Great video. PS2 is becoming very popular again in 2022.
Fr
because games become trash or pay2Win m Bullshit
Just like NR 2003
That’s where all the good games are
I dug out my Star Wars games, man it takes u back to being a kid 🥹
Wow I didn't know there were so many PS2 to HDMI solutions! Good reviews and cool video Wicked!👍
Perfect, i'm creating a game room and can't use some of my older consoles, so was looking for this, also saw your WII converter to hdmi and bought one straight away.
The “PS2 To HDMI” still is a winner!
How can I find that brand
@@PromdeeezY I don’t know exactly which country you live , but if Amazon or EBay supports your country then you can order it from they official websites , or you can buy it from your local GameStop stores
I think buying online is the best option because I looked in all the stores in my area and can't find it
I just watched ur video now and it was wat av been looking for bro..... thanks champ
Thanks for this video. I have seen a lot of these reviewed by other youtubers but I trust your opinion the most.
Absolutely great video and the ps2s in the beginning are so gorgeous that light blue one is mint
Thank you for the info! The cheap one is underrated and I love it!
Thank you so much for this review, this video is exactly what I was looking for. It took me only one purchase to get a great converter for a dreamcast but I didn't have such luck with the ps2 but now i know what I should get. Thanks a bunch!
Great video it does help making a decision atleast I don't have to stress myself about which one to get I've been hunting a good output this should help
4:40 ive had that thing for years. Its so good. its also cheap as hell
Very comprehensive and helpful, made my purchase according to this video.
As far as I know there is a LOT of "PS2 to HDMI Dongle" clones/knock-offs, it would be helpful to know a trusted brand or seller
I saw one on ebay and I think it's the right one because of the reviews but idk for certain
Did you ever find a reputable seller on Amazon or similar marketplace?
Great video. PS2 is becoming very popular again in 2023.
Watched this video on an HDTV and based on the captured footage from the console - that black PS2 TO HDMI adapter certainly looks best to me
The image is sharp enough, the resolution is pretty good, the picture doesn't come through as muddy or blurry as the other converters, and the colors seem fine as well, though obviously it's hard to judge how accurate they are to what the games are actually supposed to look like
Obviously nothing will beat the more professional solutions like OSSC or Framemeister or other similar devices that cost hundreds of dollars but these do look good as a more budget limited investment into having a decent PS2 output on a non crt screen
THANKS!!!
This video was just what i was looking for ...and THANK GOD I GOT THE RIGHT ONE!!! ...just put the order in today before i even seen this video!!
Hope it looks good as what i saw in your video!!.....
Your video was filled with AWESOME Info needed!!
Which one did you get
@@GunGai I got the >> LEVELHIKE
Thank you very much for giving me some advice. I guess I’m planning on streaming PlayStation two games and future from a PlayStation two console. Thanks mush appreciated
Hey man I love your content & I’ve got the PS2 HDMI adapter on the way now I don’t know how good the quality will be on the two that I have ordered but I guess I should let you know.
I’m having trouble figuring out which one of the Mc boot items I should order
Smooth drifts in the first clip 👌
thanks for testing and share with us
I like the pound option.
Great video! Wish you can make a comparison but using the GSM homebrew scaler or the GSM built in OPL, in combination with these hdmi solutions.
From my experience this is the best way to play PS2. I use GSM with component cables and a Portta component to HDMI adapter for a totally interference free experience :)
The bitfunx one works with GSM, 1080i, 720p, 480p resolutions fine. Some Ps2toHDMI has variations wich not work for progressive resolutuions and GSM. Funny thing, my bitfunx has not the green tint shown in the video... very strange...
Thank you!
utilised and enjoyed wNice tutoriallst increasing in value.
i’m about to grab a ps2 this tomorrow and i got some games on the way!
