This whole thing is going over my head, but I'm not too into modding and packing. I live in the U.S. and really wanted to get Bollywood Singstar for my family so I got both the game and the PS from the UK (both via ebay.co.uk) and had it shipped to me. I already have a fairly nice 29" sony Wega PAL Multisystem TV. It's a pretty nice TV, but it would be nicer to play this on the bigger 52" widescreen Sony Bravia HDTV. we have in the living room (which is NTSC of course).
Another thing is that the flickering of playing this pal system on my TV in PAL drives me crazy. Is that how PAL is? Or do I have some settings off?
you might want to check into modding you ps2 another thing is that all ps2's will play any game from any region the video mode is determined by the game not the system try googling free mcboot
^^ Well, I'm really not handy w/ modding which is why I went through the trouble to buy a UK PS2 and then buy the UK PAL bollywood singstar. Plus the fact that I had a multi-system TV handy that played PAL games.
I dont know if its just me, but if I have the component cables,(the ones with the green and blue, right) then this should play in color on my hdtv? Because when I hook up with that I get a mode not accepted or something similar to that anyway. I can get the black and white, with the regular red, white and yellow cable. Am I using the wrong cable?
When you say black n white i assume you mean picture,the PS2 doesn't put out an HD signal since i don't have an HDTV it suggests to me your attaching the cable to the wrong ports on the tv,as i get the same issue if i attempt to use RCA's on my tv graphic card then the picture i get is black n white,whereas if i use the s-video cable it will come out in colour on the crt tv,the reason being is the RCA's don't split the color signal thru all 3 wires like what happens with an hd signal,instead colour in the ps2 is handled by the yellow one it's a lower signal output,so attaching the original PS2 cable to an HD port won't work it needs to go to a normal RCA port,yellow,red,white,however as i said i don't have a newer tv,but i have used my xbox1 on a friends hd lcd tv & it worked fine but i can't remember if the female ports on the lcd were colour coded or not
I dont know. I uas just wondering. I have an hd component cable for my wiips2 and xbox. So there are 5 rca cables, blue and green for sure and I think yellow and red and white. I have no problems with it for non pal games just not the pal games. If I plug just the cable that comes with the ps2 the the pal games work, but just show up as black and white picture. Like I said I was just wondering somewhat out loud about this, since the first post said he got color, with an HDTV. No biggie game palys the same just not as colorful.
