dvd region x
« Reply #30 on: July 30, 2001, 08:04:00 AM »
i think I\'m really lost here! this is what i understood from this thread:

the US PS2 can play region 1 normally, but other regions it will play in green format. if you want to get rid of the green format you have to boot with a region-X disc and you also need a scart cable.

the scart cable from sony is missing some pins and will not let you get rid of green screen. best to buy a PSX scart cable.

hmm.. hope i got that right..
and another question, where do you get the region-X disc?
and what hapens if you use a region-X disc without a scart cable?

Thanx!

ok i ll tell you im in europe, so i can only usually watch a region 2 dvd, when you play any dvd normally, you get a green picture. please note that the cable you get with a ps2 is not a full scart lead, it only has 12 pins instead of 24. with the dvd region x i can watch every region, so that means i gat import films. plus the picture is not green when you use a full scart lead......ok......if you need to know more, write it up here and ill try to help

edit

all dvd play green with a full scart, if you use a dvd region x without a full scart the pic will be normal, any region. i got mine from a computer store, not a big one like eb, but a small one. u can also can get 1 of the internet but i dont know the site

Whoa!  Your EB\'s are big?  In Gerogia they are 20x40 tiny little stores shoved in malls.  EB is what I consider a "small computer store, that just happens to sell some console games too."

OK, I just got the Region X, and it works great!

I have a PAL PS2, and run it though a properly loaded SCART cable.

Usually when I try a movie, I get green screen, but using the Region X, gives me full colour vision, which has made me most happy. :)

I know everyone knows what the Region X does, but some people have had to use special codes, but I certainly didn\'t have to.

Now I can go for all those unrated US horroe movies!

:D
