I've searched the forums and haven't been able to find a straight up answer, I'm sure this has come up before but can't find what I'm looking for.
I'm trying to play a EU copy of Vib Ribbon (ps1, PAL) on my modded slim ps2. Other imports (JAP ntsc) work fine, but with Vib Ribbon I get audio only, no picture. Is there a reason for this? I got it to work using a swap-disc (on my ps1) but couldn't play the game because it would stop spinning (you have to swap out the game disc with a music cd, and once I did that it wouldn't play).
I realize there are issues with getting PAL to display correctly, is that what the problem is? Usually you get the video in black and white with horizontal scrolling, but in this case the screen goes completely black immediately after the PS logo.
Okay, so I just found out I have the Duo 3 Ultra chip installed. Can anyone say one way or the other if it will allow PAL games to be played on a ntsc tv? Once again, it seems like it would work, but I'm not getting any video, only audio...
