Hi, I have a problem.

I am using SwapMagic 3.6, when I insert an NTSC game after swapping, I have to set the mode to "PAL" to get it in color. The problem is that in PAL mode, the sound is repeating and distorted. I have a PAL PS2 v10 connected via an RGB cable to my 50hz TV, my friend has the same PS2 connected with a regular cable to a 60hz TV and the same backups that glitch on mine, work fine for him, only my PAL backups run fine on mine =( can someone help?

(Is there a converter to make my NTSC games PAL?)

*The sound in the games do work when I select 'Normal' at the SwapMagic menu, it only goes glitchy on PAL mode... but thats the only one giving it color...

Yo, why don't you just set the video mode to NTSC? I have the same version of swap magic and i just set video mode to NTSC and they all work perfect.

But do you have these:

-50hz only TV
-PS2 v10
-SwapMagic v3.6

My problem is, if I put it to PAL mode it will display color but the sound will glitch and distort. If I put it in Normal or NTSC mode it will be black & white with good sound =/

Any help? I tried an RGB Cable but it doesnt work for the other modes except PAL... I need a NTSC to PAL converter to play my NTSC backups, anyone has one?

There is a converter on that site. Just scroll down to it.

Your problem does seem pretty weird. Hopefully converting them will fix your problem. ;)

I've converted my game with NTSC&PAL from exploitstation, now I can boot it on 'Normal' mode, but the sound still glitches... it's not the game, cuz my friend also has v10 and again it works great on his...
