Hi all, I am trying out some video editing software to compile some homevideos etc via firewire dv capture. I'm wondering whether to burn the finished product onto dvd or vcd (which ulead moviemaker will allow me to do) - but I'm not sure if either will play back on my PS2. I have the Blaze multiregion disc if that helps. Any assistance gratefully received.

The PS2 will play DVD-R's with ease. You dont even need it to be chipped. I have tried FWS 2nd Gen discs, Verbatim 2nd Gen and also Datasafe Branded 3rd Gen discs.

Obviously need to be chipped to play pirated games but not for dvd-authored home movies etc.

There is a way to reset the code, and it's in the PS2 manual.

I bought a PS2 used. I have tried to watch some DVD's on it but the parental limit code needs to be changed. I don't know the old code and I can not get a hold of the person that I bought it from. Any way that I can bypass or change this code?

The PS2 will not play Photo Cds, Video CDs, Super Video CDs or Rewriteables, Might play DVDRs though.
