in"? Are you sure? Then you will need to find the cords that came with it, and go from there. If you have a digital camera, take a picture of the side/sides that have the ports on them so we can see.

Yea its A/V in and theres also a slot called A/V out too but it came with a wire to connect it to a tv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy500fan Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Are the A/V in jacks the same size as the A/V out? If so, the cord that goes from the A/V out should work for the A/V in jack also. The problem here is you will end up with the male A/V connectors, and to connect your Gamecube you will need the female. What you would need would be a cord with the female connector on both sides.

ndn3master Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 any idea where i would get this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Collective Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Since you have neglected to say anything about the AV-in port at all (other than that fact it exists) I doubt anyone is going to be able to tell you for sure where you can get a cable for it. Either go down to your local electronics store and ask someone there (take the player with you), or tell us what the port looks like (better yet, give a photo and/or the make+model of DVD player).

ndn3master Posted January 23, 2007 Author Share Posted January 23, 2007 Ill try to find a pic rite now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruiser Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Since people seem to be too busy bashing the kid for no picture, here's one from newegg. It's a standard 1/8th inch jack, like a headphone plug. You need an 1/8th to RCA (red/white/yellow) cable (picture, cable on the right). If your dvd players has the ports, it should have come with one. :? Doing a little digging around, you can find the same cable types for the Zune and iPod (although I don't know if they're compatible). Taking it into a place like radioshack or BestBuy (tho I doubt the BB drones will know) should give you better luck than the boards here. Printing off the picture of the cable would probably be helpful too. Newegg doesn't sell just the cables as far as I can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indy500fan Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Since people seem to be too busy bashing the kid for no picture, Anything to make it easier to figure the problem out, he should do. He is asking us for help, not the other way around. Also, I already said what you said: Do the A/V ports say input or output on them? Most likely they are output, just like mine was. And most likely they aren't standard size, they are 1/8th inch jacks. The player probably came with a 1/8th in to regular size adapter cord. Most likely his player came with those cords. What he will need will be a female-female A/V cord, which I don't know if they exist or not. Or he will have to buy an A/V to 1/8th inch cord, with the A/V part being female, and the 1/8th inch being male obviously. Either way, if that actually does work, power will still be a problem. I don't know anything about power cables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
