PS2 Question. (Performed first test, need advice)

[Gerry]

Ok, right now I have a NTSC-J PS2 and I was curious if I could play it on any TV or would I need some kind of adaptor to convert NTSC to PAL. Can anyone give any advice? (btw I already have a 2 prong power converter so I'm not worried about that)

Thanks in advance.

They should come with the standard AV cables (red/yellow/white plugs) right? Those should work on any TV.

You can only play it on NTSC 25 fps signal

PAL is 30 fps so playing the NTSC signal on it will ... actually i don't really know what it would look like to be honest, I only know what PAL looks like on NTSC but not vice versa.

If there is an adapter that will some how translate the signal, then run it through that. I've seen a DVD player that has the option to switch to PAL and NTSC, I don't know if it's inputs are supported but it might be. Let us know how it turns out.

Ok, thanks guys!

OK! Test #1: The conversion seems ok minus the fact that the video comes out in Black and white and has a grainy effect to it at times. Audio is superb though. Any advice?
