0:23 actually, you can use it to run games up to 1080p but you'll need freemcboot and GSM. Since the hdmi adapter is basically a pass through for component it basically works with hdmi like it would there
576i < 480p You want to avoid interlaced signals as much as possible, not only they are blurrier but your TV will de-interlace the signal, introducing a high amount of display lag.
Thank you so much! Some guy said in the reviews you don't need the little wire so I was wondering why it wasn't working but it works great now, I haven't tested any games on it yet hopefully it looks alright but my brothers going to be so pleased 🥰

Thank you for this in depth review! I'm currently waiting for my adapter for my Japanese PS2, and knowing what to expect with the changes in quality is very helpful.
It is not fair to compare your HDMI converter with AV cable (RBG signal), since your HDMI converter is actually using the YPbPr signal. A fair comparison would be comparing your HDMI converter to a component cable which also uses the YPbPr signal.
@@jnkn3497 Anything above 720 is HD. Component is better than RGB (composite). Component can do 480p, while RGB can only do 480i. There is a huge difference in picture quality, as component looks sharp and crisp. To explain this further, Gran Turismo 4 is one of the two PS2 games to output picture quality at 1080i. To get 1080i you need a 1080 native resolution TV (duh!) and a component cable (YPbPr). You gotta be careful and research these adapters and upscalers, as some of them only do 480i and not 480p. Do not settle for RGB.
@@medalgearsalad1419 thank you very much for the information. I bought an hdmi converter and the picture was super fuzzy some games look better than others. I ended up getting a 24”Zenith to play my ps2 on. To me it looks better on the old tv and I still have my converter if I need it.
Hi eweryone. You must have a memory card with FreeMCBoot. And you have to install GSM program in it. Then you can adjust the OPL interface resolution from the settings menu of the program called OPL (openloader). As it allows different resolutions for each game. You have to choose the resolution for each game separately. You will have to go to the game settings menu, open the GSM tab from here, and select different resolution values for each game (which looks best for you or what the game supports). Don't forget to log out by saving the settings. I hope I was able to help. Have fun.
I’ve bought multiple converters and none of them work . But I’m buying one online the same one that you were reviewing, I hope it works just as good as this on my ps2
@Tech James hello, i got everything set up for my ps2 but all im missing is the “usb port” but i dont know how to get one. i keep searching “usb port” but it keeps showing me type c.
It's a good cheap solution. Downsides are that it's not compatible with ps1 games along with certain other games. Also the open beats rage games won't run either and I'm pretty sure dvd movie playback won't either. The pound branded hdmi adapter does allow for full compatibility. But you pay a hell of a lot more for it.
I have a similar adapter. Had to cut off some of the cable casing to allow it to sit without any force next to my optical out cable on my PS2 slim. I have the power lead connected but I do not know what it does because I notice no difference if the usb power lead is connected or not
Oh yeah, I noticed the difference! I just ordered a PS2 and I got a PS2 to HDMI converter (I'm pretty sure it was this one) and I wanted to see a video about how it will work and I am very excited for it now. Thank you so much for the video! Update: Actually, it's a different one but it looks like it's removed that long cord so that should be good.

Hey tech, I just got this and it works pretty good. But I really got it to see if it would help ps1 games look better. But mine doesn't work with ps1 games on my ps2. Do you have the same issue?
Wow.... A nice solution. But I have a little question. For PS2/PS1, what is better ? A PS3 with Backward Compatibility (Via HDMI), or this original PS2 with HDMI Adapter in the vid.? Sorry for my Bad English...
I asked on Reddit before and they said that the backward compatible PS3 is not reliable at all. I had one too and it got the YLOD. I think the PS5 will be fully backwards compatible with PS1 to PS4. So that will be awesome.
For ps1 - it looks perfect on both ps2 and ps3 For ps2 - it looks smoother on ps3, but can look laggy and bland. Also most games aren't compatible fully Ps2 looks alot better once you get over the sharpness Also your English is perfect
It does make the games slightly better looking. I had bought the PS2, along with Smackdown here comes the pain....I played it without the HDMI first and it looked so blurry and the subtitles were hard to read. I went ahead and bought the HDMI, and the game looked so much clearer and HD. It's good stuff.
HI James, I just purchased a PS2 to HDMI device that looks identical to the one in your review, although this one came boxed and not just in a packet. I didn't need to use the USB power cable on my slim SCPH 90004. I did try the adapter within and without the cable, but it didn't seem to make any difference to the display or quality, it just works.

