Any issues with DMS3 & f/w 1.6c????

**tickford** · 09-20-2003,12:30 AM

I've noticed issues when u upgrade from f/w 1.3 to 1.6c.This is what I've noticed(tested on PAL ps2 with DMS3 v2.0):
1)NTSC PSX game boots in black & white,& not full screen,so no auto colour correction.
2)Dvd movies(back-up) boot in black & white,although its not a ntsc region movie,its local.
3)Dvd movies do not boot 100% in the ps2 mode,but still boot ok if the square button(dvd mode) is pressed on the controller on start-up.

I would like people thoughts & opinions on this,as I think leaving the f/w to 1.3 is probably more reliable.

well 1.6 is obviously in a beta stage, but most people have reported no or little problems with the 1.6 firmware...

i haven't heard of any other peoples having any toubles that you are having with the dvds.. although the psx and dvd b/w problems seem related, i'm sure that lot of psx issues that ppl ahve been having with 1.6 will be resolved in 1.7

Still being tested to work out any remaining issues. No one knows for sure.

My console is PAL and I tried some psx NTSC games on my ps2
picture on screen moved upward a bit, I can see only 2/3 of the picture. is it normal? or is there anything I can do about it?

I got the DMS3 chip today, and experiencing the same problems.
With my PAL PS2,
PSX NTSC games are playing in color, but can only see
85% of the screen, the rest is over the screen.
Games with screen configuration can lower it, but there are a lot of games which hasn't this option.
DVD NTSC Discs are playing in full-screen, but in b/w.
It's no option for changing the color format to PAL with DMS3.
Using DMS 1.6c

Downgrade to V1.3,then the psx games will load in colour & full-screen again

And just do the wire link to get colour correction on ntsc games(ps2),otherwise u need to hold R1 on controller on startup each time with V1.6c to force it into PAL colour
