Hello - I just got a Slim PS2 and I have a Mac Mini. I have some home videos on the Mac that I would like to play on my TV. I don't want to burn them to DVD each time. I've tried to find answers on this forum, but I have had no luck.

So, I know I can I connect my PS2 and Mac. Ideally, I would like to play my movies and music as well. My question is, what software do I need to get to play media? Does Game Shark work? Or is there something else?

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance

You can't just stream stuff through your ps2, that just can't be done. If your ps2 has a HDD, you can store certain kinds of media on that and play it from there.

Thanks for the reply. I've thought about that too. I do have an external HD that I could dump the movies and music on there and hook it up to my PS2. But, do I need some software for the PS2 to read the media? Would it be USB Extreme?

Thanks again
