can LCD on ipod video 5g/5.5g be turned off?

<< < (2/2)

soap:
I asked in IRC and was corrected.  The X5 and H300 LCDs do power off when the backlight is off.
I was told we do not know how to turn off the Video's LCD, and since it is plenty readable without backlight there is little point in saving a few minutes of runtime by powering it off.

saratoga:
I think someone managed to cut power to it via the pcf chip.  If anyone is interested, take a look at the power savings patch in the tracker last January.  I believe theres some discussion in there.
