I am wondering if it is possible to change the screan size so that the picture doesn\'t look stretched?

heh good point. I thought it really didn\'t matter what size tv you had. I guess the ps2 is for widescrean tv\'s only.

In the options screen you can change the picture format to either 4:3 or 16:9 (widescreen).

Unicron! you can\'t change the volume while it is using the optical out. Go in and change the sound output and then you\'ll be able to use the volume

I recommend setting the outline sharpening to -2 in dvd menu.  It default setting is 0 but I realize setting it to -2 make the picture less ringing and more natural.  I compare -2, 0, and +2.  I realize +2 make the picture too grainy and too much sharpness and making it too fake.  At 0, it reduce but there is still over wash.  At -2, the picture seem to be just right and a bit softer.

I don\'t know.  Has anybody tried the outline sharpening before?

Outline sharpening at level +2 definitely jacks up the sharpness of the picture.I prefer -2 also.
