a ps2 will play burned DVD's (mine does) it sounds like you need dvd burning software that creates a menu and title page onto the dvd when you burn it. that is what your ps2 and dvd player are looking for when you first pop in the DVD. If all the disk has is a movie on it, the machine doesn't know where to start the movie.

a good program for creating dvd's is WinnDVD creator 2, it works great for me.

Nero 6 or 7 or Roxio Easy CD/DVD creator will also do reliable jobs.

:D thanks for your replys:D

I find if I burn them in PAL the PS2 will play them also check what brand of disk your using, I use imation and my dvd will accept them, but it wont accept tdk......;)

Just be aware that Australia, like the UK, uses PAL for it's TV and video systems while most of the world uses NTSC, except for France (and French Territories) they use SECAM.

So a PS2 made for the US would use NTSC while one made for the UK and Australia would use PAL.

Thanks Ukbob, I didn't know that......;)

I have dvd santa and you have the choice of PAL and NTSC, so if the kids want a movie I will burn in PAL so they can watch it on their PS2 and if its a movie for me I burn it in NTSC as the dvd player plays both.....

See Im still learning everyday and thats whats good about this forum.....

Again many thanks......:)

Yep local dvd players play both. I don't know about those in NTSC countries.

Hi LOTR, hows the weather down there...lol:D

You would think, lets say American players would play both as their supposed to be the most advanced country lol :D