Commenting again, a little bit later in the video actually just get my opinion in here but I actually like the look of an imperfect HDI picture, I actually like it to be a little bit soft because not only I think it hides the sharp edges of pixels, but it gives it like a little bit of a retro look. I plan on streaming PS2 games in future with a PS2 console for the experience and I think a perfect image makes it seem artificial like it’s being emulated on a PC and I don’t want that I want an imperfect image for the authentic experience
I think why a lot of people got the Pound cable is because it supported PS1 and the settings they used were the ones that would support ps1 on ps2 so its not as sharp as it could be because they chose to be able to support PS1 functionality. That is where some the the expense comes from I think.
They went with across the board pricing on their converters
I prefer the Hyperkin cable
You are correct, the Adapters which support the PS1 convert the RGB Signal but Adapters which convert a YPBPR Signal have way better image quality on the PS2. The PS1 doesn't support YPBPR, only RGB and RGB has bad image quality.
_Congratulations for the content - Many years ago and the first channel on youtube that I see a comparison between 5 different adapters with - an image - of a static game - that is, without speed - In this we managed to - extract all the potential - and the maximum of information - I am very grateful for taking the time to acquire all these products - and to show us in practice how they all work - I use the Ps2 for HDMI - but I still want - to buy a Bitfunx - But my reality still doesn't allow it - This video of yours is a gem of knowledge - and clarifications - A big hug to all - Your content is wonderful ( Sorry - I use Google translator )_

Thanks!
The pound is great if you combine it with either the mclassic or mcable. I actually opted for this combo over my retrotink cus my mclassic doesn't play well with it, constant screen Flicker no matter what when combined. The retrotink I still use for my ps1.
super große danke das war super hilfreich
Heyaaa! Thanks For The Amazing Video!!! Just A Quick Question... Any Fixes On The High Pitch Sound When Using OBS? Been Having This Issues With Most Adapters I Buy Online (Currently Using Your Bitfunx Option) ~Thanks In Advance
Thanks bro!👍👍 I've been trying to improve the graphics I use PlayStation2 and the Dell monitor but the av2hdmi from Best buy is horrible cant even play NFS crash into everything..😅 definitely gonna try the ps2 to hdmi👌
Some results from my own testing: (Slim, Pal ps2, 42" HDTV, )
1- Component cable direct to TV, I used this setup for a while and games that support 480p (eg. Outrun) looks ok, unfortunatley only a small amount of games in PS2 library support 480p
2- Cheap PS2 to HDMI solution (you listed this as your prefered solution) - slightly better than above, however this is really just passing the ps2 component output through HDMI
3- LevelHike PS2 cable- My prefered solution, takes the RGB (scart) signal and upscales to 720p, 60hz. A good solution for non-480p games, unfortunately with games that do have 480p support, you can't enable it , but they still look good and better than above solutions.
The cable was budget friendly, ( around 30 Dollars) and imo outside of the crazy expensive retrotink solutions, the best solution for my setup.
Just use GSM to output most of the games at 480p
Thanks for review
Anything special about these retrotink soutions? I have a ps2 slim I just found in storage and I'm just looking for what would look best on an LG c2 oled
I also opted for the LevelHike but to use for my ps1. Looks way better and crisp on my tv since i was using av cables. Should also look better on the ps2.
Hi what is the name of the adapter you are using
Great video man. Wish I had watched it before buying a piece of crap adapter!
It's all very confusing. I like what I see at 5:30 but the reviews are mixed. It seems to not work on some tv's, and for others it works for a few days or a few weeks then the screen turns green. I had to repurchase a ps2 to play my old games and assumed the "slim" was more modern and had hdmi output. For $8 it's worth the risk and many said it's the same or better than one's that cost $30 and up. Your video proves this.
Idk if you've mentioned this before and ik this vid a year old but what do you use to capture footage and how's it setup? Do you have two monitors or just use an HDMI switcher?
Thanks very much for this video :) can the PS2 to HDMI handle PS1 games on the PS2 ?
