DVD Player with Orange PI Zero LTS

 

I had a Orange Pi Zero LTS laying around that I've always wanted to do something fun with. So, I hopped ebay.com and looked up portable DVD players that were cheap. I found one that was only $10 that that had a good working screen and a battery. 

 

 

Once it arrived I began opening it and removing the internal DVD parts to replace it with the Orange Pi Zero. 

 

After looking up the AV outputs for the Orange Pi Zero LTS I began soldering wires to the board and verified everything worked. 

 

 

I then downloaded and installed https://www.retrorangepi.org/ onto a microSD card. (I installed version 4.1 as 4.2 did not work correctly at first.) After booting it up I was super pleased to see the performance of the Orange Pi Zero LTS running PS1 games and N64 games. Ran them at 30 fps and it looked beautiful on my DVD players screen.
