Lines on New 3.5" Display

Post by lukeches » Sun Jul 24, 2016 6:04 pm

I recently received the display for my Game Boy Zero (This One). To test It, I plugged in an old VCR player and it looked great! :D Image
Decided to do a quick test with the Pi Zero and some 24 AWG wire and I got these weird static scanning/moving lines across the screen. :oops: Image
Was wondering If this was just because it wasn't a great connection (No soldering) or It was some sort of bigger issue :?
Thanks! (First post! :mrgreen: )

Update! I attached the two wires from the pi to the connecter on the cable for the display (One on the inside one on the outside) and the lines are gone! :shock: Is it possible that there is some sort of filter in the cable that connects to the display that is getting rid of the noise/lines?