Hello, great video, will any of these solve my PS 2 issue with a game in a dark background scene? Like playing games that are in dark tunnels or at night which you cannot see anything at all. I had no issues on my old plasma tv. I have a 75 inch LG Led tv, not sure if that matters and did put into game mode for the picture with no difference. Your thoughts, many thanks.😊
I have both a 39001 fat and a 77001 slim but mainly looking for one for my 39001. The only issue I have is when it comes to PS1 games working. I have the composite cable and a 13 inch CRT TV but I really prefer a somewhat bigger screen so looking to get something for my HDTV. I need to keep games in 4.3 and be able to play PS1 games on it which I think could be an issue with 240i resolution.
I could just get a converter thing for compostie to HDMI since I have the composite but that's just taking the worst signal and blowing it up on a larger screen with no deinterlacing or whatever.
Component I tired before and was good image though the cheap cable was not. My current TV doesn't have Component slots so maybe could get a component cable to HDMI adapter and a component cable. I think I still have the old component cable but it's a cheap made and makes a loud buzzing sound on the TV speaker audio.
I also have an mClassic which would be cool to use for removing jagged edges but I think it only works on 720p outputs. I do have a backwards compatible PS3 CECHA01 model but I just want to play on original hardware again. Wish I had a good size CRT TV but no room for one right now.
Ive purchased a old flat tv, but a very old one, with scart, Chinch, S-Video, HDMI and component ports, then ive bought a normal scart cabel for my ps2, and the picture looks absolutely good, better then on a original crt tv in my opinion. But youll need a old flat tv, with the old ports.
Bought the ps2 to hdmi and I hope it clears up the blurry gameplay I have experienced on my 65 inch 4K tv
On "My Life in Gaming" channel PS2 to HDMI has two different model, the supperior model is support 240p signal so it works for PS1 too.
Yup, I have two of those I ordered from different sellers, both work fine on PS1 and PS2.
I'm using the kaico+ the mclassic it's very noticble difference I'm going to try the retrotink 2x mini pro and pair it with other devices to see what image quality I get so far the mclassic + retrotink 2x mini for n64 gets amazing results and the carby for gamecube is the best option 👍
Gracias por la comparativa.
Calidad-precio Ps2 to HDMI
12:30 the "phat" PS2 DOES have component support. Just wanted to get this out there, so people don't get confused
My Solution I have one of the first models of the Sony Trinitron..I conect my PS2 there...thinkig in buying another TV of the same model they are really good.
Came here looking for HDMI solutions and left wanting to know what racing game that is with the yellow car. Looks really fun.
Need for speed >>>
PS2 to HDMI wins. Not to mention you get an audio output so I can run it into my studio monitors.
PS2 my all time console
Nice compare
Hello, does the size of the TV affect the picture quality or does the dongle need the USB power to improve the picture quality?
Thank you bro greeting from iraq
Hi great video. Question, I have the fat ps2 so in your opinion what’s the best hdmi for me ? Thank you
So with these do you need a PC at all ? Or do all of these work straight from the PS2 to a TV?
Using a PS2 Slim and LGC1 OLED TV - would like to get the best quality available.
What capture device do you use?
so do all these adapters upscale the signal or just output 480p?
I'm using the slim PS2, and I have the multicolored HD cords cause I have a HDTV and that's the first time playing my PlayStation 2 in HD.
Do you think TVs with upscaling chips like Sony's new TV's would upscale this to 4k?
Just got my big boy yesterday
I purchased the "PS2 to HDMI" about 3 years ago and it's been a phenomenal solution, but there are a few cons I'd like to mention. If you're using free mcboot to upscale the signal the highest this adapter will pass is 1080i. The PlayStation 2 is capable of passing 1080p, I do it on component cables no problem, but this dongle will not process 1080p. The other con is that the positioning of the USB port doesn't allow for you to stand the PlayStation 2 upright. I really wish they would have put it on the other side, when using this dongle you are forced to lay the PS2 flat. Other than that I'm completely satisfied with the product and I am not looking for any other Solutions because this thing just simply works, and in my opinion the picture is the best especially when it comes to the colors. I use mine on a 4K television and an older 1080p television and it always looks amazing.
