A vast number of lcds use fairly common lvds interfaces. Boards like the one I bought are compatible with hundreds of screens, native resolutions and signal formats. You pick the resolution, voltage, and format by placing a file on a USB stick and flashing the board. You do have to look up the panel in question to make sure you get it right.
You also must deal with the back light. Mine was modern, so easy. Just a 12 volt led. If it's an old cold cathode, you need a separate high voltage driver. I'd let a screen like that go. You've got better things to do...
I glammed mine up by 3d printing a new little plate for the back to match my new board but that's not necessary.
- StavrosK 10y agoHuh, wow, that's fantastic news! No need to toss the whole TV if the motherboard dies, then (or, really, any other component except the panel itself). Where did you get the firmware from, by the way?
- BuuQu9hu 10y agoFirmware should be on the board before you buy it.
- noonespecial 10y agoIt still a bit of a walk on the Chinese wild side. This should help. https://sites.google.com/site/lcd4hobby/5-lcd-as-pc-hdmi-av-tv-multidisplay https://sites.google.com/site/lcd4hobby/5-lcd-as-pc-hdmi-av-...
