Movie Burning

[ultimatejester]

i wanna play my movies on my ps2 which i burn off my computer , but my friend told me dat i need some kind of chip to do dat because ps2 only plays dvds. is this true.

if you want to see it on ps2 (dvd) you need to burn it as VCD
it can take a lot more time than a regular burning...

& it's illegal ! ! ! (yeah right... who cares?)

by the way - i wanna talk with you on the PMs...

party on.

the keeper is wrong, and your friend right, vcds wont work on ps2, unless u get a region disk 4 it m8, u can get them, i think its called region x, and the region setting u want is 0.

[Schmiggy_JK23]

No you cant, you would need a mod chip.

[ultimatejester]

U can find lots of different mod chips just go to google and type "playstation 2 mod chip" in to the search I got mine @ www.modchipcanada.com. As far as i know vcd/svcd wont work on the ps 2 with just a mod chip (I read you can a dl a boot disc that will work but i cant find it).
This (http://www.broadq.com/) is new on the market but its supposed to work.

You can play cd-r/cd-rw, vcd/svcd and yes divx on the PS2, but it does require you have a mod chip in your playstation, however there are no solder mod chips you can get if you are worried about frying your system that just take swapping a cd when you boot it to make it load the chip. To play divx on your ps2 you have to burn a little program onto the burnt cd called PS2reality. There is a website for this program and it is free, but the website is in spanish. Sometimes babel can translate a decent portion on the site however. Just do a search on www.yahoo.com for ps2 reality, it will bring up a link for their website. However, at present the software is only in beta and some people report problems playing divx other than 5.0.0, 4.0.0, and 3.0.0 using it.