So when you're playing PS2 on a large HDTV would you go with the PS2 to HDMI dongle or would you go with component cables?
@@Basilisk4119 well I use both. I use component cables when the TV has them available but most HDTVs do not have component inputs. When an HDMI cable is the only thing available I will use the PS2 to HDMI adapter.
@@mark5150ty 👍
@@mark5150ty hey, I use the ps2 to HDMI piece and for some reason for one specific game there is no video, the disc reads but after it is launched no video pops up, is this a problem with the TV not supporting it or is it the ps2 to HDMI piece?
@@coleanderson8035 well this could be a number of problems. If the game is of a different region than your TV it will not display. If it's a pal region then the game is displayed in 50 HZ and if you were playing on a TV that is 60 HZ it will not display. If you are using free mcboot you can Force the game display at a different resolution then it's original. The PS2 HDMI adapter will pass any signal except for 1080p, so it is not at fault.
In your opinion, which is the best? because call of duty 3 is extremely dark and there is no option to increase brightness within the game.
Ps2 Need for speed most wanted and Carbon oh man these graphics are amazing
What is the resolution of the TV you tested these on??
I don't see the blur as inherently bad, in fact the footage of the PS2 to HDMI looks very aliased. Sure it's the most raw clear image, but that also means pixellation up the ass in these low resolutions without a CRT. I think freemcboot can do upscale so it would be it interesting to compare
RetroTink 5X is my favorite
Does the cheap PS2 TO HDMI dongle support PS1 games played on PS2?
I got the ps2 to hdmi works good
I'm going to pair the black PS2 to HD adapter that plugs into the back of the PS2 with my mClassic. The converter should convert to either 480p or 720p, and then the mClassic should upscale that to 1080p. Can't wait to see what the results look like.
Let me know how it goes. I have an mClassic as well hooked up to my PS3.
@@poopikins it actually looks a lot better. I think a backwards compatible PS3 would be better, but I can’t shell out the $250 for one right now.
huge difference for something that is that small i have a jailbroken ps3 that can now run ps2 and yes i have outrun on it connected via hdmi to 4k hdr tv and not as good as it is on this video so yeah nice" litle thing gonna get one of those when i got the time
How about darkness issues? I can’t play games like TS2 or Burnout Revenge or Resident Evil Outbreaks videos are EXTREMELY DARK.
Thought they'd be all the same. I wanted one with a few inches of cable attached so the adapter can be moved around but not great quality. Is the fat PS2 39001 fully compatible with the PS2 to HDMI adapter?
Duuude!!! I just got my PS2 to HDMI today. What a fantastic product. I'm lucky to be having an ideal experience with it.
Oh and after reading many comments about the PS2toHDMI, it seems I'm the only one on earth able to also play PS1 games.
The box of the adaptor you bought was was blue and had something like the windows logo on it?
@Aimilios I know exactly what you mean. No, I didn't bought the "model G300" (the one that comes in that box). I bought one that came in a simple transparent plastic bag. The body/chassis is black plastic just like the one in this video. I've seen that many of these adapters have the audio jack made out of different materials and colors like metallic or black plastic, mine is yellow plastic (in case this helps you identify a particular version you are trying to find). I could list all the text that is in the sticker on the plastic bag if that helps you too somehow.
@@holgerwikingsen713 this would help me a lot, I'm just trying to find the best solution, thank you very much!

PlayStation 2 is the best gaming console until now, just imagine, there a lot of good games that you can play, good stories on different genres. What an awesome console, plus backward compatible and it can turn into dvd player
What capture card do you use in this video? I have Bitfunx upscaler, but the picture is awful and colours all are greeny, not so bright and delightful as in the video
To me, black ps2hdmi adapter is, unsurprisingly, best for PS2 while Bitfunx is rockin for PS1. Sadly, it is God-awful for PS2 with its washed colors and ghosting and visible scanlines. I actually doubted myself if this was RGB/YPbPr displayed or just plain composite like in the yellow dongle. My guess is, PS1 RGB at 240p looks better upscaled (or rather, can't be passed through HDMI at all without upscaling) while PS2 component at 480p/576i is still good as is so upscaling is redundant and bad for the picture. I'll need a way to make the two into a hodgepodge Y-adapter so I could plug HDMI into one for PS1 and into other for PS2.
