PLEASE HELP!!!


What do do when...

The screen keeps on kicking out on certain movies when I try 2 connect the Playstation 2 to my VCR.

Certain movies come on, but some the resolution is probably 2 high 4 the VCR...what DO do???

Is the S Video cable supposed 2 do something?

I feel real stoopid but...i hav 2 sak how u did it!?


Im Broken, Lonely, N Cryin here!!!

it's the copy-protection circuit on the VCR. try one of the RF modulators instead...

Yep. You're gonna have to find some other way to connect your Playstation to the TV -- NOT thru the VCR.

(sigh) I ran into this problem when I bought my wife a DVD player for her birthday. To make things worse, I had one of those TV/VCR combo units, and all of the input jacks went through the built-in VCR. Hence, there was no way around the problem, and so I wound up buying a new TV. That was an expensive birthday. Oh well, we moved up from a 20" TV to a 27" TV, and I sold the TV/VCR for $100 (still only 1/5 of what I paid for it back in 1995).

Actually, there are devices that will remove copy protection. I think they're sold as "picture enhancers"--some folks claim that copy protection harms the picture, even when you've got everything hooked up the right way. But it seems to be something of a "nudge nudge wink wink" thing--I think most people who buy these things are doing it either to avoid the original poster's problem or make illegal copies.

ill b lookin 4 those! Picture Enchancers
