Problems with PS2

I use a Playstation 2 as a second room dvd player...but when the player reads the second layer half-way thru the movie it cuts out all the time ...the audio and the video are not in sync....I tried using a lens cleaning CD...that doesn't help to much....it happens on most discs...even new ones....any suggestions...before I spend alot on fixing it...thanx chris....by the way it reads CDs and Playstation games just fine....

I've only seen this problem with older DVD players. Solution: upgrade. Unfortunately the PS2 is brand new. I have one, and have never experienced the problems you are describing. Might be time to call Sony...

Our PS2 has seen limited duty as a movie player, but like Argent, we've never had any problems. That's pretty unacceptable behavior you're experiencing.

OK...for all you playstaion 2 owners who have problems reading any discs at all....I called Sony and they gave me a solution.....in the browser screen.....press Traingle....select console and use the auto diagnostic mode....this corrects the laser to read the disc in the most efficient way...fixed my problem in no time...with NO money....whew!...
