Great video, exactly what I needed. Knew I was "home" when you started using Notepad to keep it straight. Thought I was overcomplicating, but you confirmed I wasn't. Thank you.
THANK YOU SO MUCH I just bought a ps2 secondhand to play at college and was struggling with hooking it up to my computer, I had already bought an AV converter (that exact one, actually!) and an HDMI cable so I just need the video capture card ! I'm so glad the stuff I bought will work haha
Fantastic video! It was extremely informative and very affordable to do! Video quality is pretty decent! And finally after years of wondering how to record gameplay on the PS2 system I finally have a clear answer! Thank you so much for this video!
Glad it helped, enjoy playing your PS2 and recording your game play.
This setup is just great it works very nice. You can output desktop audio , then you capture sound, and it plays from your computer or screen!
Omg yes! Needed this I'll be sure to come back to follow the tutorial.
Double click on where it says sony ps2 in sources, then scroll all the way down to where it says audio output mode, click "use custom device", then click next to "audio device", click "Digital Audio Interface (USB Digital Audio).
that's how to get the sound without recording
I also had to go to the mixer and under properties for the capture card, switch audio monitoring to “monitor and output” 👌
Do I click on Capture Audio? Or, Output Desktop Audio? Cause, I tried it before and it does not work for me. And, I am using 1 Monitor and that is it.
8:41 To get the sound: Go toOBS Setting > Audio and set up a Mic/Auxiliary Audio to the Capture Card. Then Advanced Audio Properties to change the Mic/Aux Audio Monitoring to Monitor and Output.
Cool guide! Thx for sharing.
Getting the sound to work is easy! Under audio mixer click the settings gear & set your video capture device (whatever you named it) to Monitor & Output under “Audio monitoring”
Thanks, I figured that out later. Here is an updated video where I talk more about the audio monitoring - czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! thanks to you i can stream one of my absolute favorite games from the PS2 to my friends online!
also I figured out how to get the sound to output so you can hear it from the game instead of just when you stream it! thanks again!!!
Glad the video helped, enjoy your PS2 and streaming it!
how did you figure it out tho? i can't find a solution
Thank you for the tutorial!!
Thank you so much man!
Finally I can run my PS2 again and rock these games I miss the most 😭
The only issue is I hope I find these in my country 😂
Glad the video helped. PS2 is still the best in my book, enjoy and Happy New Year!
@@JUMBLE2015 Yes! PS2 does never age!
And Thank you sir! Happy new year to you too!
If you hit your audio settings on OBS you can monitor and record the sound so you’ll hear it as you’re recording or just on standby
I can't wait to do this on my gaming laptop! This is so awesome. My huge TV isn't the best since it stretches the whole ps2 screen widely and it isn't as good as it would be on a smaller screen. Luckily for me, I can do this.
I did an updated video for this. It is basically the same thing, but in this one I show how to hear the sound while playing (something I didn't know how to do in my original video). Let me know if you have any issues once you try it: czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
@@JUMBLE2015 awesome, I ordered a part for my computer. Once it comes I'll be trying all this out. I'll message you to see how it goes. Thank you for the help!
If you want to hear the audio while you play, you have to push the file, audio, and put all the mutes on audio output and you can hear it.
If I'm using a pc and monitor which do I hook it up to?
@@nathanmoore2921 Wdym
@@nathanmoore2921 i may be wrong but I think its the monitor
@@nathanmoore2921 pc desktop
Just so I'm getting this right?
You have to Select
- File
- Audio
- Select the USB Audio?
Thank you so much so the huge tip.
to fix audio you change the audio output mode under the video capture source
@jumble you can buy a hdmi splitter and put a tv on one hdmi output and then use your headset
amazing ty I was just missing the video converter. should havemy Bratz Forever Diamondz up and running soon!!! thank you!
Thank you so much!
Thank you for right informesan sir
I just needed this video so I can record my old PS2 games and needed to know how to connect it to my Laptop
thats a good video. i hope you are fine
Secondary audio controller would probably fix your issue with sound.
I just bought online one of these HDMI to AV to connect my laptop to my ps2 .wish me luck.
Thanks for the video. Is there a way to get rid of the crackling when you play/ record/ stream the game? Is it a loss of quality sound because of the material?
7:38 u can fix that with buying a hdmi splitter and playing the game via a seperat tv
This is unholy but it worked. Thank you sir.
Glad the video helped, enjoy playing your PS2!
@@JUMBLE2015 thank you, I will :D
"Hardest and most expensive thing to get" - unless you happened to have one when you were a kid and kept it because of sentimental value
Huh. This actually is a pretty comprehensive guide. I think I still have the cables lying around somewhere for that old PS2 I own ... still got memcards for it too. Huh.