@@mahkimahkila6396 You'd need to get an upscaler which are more expensive. I think they were around £150 last time I looked. You might be happy with the adapter in this video as it looks OK and as they're only a few pounds on eBay it's probably worth giving it a try.
ElfLord YT Most probably not. HDMI ports on laptop are mostly only for Output, meaning if you plug your laptop in to your TV the laptop display will show on the TV. Unless you have a super amazing laptop with a seperate HDMI output port, I think you’re out of luck mate :/
I got one of these for my ps2 slim and I plugged it in without it the usb power cord first without knowing and funny enough it looks exactly the same whether it’s plugged in the usb or not. What’s up with that ? It does looks better than the yellow cable but powered it not it looks the same.
thanks so much I was watching video after video that did not really go into much detail depth about how to do this but this video really helped, I was looking at plugging in my ps2 that used to belong to my mom's friend, but he let me take it when my siblings and I were helping him throw away stuff in his basement since he was moving in with his girlfriend and I want to see if the ps2 still works, I also have his ps3 that works too.
I’m gonna buy a PS2 off eBay soon since they’re so cheap. Does it really matter if I go with the Slim or the OG? I assume they do the same things but I wanted the Slim just for desk space purposes
The og fat does have better potential to soft mod. You can put a hard drive on those. With the ps2 slim you're stuck with playing games through the USB port or from a burned disc. You Could also stream them from pc over the local network. But I would choose a fat over a slim all day long
What I did is I bought a cheap HDMI av audio and video amplifier . It plays in 720 and up to basic HD and had 4 HDMI ports , 2 av ports the regular ps2 connection , line in connections to add other equipment . Thinking mine costed about $4 plus cost of speakers .
correction it actually had a coaxial cable input jack not the two av jacks so I added a vcr and just connected to vcr through the line 1 or line 2 channel on the vcr . There are 2 av connections on the vcr that's what I meant .
HELP! Is there a model/s that don't work with this? Have a 30001 and it doesn't work, every other output works YPBPR, AV, S video but this adapter will not work on that especific console. Have other 2 of this adapters none work on this one PS2. Have another 2 PS2 other fat and other slim both work perfectly with all adapters so may be the console? Thanks for any support, cheers!
Guys , there is trick for PS3 ,those who have PS3 console with bad HDMI port or faulty hdmi ,can use this ps2 to hdmi adapter on PS3 ,it work as component d terminal and output 1080 resolution through av port with help of PS2 to hdmi device
Please can you or some one in the godly comments section hel Me. It works for me untill I use opl to load ps1 games, the logo appears when i load the game but then i get a no signal from my tv. I then unplugged my ps2 to hdmi conector and used the old lead rgb and the game comes on the tv loaded and playing. Please how can I fix this so I dont have to switch leads. Many many thanks, i carnt find a fix for this ANY were?
I spoke to the guy who sold me it and figured out the problem. You need to go into your PS2 settings, and change the video from RGB to Ypbcr. If you don't have an older TV you can connect it to to change the settings without hdmi, I'm sure you could look up a video of the settings so you can change it blind.

correction it actually had a coaxial cable input jack not the two av jacks so I added a vcr and just connected to vcr through the line 1 or line 2 channel on the vcr . There are 2 av connections on the vcr that's what I meant .
How about DVD movie or PS1 games?
HELP! Is there a model/s that don't work with this? Have a 30001 and it doesn't work, every other output works YPBPR, AV, S video but this adapter will not work on that especific console. Have other 2 of this adapters none work on this one PS2. Have another 2 PS2 other fat and other slim both work perfectly with all adapters so may be the console? Thanks for any support, cheers!
Guys , there is trick for PS3 ,those who have PS3 console with bad HDMI port or faulty hdmi ,can use this ps2 to hdmi adapter on PS3 ,it work as component d terminal and output 1080 resolution through av port with help of PS2 to hdmi device
I'm a tech moron so even after watching this i am confused as the ps2 is not connected to the tv by anything. How does that work??
Connected the wires like in the video, powered my PS2 and no signal

I then unplugged my ps2 to hdmi conector and used the old lead rgb and the game comes on the tv loaded and playing. Please how can I fix this so I dont have to switch leads. Many many thanks, i carnt find a fix for this ANY were?
My resolution of my ps2 slim in our 1080 tv is kinda blurry. Does this fix my problem? Like make it sharp??
@TerranStriker thank u! I was going to buy it but yeah lol
I bought it. I have done all of these but it is still not working. The TV says no signal 😑
Did you get it working? Mines doing the same. The seller said that it doesn't work with all Samsung TVs, but mine isn't Samsung.
I spoke to the guy who sold me it and figured out the problem. You need to go into your PS2 settings, and change the video from RGB to Ypbcr. If you don't have an older TV you can connect it to to change the settings without hdmi, I'm sure you could look up a video of the settings so you can change it blind.
@@Jake-nl3er thanks. It worked.
Hola buenas, tengo el adaptador HDMI para mi ps2 slim, pero tengo tambien la play 2 Fat y al usar el adaptador de la slim no me la reconoce la televisión, es posible que para cada videoconsola tenga que utilizar un adaptador diferente? gracias
