    Playstation 2 with matrix infinity chip doesn't play Final Fantasy VII international

    You can use a program like ISOBuster to extract a Raw image of the disc. Then you can compare the hash values to the redump hash values here: http://redump.org/disc/8233/ The easiest would be to zip the file and compare CRC32 values. However the MD5 or SHA-1 hashes would be preferred. You can...

    (PS3) playing NTSC PS1 title on PAL TV through scart cable shows black and white

    If your TV supports RGB through SCART then you should just find the proper RGB SCART cable for whichever Playstation you are using. With RGB you don't have to worry about NTSC or PAL. Not to mention the picture quality is superior.

    Playstation 2 with matrix infinity chip doesn't play Final Fantasy VII international

    I missed that. It sounds like the disc itself could be scratched, defective, or failing. If it's just scratches it might be repairable as long as it's scratches on the data side of the side. Scratches on the label side of a disc are really bad news. I guess the upside is your console is...

    PS1/2 TOCPerfect - Modify Playstation 1 Games To Have Perfect Audio And Multi-Disc Game Swap Support When Using The Swap Trick

    Here is my program which had a different purpose but I added the TOCPerfect idea to it. It will make all the changes I mentioned in my previous post and it seems to work with Tomb Raider without any problems. The primary purpose of this program is what I call the 'Demo Swap'. It will patch many...

    Playstation 2 with matrix infinity chip doesn't play Final Fantasy VII international

    Final Fantasy VII International does not use Anti-Mod protection. http://redump.org/disc/8233/ The message you got is likely because the system is having trouble reading that specific disc, or reading CD-ROMs in general. Have you been able to play other CD-ROM games (PS1 or PS2) on this system...

    Neo Geo.......!

    You might want to use an emulator like Kawaks or Nebula or whatever one you can find that supports taking screenshots while also letting you toggle on/off individual sprites. You could rip the sprites from the C ROMs but you would have no palette to apply the correct colors and the...

    PS1/2 Phat PS2 with scratchy/staticy audio on startup.

    You might need to open it up. Before you do you might want to track down a service manual for the model you have. Often they have schematics so you could find out what capacitors are involved in audio output. That will make it a lot easier so you don't have to examine all the caps on the board...

    PS1/2 Phat PS2 with scratchy/staticy audio on startup.

    Did you verify the AV cable is good? I'm not sure I've heard of failing caps causing audio to become scratchy or have static noise. Usually failing caps leads to a volume reduction often to the point of no audio. Another thought, did you do a close inspection of the AV port on the console...

    MC2SIO - Load PS2 games from SD Memory Card!

    If there is enough demand I'm sure they will. Worst case they can be made at home. It's a very simple device hardware wise judging by the pcb and bill of materials I've seen.

    Ps2 won't play ps1 game

    I can't say that it will help, but have you tried unplugging and plugging the hdmi adapter after starting the PS1 game? It's worth a shot since it costs nothing. It might help it regain proper sync/vertical hold.

    Hacking PS1/2 How to hack a PS2 slim in 2022?

    I agree 100% with the first two steps. Step 3 is a good step as well but you could also use the MechaPwn exploit to enable playing Import and Backup discs. Just be aware that PS2 Backup discs require patching to be read by the console. I created a new patching program that fixes issues that...

    MC2SIO - Load PS2 games from SD Memory Card!

    I recall seeing a speed test results and while it is faster than USB it's still around 1.7MB/sec. That's still quite a bit slower than the optical drive which is around 3.6MB/sec for CD-ROM and 5.28MB/sec for DVD-ROM at maximum. But the results apparently offer smooth FMV playback compared to...

    PS1/2 TOCPerfect - Modify Playstation 1 Games To Have Perfect Audio And Multi-Disc Game Swap Support When Using The Swap Trick

    I tried implementing your idea myself by hand using Rockman X3. It worked out well. I think the way I did it would also work for Tomb Raider as well. I'll have to give it a try and see if it is playable doing it the way I did for Rockman X3. If it works I'll share full details on it. I'm glad...