I was thinking of a better way to record ps2 gameplay but I never tried it. My idea was to get a smart tv that can screen record and one with a YPbPr Component input for a YPbPr Component cable for best quality. So all you would do is hook up the ps2 and a hard drive to the tv and it puts the recording on the hard drive then hook it up the hard drive to your computer then bang hd footage.
Neat!
You explained it perfectly 😂other videos were all over the place or didn't show how to work it. Is it possible to do voice over? Or would you have to do that in a separate program while obs is running?
Glad the video helped. Just FYI, here is an updated version of this but in this video I had figured out how to hear the sound while playing: czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html - to answer your question, with OBS studio in your audio settings you could turn on the microphone and it would record your game play, sound as well as your microphone (so anything you are saying as you play). I think you might be able to add your webcam as an extra source as well so you could record yourself playing. . . as well as the game play (I haven't tried that, but pretty sure it can be done). Hope that all makes sense and helps.
@@JUMBLE2015 thanks! It does makes sense will be watching the updated video too👍
do you know how to config freemcboot so it can read backup games from a pc through a rj45 cable?
Hi, i have a rexus Hd100 capture card. If I plugged the AV2HDMI to that capture card and plugged in to my PC. Will it work?
Whats the least system spec to do this pls cause I could not get it done
How do you view controller 🎮 inputs?
i figure out the audio problem in windows you go to properties and go to the audio output click on it and put directsound and make sure the use custom audio device is checked and at the bottom make sure is in digital audio interface that's how I got my sound 🤔 I'm not sure if it would work with everybody windows but ye
That works for me, but even though I can now hear the sound, it doesn't record the it. It swapped it around for me.
Thanks dude. everything works as it should. Check out the ps2 gameplay channel
Is it ok to connect a usb hub to one of my ps2 slim , so I can connect my monitor , video converter and speaker power supply....And i don't have an ac adapter... Only power cable...Is it ok if I do this ? Will there be any voltage issue ??
hmmm so that's means in this case of scenrio, you didb't hook up ps2's rca in back of tv? geez i've should've known this
I use a capture card with loop out capture card
tenkiu
I use OBS and I can tell you that you can not hear the audio because the audio out is muted
So how do I play the game on my TV while streaming it
Broo i have all the things but i dont have a hdmi cable...i have a vga cable and also a convertor.....so can i use that as that.....
Ma se io ho un ingresso HDMI sul mio lap top posso solo usare lo splitter o devo per forza usare una capture card ?
Bro i have 1080 conventer but resolution is very bad low is there any tip?my tv is also 4k qled lg but resolution is lower than my old tv pls help!
Also the HDMI problem is because HDMI on computers are output not inputs.
I have one that doesn't look like a box and doesn't have a cord will that one work?
I followed everything here and it worked except the AUDIO. I didn't get the game audio into my PC. I need help.
the hdmi port on your computer cant get input, only output that is why you cant just plug the hdmi cable into your pc :/ (atleast that is for most motherboards ehhhh)
Can I skip that hdmi to usb element and connect hdmi cable directly to my PC and then capture input with OBS?
That was my first thought as well. . . just connect the HDMI cable to my computer and play. For me it did not work until I bought the Video Capture Card. Hope that helps.
When I plug it into my pc I’m only hearing sound and it’s saying the hdmi is out of range
I have another cheaper solution for the white box... i hace a HDMI to SCAT and a SCAT to VCA converter
We can just plug the hdmi from ps2 to laptop's hdmi without thr white box!!
You need the hdmi to ps2 converter
i have an issue where the ps2 menu looks fine but if i start a game it's all stuttery. how can i resolve that?
My screen flickers to black sometimes and obs doesn't recognise the ps2 as a device ,only my webcam
Can I go for full screen mode while playing without recording?
Open the Scene you would like to view full screen
Right-Click in the grey border of the image
Click Fullscreen Projector (Preview)
Click the display you wish to project onto fullscreen. The default is “Display 0:“
I'm not interested in filming the PS2 however I am wondering if you can connect a PS2 to a Chromebook and if I can use the same RCA to HDMI adaptor.
if your chromebook has a hdmi port you can just use the hdmi lead from the converter to the chromebook. thats what i do
wow cool it works but i get no sound on my headset. what do you have to set there?
In OBS studio, click on the gear icons under "Audio Mixer" - then choose Advanced Audio Properties. . . in there for "Mic/Aux" change the Audio Monitoring to Monitor and Output. If you do that you should be able to both hear the sound on your PS2 while playing as well as on the recording play back should you choose to record. Hope that helps but let me know if you still have questions.
I'm trying to do this with stream labs and its confusing as soon as you switch to o BS.
how does this $20 capture card compare to cards im seeing the pro streamers use $100+?
how do I get it to go full screen
Just right click on the display in OBS studio and choose "Fullscreen Projector" and choose the computer monitor you want it displayed on full screen.
Im french so sry for the possible mistakes.
