Mcbazel HDMI Adapter for PS2/PS1, for PS1/PS2 to HDMI Adapter Converter Support 4:3/16:9 Screen Aspect Rtio Switch and Switching 480p/720p Resolution

I read through quite a few reviews for PS2 to HDMI adapters. What made me settle on this one in particular was the option to set the aspect ratio to match old CRT screens versus the new wide-screen format of flat-panel displays. Connecting it was simple and straightforward and I was able to use the USB port on the front of the PS2 to power it with the included cable. Works exactly as expected and once I'm done reminiscing with my PS2, I'll pull out my PS1 and test it out there, though I expect it to work just as well for that console.

This adapter worked like a charm. My husband loves it and we were able to put it on a newer or older tv. Great value, good picture quality and the length of the cable is ideal.

Compatible with and provides audio and video from ps2 and ps2 slim to my modern 4k OLED with ease. I’ve noticed zero lag from button inputs to video and the audio is synced perfectly for the few games I’ve tried (haven’t tried a dvd yet, but I’m pretty much all blu ray/UHD with the ps5 these days). It does require a dedicated power source via usb mini with a short cable included. I swapped an outlet with one that includes usb an and c to eliminate the need for a usb brick (not included) when powering the unit.

Unlike other PS1-to-HDMI adapters that use RGB signal (better quality) for converting to HDMI, this one is using S-Video (Luma & Chroma) signal to convert video output to HDMI. The quality is good but not as good as RGB signal from the LevelHike or FeiEVER adapters. This adapter should work good to convert the the Luma & Chroma (S-Video) from the Commodore 64. Of course would have to cut off the PS1 end and place a DIN 262 connector. EDIT: So close to working on the Commodore 64 & SX-64 but getting affecting (see pic). 😫

This item works great. I found a PS2 and was able to get a power cord and a tv connection from Amazon. I would recommend this. Just remember that you need to have an HDMI cable and a nearby outlet

To remind those who don’t know, the PS2 has these outputs from lowest to highest quality: RCA (yellow white red), S-video (4-pin), RGB Scart (multi pin European output), and component video (supports HD, green blue red white red). The PS1 outputs all of these except component, so your PS1 and PS2 (along with PS1/PS2 games) can both output for this upscaler’s S-video. I had recently bought a $20 “RGB upscaler” and was horribly disappointed. It wasn’t even RGB output, because the screen made no difference between the PS2 settings switching between RGB and Component output. And the screen was so dark, I couldn’t even see in the dark Alien Trilogy PS1 game. Then I saw this little $15 cable, and was inspired by the reviews and no mention of a dark signal. This S-video upscaler is so good, I had to write a review. Heck, I ordered a second one for my friend I was so impressed. Remember, S-video is the second best output for these devices, but it’s also WAY better than the RCA cable! Because S-video splits the video signal so there is far less interference/grainy and smeared video. Now, this cable is cheap and not perfect, but it is the greatest $15 I’ve ever spent on any tech accessory. Sure, there can be some combing effects and the reds can be a little over saturated, but man this video comes clean and pretty. Remember this is a budget purchase, so don’t expect your PS2 to become a PS3. Anyway, the best part about this cable is that now, I can easily and comfortably play PS1 AND PS2 games through beautiful upscaled S-video with perfect audio, no noticeable lag, and the best part compared to other upscalers, no horrible dark screens.

A good quality product. Very nice built. The manufacturing finish is really high quality. Good hd quality on my playstation 1

Installation is self-explanatory. The only real caveat is that you need to provide a USB port somewhere for power to the adapter unit. When connected to a PS1 slim, this device will send audio to the receiver or TV, but not video. It was a pretty huge disappointment until I realized that the PS2 has the same physical connector on the console, so upon installing it on the PS2, it works great.
