Video on PS2

Post by Nordo »

I want to send a friend a video from my digital camcorder that he can play on his PS2.
I know I can't use VCD or SVCD. Is there any format I can use that the PS2 will recognise?
Thanks

DVD Video. Burn a DVD-R with your video authored in DVD-Video, and that's about it. Google around for dvd authoring softwares, there are a dozen of them.

You're too nice. Since this is a develolpment forum, you could have pointed to the webcvs copy of an mpeg video decompressor library, and confused the user, heh.

He could have also pointed him to PS2Reality and told him to use a low bitrate avi.

I know this is a development forum, but it was the only PS2 forum I could find that could answer a simple technical question.
Thanks Pixel. I thought that was the answer, but I was hoping there may have been a way to trick the PS2 into reading the disc.
Thanks guys -no not you Neil ;-)