My question can be kinda weird but : now that the rca cable is connected to the hdmi box, how do you connect the PS2 to a TV ?
Im also not very good in informatic sry ahah
@@kevinalejandrodanielcalder6644 ye i see i will watch for it thank u !!
Is there a way I could just go LIVE on my twitch instead of having to upload?
Yes with OBS you could just go live an stream to either CZcams or Twitch.
when i do this it just says no signal
Either way I actually had a slip version of the PS2 so can this also work for that version as well or is it just the original original PS2
This will work for the slim version as well. I also figured out how to hear the sound while playing (which when I had done this video could not figure out). Here is an example of what the quality of the video it will produce just as an FYI: czcams.com/video/Ewys-CY2S9Y/video.html
@@JUMBLE2015 it says video is unavailable
Can you use a component cable instead?
just use a component to hdmi converter instead
When I try to do this I get to the same problem, but there isn't even any sign it's recording the audio input when I try recording. :(
This is an updated version of this video. Check this out, and let me know if you still have issues. You might need to go to your audio settings and make sure it is pointing to the correct item - czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
It looks to me that when you said you were unable to get audio it showed your desktop audio was all the way down
It was actually the audio properties. I figured it out later, and did a new video which shows how to control that. That video is here, just FYI - czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
Do I need the video capture card if I’m not interested in streaming/recording ?
Yes you will still need it.
What's the best resolution to select?.. and I keep getting a black and white screen.. how to I get color?
Hum, not sure why you would be getting black and white. As far as resolution I have both the base and output set to 1920x1080 and the Common FPS set to 60. I have never really messed with those too much because the video always looked good to me with these settings.
I have everything set but the hdmi capture card and when I tried it doesn’t fit towards my Hdmi lol
The capture card is a receiver device, the other hdmi is out only. Basically you connect the USB port on the pc
mine doesnt show usb video mine shows FY HD video
Is the hdmi to USB just for video capturing or do you need it just to run the ps2 in general?
You will need it in order to connect the PS2 to the computer. If you just want to play your PS2 on a TV for example, you don't need it at all.
@@JUMBLE2015 thank you 😄
Diginose card (run)
GTX GPU computer
for those using a pc instead of laptop, would we connect one of the hdmi to the monitor or still both into the computer?
I still think you would connect to the HDMI on the computer vs. the monitor.
@@JUMBLE2015 thanks, everything ended working just fine! im using voice meter bananna but I found a work around to have it play audio after your updated method didnt seem to work for my pc!
@@brozb4chorez831 Awesome. Just FYI, here is an updated video I did but in this one I figured out how to hear the sound while playing. Enjoy your PS2, take care!
I bought a similar hdmi converted mine had female connectors to it so I just take the male inputs and connect with the female and the converter also came with a hdmi cable my problem is I bought a wireless controller so I can play on my tv but once I turn on ps2 and the browser/ configuration menu comes up the buttons don’t work I think my controller is just defected!
So if I'm streaming this game on twitch for something without recording, are they still able to hear the sound?
Yes they would be able to hear as long as you have the sound on. You do not have to record at all.
hello. i tried hooking up like u did but mine isn't working. is there's a proper wa to do so? and what kind of hmdi cable do i use>
Here is an updated video where I also show how to hear the sound during your playing. The links to all the items I use are in the description of the video. The HDMI cable is just a basic Amazon Basics one - czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
Hi! And how can u get sound from ps2?
This is an updated video which shows you how to get sound - czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
Do I NEED the video capture usb I have everything else including obs
I could not get it to work until I had all items in the video.
will it work even if I dont have the hdmi video capture, just with the regular hdmi?
For me I needed all the items I showed in the video. I did an updated video as well. It is basically the same as what you watched but in this one I show how you can listen to the sound while playing: czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
Will this work for Discord?
I have that, but I need sound, I have mine hooked up to my computer monitor and I need another converter I guess. Any tips?
Hum, here is an updated video where I show how you can hear the sound while playing. Have you tried hooking up to your computer vs. the monitor? czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
@@JUMBLE2015 I just have the monitor, not the cpu.
So if we click streaming na the viewers can hear the sound but we cant hear right?
It will depend on how you have your Advanced Audio Properties setup. Monitor Off I don't think you will hear audio but they will. Monitor Off and Output you will hear audio while playing and your audience will as well.
Ïm so struggling with that.... idk what am i doing wrong . Or atleast i managed to connect it to my Monitor but when i plug in my AUX to the monitor the sound still goes from the Monitor itself and not into the headset. why is that so ?
Here is a newer video where I get more into the audio settings. If this does not get you fixed up just let me know and we can do further troubleshooting - czcams.com/video/KpzJhujEs-8/video.html
Question would this work with the ps2 slim?
