I got just a blank screen after inserting the Swap Magic dvd or cd using component cables hooked up versus composite or s-video cables on PS2 console? Please help

Thanks in advance

You may have to go into the settings in the PS2 Browser, and change it from composite to component.

If you can't see the screen on your tv, then use the av cables first to change the settings.
Then switch to the component cables.

I used to use the AV cables, and I used to see the swap magic screen.
After changing to component (and of course, changing from RGB to YPbCr on the menu - there are no such options as composite/component - otherwise I wouldn't see any picture at all) I can't see the Swap magic screen. Games and DVDs work fine nonetheless.

Any other clues?

That is what I meant by composite or component (rgb or YPbCr), sorry

Ok your saying its just the Swap Magic DVD or CD that shows up "blank" on the hdtv, but it worked fine on your other tv using the composite cables
and all your other games or DVD work fine on the hdtv.

I am not sure why that would be, sorry.

So is this a known issue with Swap Magic and component cables?

Yeah I have the same problem. I have the ps2 set to use component cables. I use the swap disc, and wait until it stops spinning, but the screen doesn't show on the TV. I just put in the back up and hit x, and it'll work anyway. Not much of a big deal but kind of annoying.

See the animal in the cage that you built . . .Are you sure which side youre on?
