PS2 DVD problems....
This is probably an old topic, but I am new to PS2. When I try to play DVDs on my PS2, th color fades in and out regardless of the movie that I play. The sound stays good the entire time, but the pic goes in and out. Sometimes the color fades all the way to the blue screen and back. I have the PS2 hooked up using the RCAs that it comes with, and I do not have any issues at all playing games. Is the DVD part of the PS2 defective?
Thanks!
Thanks!

You can't watch DVD movies through a VCR with any DVD player (unless its got Macrovision removed somehow) because of Macrovision. You will have to get a RF modulator and hook up the PS2 to that and then run it into your TV. I know Wal-Mart and Target both sell them now.
