My brother was asking me if i had a laptop monitor from a machine that didnt work, if I could set it up for him in his car so his kids could watch a DVD on it. Has anyone attempted this? sending a video signal only to a laptop display to use it as a TV/DVD?
I thought it would be cheaper just to buy a $400 secondhand laptop with a DVDRom, make a mount and hang it from the roof of the van and just download something to rotate the image upside down.
Or.... is there some kind of extention cable for laptop monitors, so the laptop hdd could be under a seat, and the display on the back of the seat.
