If you get a normal looking (except being green and black) picture, then a modified DVD player would work. If you get either all black or patches of green, it's probably the TTL input type.
So, are you saying that I could hook up my 1980s Lyceum to a component DVD player using the RBG inputs? Would I have to use the red, green, blue, AND enable inputs?

For giggles, here's the RGP portion to the back panel to the RCA Lyceum.