It will work for any device with the yellow, white and red jacks (i.e. PS2, VCR, camcorders, etc.). I never had a PS2 slim but as long as it has those it will work.
anyone ever manage to use the PS2 to HDMI adapter with a HDMI to VGA adapter on a VGA PC monitor?
Hey man, I'm in the same situation. Did you find out if it works?
Can't do it
In video capture mode in device the usb video is not showing.what to do.plz help
I have connected it via hdmi port
can we put hdmi cable direct into laptop if we have the hdmi slot
It did not work for me when I tried that (I thought the same thing as well). The only thing that worked was all of the items I showed in the video.
@@JUMBLE2015 thanks
hello do we need that HDMI video capture to play on our laptops? im trying to get it to display on my lenovo thinkpad laptop
I tried it without the HDMI video capture and it would not work. The only way I got it to work was using everything I show in the video. Hope that helps.
@@JUMBLE2015 yo this actually worked haha i bought that hdmi video capture off amazon. Im totally going to use this when i travel now. thank you
@@bryangonzalez9478 Glad it worked, enjoy your PS2!
@@JUMBLE2015 by any chance is there a way to fix the delay in the audio?
@@bryangonzalez9478 Hum, I don't notice any delay with mine. Might vary depending on the specs of your computer (not sure). I haven't had anyone else say they had issues with that but maybe someone else will chime in if they have and figured out a fix.
I followed the steps but for some reason on obs it just says no signal... unsure what im doing wrong. I plugged in all the cables as directed in the video
Make sure you have your PS2 on, under sources in OBS studio double click on the source you built for your PS2. Change the "device" to something else. . . . . then flip it back to USB video. If you have it plugged in correct, when you hit the correct device you should see your PS2. Let me know if you still can't get it. Here is an updated video just as an FYI. . . in this one I show how you can hear the sound while you are playing: czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
@@JUMBLE2015 thank you! appreciate your help :)
how do I make it not delayed? its hard to play precise games cause mine is like a half second delayed
Your computer processer could have something to do with it. What you might try is in OBS studio. . . go to file --> Settings --> Output. Set the video bit rate to 3500 KBPS. Set the Encoder Preset to "veryfast". Set the Recording Quality to "Indistinguishable Quality, Large File Size". Then go to the "Video" section of settings and make sure your Downscale Filter to "Bilinear (Fastest, but blurry if scaling). . . and your Common FPS Values to "30". Then click OK to get out of settings. See if that doesn't help.
@@JUMBLE2015 Thank you! I will try tonight and update! appreciate it none the less
Assuming this works for PS1 as well because same inputs as PS2?
Thanks for the nice comment. Yes you can use this same process for the PS1, Nintendo, VCR, etc.
@@JUMBLE2015 man this opens the flood gates! What do you use to input your audio commentary to overlap/record simultaneously as game is playing?
@@I80SportsBlog I personally don't do that, but it is easy if you wanted to. If you plug in a microphone/headset you will see it as an audio source in OBS studio. You can simple choose to mute it (so that the only sound in your recording is the game play), or you can un mute it so that it will capture your PS2 audio as well as what you are saying on the microphone. You can also use the audio mixer volume controls so that your mic audio is louder that the PS2 audio. I do it all thru OBS, I am sure there is a fancier way to do it but OBS is free and works perfect for me. Hope that helps, let me know if you have questions once you get going.
@@I80SportsBlog Also just FYI, here is an updated video I did where I had figured out the sound issue - czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
@@JUMBLE2015 thank you so much. What microphone do you use, anything fancy?
Please make for tv
Do you mean how to connect your TV to your computer? If so this might help - czcams.com/video/xverTp71onw/video.html
How is the sound quality?
If you go to about 9:55 in the video you can hear it. Granted I made no adjustments to the sound options in OBS studio. Just as a reference, hope this helps.
Tried it but not working lol it doesn’t fit
Why can’t i just comnect the hdmi cable directly on the hdmi port of my computer?? Why are all those extensions needed?
That was my thought as well and when I started this process and that was what I tried first. It did not work for me, the only thing I could get to work was everything I showed in this video.
@@JUMBLE2015 ok got it… thanks for letting me understand
Following step by step but the screen is still black. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Hum. So make sure you have your PS2 on (not required but I find it helps to be able to find the source). In OBS studio look at the sources. . . double click the one you created for your PS2. . . . when the Properties window for that source opens, click the "Window" drop down and look for the one that says something like "USB" video. If you hit the right one, you should see your PS2 playing which will confirm that you are on the right one. Let me know if that does not make sense. Also here is an updated version where I figured out how to hear the sound when you play: czcams.com/video/br-d-GegO4g/video.html
@JUMBLE still same problem. Weird because these accessories are new. Maybe the cpu is too low but other recommendations would be great. Also saw you were playing with Houston. I'm in Houston and think the Coogs can actually win the Final Four here. Thanks for the help again.
