Is there any way to check if an ISO is pal or ntsc before burning it and playing it on the ps2? The patching programs seem to patch anything, including actual ntsc iso's, so they dotn really help as far as i know. any advice is appreciated. thx.
It usually says in the filename if its NTSC or PAL.
To be honest mate all these video mode patchers didnt work for me.
But with Swap Magic 3.6 you can choose which video mode you want the game to play in and it works pretty good (NTSC games playing back in PAL cos im in the uk)
Im not sure if theres a way to determine the video mode from an ISO itself tho.
well rule of thumbs for me is never trust anything in the labling of a game. when i get a game i always check it with dnas image patcher thats the thing u use to patch the dnas in a online game. because it says what region the game is when u load it up in the program, even if its not a online game its just easier to do and only takes a few seconds and its cheaper than having burn a game and come to find out its not displaying right example:(rolling picture and black and white). i have a friend that had to learn that the hard way he probly has have like 5 or so PAL version games he didnt check and or was labled wrong.
roody911 has posted the elf filenames/regions correctly.
Jamaal10 has not. He's got them mixed together.
If you don't have IsoBuster, you can also mount the iso image with Alcohol, Daemon or NeroImage, then just browse to the virtual drive & see the elf files (SLES/SLUS etc..) there.
