Ok. I am trying to hookup my playstation 2 for my newphew who is visiting tomorrow. The TV is an older one where you can't use input cables. However, I have the playstation/TV adaptor where you connect the cable through the cord and into the playstation. It is hooked up exactly like it should be. I turn it to channel 3 of 4. Just normal cable. There is no input button or button to change from regular television. Has anyone encountered a similar problem? Does anybody know how to change the input without the button? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, THK |

My only thought would be to look into getting an rf modulator. That is what I had to do with my x-box, since my old tv doesn't have red yellow white compatability

Is there an on-screen menu? maybe you can change it there.

I have an old VCR that I have connected to an older TV up at the cottage. With the VCR hooked up through the cable, I can hook up the PS to the AV hook-ups on the front of the VCR.

1) Like post 8 says, see if you have an on-screen menu with an auxiliary-in option. or 2) Make sure you have a game in and then turn the PS2 on once it is hooked up. You might have already tried this, but I used to have an old TV downstairs with a sega hooked up to it and it would only show up with a game in.
I realize this post is probably a little late. Maybe your nephew showed up and figured it out.
