Can I find only the 7" display adapter?

Tue Dec 27, 2016 5:35 pm

I am hacking a music player and planning to change the processor for a RPi, the old display is compatible with the 7" OFD but I will need another adapter I do not wan to leave my OFD without.

Version 1 or newer, I do not care.

Welcome, do not understand, the Raspberry Pi is a single board computer, not a Processor !

Please can you post a link to the screen you wish to use ?
Rather than negativity think outside the box !

Asus ChromeBox 3 Celeron is my other computer...

He wants to replace the works of his player with a Pi plus display-controller.

There have been several threads asking for controller board only, either because the screen has got broken, or they want to update from V1.0 to V1.1
As far as I know, the parts aren't available separately. But I don't know everything.
