Right...just to clear this little problem up with the "Green" picture on the DVD's...

This has been done by sony to prevent the copying of DVD's. The solution is NOT in the type of Scart lead you have...instead it is in the type of TV you have...most new TV's have 2 scart connections on the back...one RGB and one Non-RGB.

So by definition you do not need a Non-RGB scart lead as the TV Demodulates the picture for you.

Just plug your current Scart lead into the Non-RGB scart socket and your DVD's will look fine!

Hope this helps some people and possibly saves a few people some money!

Thanks for the info, its just a shame Sony put the Green Screen protection thing in the PS2. Hopefully someone will come up with a hardware/software solution soon for those with older Scart televisions!

I asked that question about 4 months ago. The answers are all posted in older topics. I`m guessing you`re new here. If so Hello! If I`m being stupid and just haven`t noticed you before, then sorry!
