Greatings to Afterdawn.com and members, as am newly in this field of burning and copying movies and games, i have a questions and who has the knowledge kindly advise. Is it possible to download a movie or copy DVD to my PC then burn it by CD-R in any format possible where then i can play it in my PlayStation 2? I know it's quite strange question but i don't think technology can have a limit.
Of course your PS2 must be modchipped or it will NEVER accept non original software. I never tried using it ths way (I have a DVD player), bu why don't you try burning a VideoCD? If is simple, inexpensive (simply, you'll need a CD for each 70' of movie). I suggest TMPGenc (very very good piece of software) to prepare the correct MPEG (PAL/NTSC) from your starting movie (.AVI, .MPG) and, then, VCDeasy to build the image of the VideoCD / Burning it directly (only if your computer accepts CDRDAO: otherwise use 'cd image recorder' as VCDEasy recorder and, then, Nero, CDRWin, Alcohol 120% atc. to burn the resulting BIN/CUE). Got it? _ _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Read forum rules! http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2487[/small]
Thank you for you reply, My PS2 in modchipped so i don't think i will have problems but i have tried to make VCS by nero to play it with my PS2 but didnt play, i dont know why, but cause am not expert in this field so i dont know which format it should be the movie and ...ect I will try to get the softwares you recommended and i will give it a shot if it worked i will write my comment for the afterdawn.com memebers if not i will seek more for answer here?
To the best of my knowledge, PS2 will only play backups made to a DVD(+\-)R(W). I tried playing a SVCD, VCD but no luck.
shoey is correct the ps2 can not play vcd or svcd but you can get it to play xvid and dvix by using ps2 reality player also your ps2 does not need to be modded to play dvd movie backups _X_X_X_X_X_[small]cd loader for the v7+ ps2 http://www.geocities.com/jayteemaster2003/ cd loader for v1-6 ps2 http://www.tidusx.cjb.net/ using swapmagic got problem game check out http://www.swapmagicfix.com/ http://www.modchip.com/ps2/ps2id.htm idetify your ps2 version[/small]
i have tried all possible ways all day long and couldn't do it, so i believe what shoey and devilhunt and what aldaco12 said i have tried it but didnt work, so the answer is PS2 cant play VCD only DVD
