Page 1 of Sony PlayStation 2 DVD player

Hi folks

I have a PS/2, it is connected to the TV via my VCR.

My problem is that some DVD`s play fine, some are patchy (poor picture and/or sound) and some won`t play at all.

Could my patchy playback be due to a Macrovision copy protection system on the PS/2 (i.e. I will need to connect directly to the TV with scart?)

cheers
Rich
