Hi, i would like to know if i can fix the picture quality while playing ps2 games in my samsung lcd tv? i have got a ntsc ps2 console with a ntsc ps2 game but the problem seems to come when i play in my lcd tv. the colour seems to get dull, esp the colours like red and blue,they seems to get pale and the picture quality too. but when i play the same game in a normal tv (no lcd or flat screen) they seem to be ok. so i would appreciate any help regarding how to fix the problem. thanks in advance.

I think you should try other modes too like pal and others or in many tvs there is a option auto so the tv automatically select the best mode of color itself.....

I connect my ps2 to my lg 32 inch lv3730.It is a full hd 1080p tv. Yet,the graphic quality is very very bad.Even bad than a 15 year old tv.I played it on both lg and very old samsung but the very old...

The problem is your PS2 only outputs 480 resolution video and doesn't upconvert to 1080p. It's going to look awful on 1080p television. Your output and your display have to match in order to achieve quality video results. It will look fine on a 480 resolution set like your old TV's because that's what it was designed for. If you want a better looking game experience on your 1080p TV, upgrade to a PS3.

Poor quality picture with old game consoles (XBOX and Gamecube) Looks like I'm playing drunk

Thats technology at its finest. Even with component cables the picture will look horrible.

But, if you are using standard AV cables, try upgrading to component. You may try switching your tv mode to 4x3 instead of 16x9

Ps2 hookup to lcd tv

If your sanyo has a video input (yellow) available, and audio inputs available (white and red) then you just need to connect them. Then you need to select the proper input on the TV set. These may be on the back, side, or front of the TV.

Good Luck, and let me know how it worked out!

PS2 Picture Problem

Hi MG86,

Most PS2 games are dark and auto brightness controls will casue your LCD tv to brighten up automatically in response the dark video coming from PS2 games. I suggest you get into the menu settings of your TV and find a setting that will shut off the auto picture controls.

Samsung LCD tv and PS3

the problem is with the frames per second that the ps3 is putting out. i wound up calling both samsung and sony and the problem was in the settings. the ps3 allows you the option of playing in 24hz and for some reason if the option isn't turned off our tvs won't display frames at that rate. just go to the dvd settings and deselect the 24hz option, changing it from AUTO to OFF... the only problem i have with this is that this should effect the picture quality, becasue if it isn't displaying in 24hz that means it is downscaling the display and if it isn't upscaled by the tv's processor, then the display should be worse. i might be imagining it, but it does seem worse.. atleast they play now though. hope i helped.

Bad picture

All you can do is use the PSOne/PS2 'smoothing' options under the PS3's settings. Just remember that the games were designed for standard definition televisions so your Hi-Def set will really show their ugliness!

Flickering tv screen when playing playstation games.

I don't think it's a configuration problem at all. I do think that the set is not adjusting to the correct format. Most Stores have 30 day return policy. If it's over 30 days then they may not take it back. If you bought it online, then, the return may be difficult. If the return is not possible, then, contact Toshiba online and find a local Toshiba authorized servicer in your area. Hope this helps.
