can't play burned movies on a slim ps2?

is there something i need to do so my slim ps2 can play backup dvd movies?

I have been having same problem on my friends ps2, i would also like some feedback on this !

works fine for me, but i have a ps2 ....

maybe the pstwos dont work with it

I have a pstwo slim and burnt movies shrunk with dvd shrink and burnt with dvd decryptor on ritek dvd-r work perfect, the slims play them so its either a burning problem, media problem or laser problem.

hmm, i use BenQ CD burn at 32X and my pstwo can read it, it also read VIABrand DVD. maybe u burn the disc too fast.

Its a media thing, some will play and some wont, You just have to find out what works.

You can try ARMAX and use the dvd player on that, my friends slimline wouldnt work with my burnt movies so i just grabbed my armax, let me know if that works.

-Try making sure that the laser is going all the way back. my friends doesnt, but for some reason the armax i have gets it to work. but as soon as i reset it without the armax. boom the "insert game screen" a.k.a red screen of death

depends on what format you are trying to play them on
if its avi/svcd,then you can forget it,you need the ps2 dvix player for that,
downloadable from the net
other than that,ps2 play anything dvd,unless the ps2 is modded of course,in which case you need to put the ps2 in dvd mode,depending on which chip it is

I can never get my ps2 with armax to play any copied dvds or even divx.... I tried getting help via codejunkies forum but that closed down as they were getting too much abuse about the software being crap :D

But it plays "normal" dvd's no problem.

what does your armax cd look like? is it the new one that doesnt need a card in ?
