pops games showing black and white

Describe the issue

"Hello,

I am using a PAL CRT TV and I'm facing an issue where NTSC (US/Japan) games are displayed in black and white. This happens because my TV cannot decode the NTSC color signal via composite/S-Video.

I would like to ask the following:
Greek Language Support: Are there any plans to officially include the Greek language in the software interface?
Is there a way to implement or use GSM to force PAL60 output for PS1 games? Currently, when the console enters PS1 mode, GSM settings don't seem to apply, resulting in a black and white image.

Does the same logic apply to PS2 DVD games from different regions? Can we reliably force PAL60 through GSM to restore color on PAL CRT sets for all out-of-region titles?

Thank you for your time and for all your amazing work on the project!"

The PS2 hardware does not support PAL60. You have a few options:

1. If your TV has a SCART connector, use an RGB cable
2. Use a different TV that supports NTSC
3. Play PAL games instead

Thanks for the information, but unfortunately I don’t have an NTSC TV; I think the only solution is to buy an NTSC to PAL converter. Anyway, another problem I’m having is deleting games. I tried deleting them the usual way (accessing the PS2, deleting from the directory, and then updating the list from the computer), but when I put the disk back into the console, they still appear.

The ISO/ZSO/VCD files must still be on your PS2 drive:

1. If using "sync", remove the game files from the local folder on your PC before running the scrip, and the games will be deleted from the PS2 drive.
2. If using "add", delete the game files from the PS2 drive AND remove the games from the local folder on your PC before running the script.

You can also avoid rerunning the script by deleting the game files, then deleting the launcher partitions directly from the PSBBN Game Collection, or the HOSDMenu Browser, just press triangle and select delete.

How do I delete my games from the PS2 hdd?cause when I try to find my hdd are not showed on pc I also deleted all the ISO files in the PS2 directory on my computer.And when I sync the games has not been deleted

When you connect the PS2 drive to your PC, it will appear the in file explorer.

If you can provide the game-installer.log file, I'll be able to see what exactly is going on.