I still have the slim one that I bought at Circuit City.
Thanks for the review, but I do have a question. What about lag using these type of devices? Is it as bad as other reviews say it is?
I have one of this devices and it's working fine
@@ristiristi I was curious about the lag. Coming from the FGC, there have been many solutions proposed over the years. From deinterlacing devices, to scalers, line doublers etc... and one of the main things we look for is a low latency solution. I had even purchased a few display lag measuring devices to see if it's within my threshold of tolerance. And was wondering if any of these devices have had their output measured with such devices.
Very helpful video. I have the ps2 slim,i buy an adaptor av2hdmi up scaler 1080p, but i buy a new tv ultra hd,and quality of the game is not clear. I waiting better quality after the adaptor. Do u suggest anything?
Oh wow, outrun looked shite on that yellow one lol. I actually quite like the green tinge on the bitfunx 🙄👍
Why don't you buy any YPbPr to HDMI adapter?
I'm trying to get a setup for my ps2 so I can record playthroughs. Problem is my component cable can't reach. So I figured if I could somehow make it capable of using hdmi cords I could use my 9 foot hdmi cables I use for my other consoles. But I dont know which one is best for what i'm trying to do.
Id like to know the PS2 to HDMI do you need to plug in a speaker on the dongle to get sound or the sound would still default through he TV?
Which one is best for ps2 slim?
What's the PS2 on the right with the pattern on the top? I've never seen one like that it's a fat PS2 but it kind of looks like a toploader?
Which P2 console version (fat, slim,square)best to buy ?
Ps2 to Hdmi is really good and cheap but god i wish they make revision on the design especially with the small usb power position or maybe make new one without power input
yes that would be so cool that they make a better updated version 😳
Yep, it can't be that difficult to redesign these dongles so they can sit flush with the PS2
Hallo good sir, will I be able to use any HD adapter for my ps2 slim, or will some not work, because it's a slim.
You still have to use component or composite cables to play PS1 CDs.
Does it fix the delays while playing? Especially guitar hero 2?
Red green blue ports makes it perfect. No way around it unfortunately, my 65 inch doesn't have the ports so yeah.
Then get the ps2 to hdmi because that is using the component signal
@@Weensx already have, the best thing to do, get the red green blue component to hdmi converter, buy ps2 rbg cord and it will come up clear is ever (my current setup after buying 2 hdmi converters, come to find out it just enables you to play on HD TV, not upgrading the graphics.
what about the cheap walmart av to hdmi adapter its from a company called AKMI and it says on walmart website rca to hdmi converter says it works with the ps2.
What game is that the one that was playing with the yellow car racing in the beginning of the video?
Will these work with an amplifier as long my amplifier is plugged into my TV via hdmi out or do these hdmi converters have to be plugged into the TV's hdmi?
This is a simple question. Why not still use your component cable, and use a component to HDMI adapter for the upscale? I believe that would be the best way to go, but you are limited to 480i output from the PS2, so no PS1 games.
Hello, the advantage of the dongle is that it captures the signal directly out of the console is therefore not affected by the quality of a cable, analogy as good as it is, the bass reflection is good, but very expensive which would put off 90 percent of people.
So which one is the best for the black fat ps2. Thx
Bro. Which racing game is that? I like it.
the PS2 to HDMI adapter has a usb port and audio jack on it i see online. Do you have to use these for some reason or can I simply plug in the adapter and an hdmi. does the sound travel through the hdmi or can it only go through the audio jack port.
will this work on an original ps2 or only with the ps2 slim?
