 |
|
I have posted this on other forums as well and was finally told to try here.
I had a thought the other night while re-wiring a 2x16 serial LCD. Would it be possible to write a homebrew program that would be able to communicate with programs like LCDsmartie http://lcdsmartie.sourceforge.net/ through USB and then display the sent data on the PSP's screen.
Since I am not a programmer and have no experience I am wondering if a homebrew app like this is even possible.
Thanks |

| It might be possible via usb, but try to use the sio. Its a bit better, and you can make your own driver to do those things. |

It's very possible, and easy with the serial port.
You'll have no interface at the PSP end to emulate the 4/8 bit interface of the
Hitachi controller LCD screens, but serial LCDs would be easy to emulate.
