![PS2 controller for PS2 Playstation 2 Wired Shock Vibration. [playstation_2]](https://images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51WztDMi-JL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
This is great, it allows me to use my Playstation 2 with my latest LG Smart TV BUT, and this is something which is not explained IN ANY youtube video or guidance I have watched or read online, you will have to access the system menu in the settings within the Playstation and toggle to the appropriate setting or the TV will register that there is no Component signal (you may hear the sound of the menu screen or the game playing through the TV but you will have no picture).
In order to be able to do this you may use the older AV cable, red plug to red receiver, white plug to white receiver and then the yellow plug to the green receiver, this will allow your TV to receive a signal from the Playstation, you will be able to access the setting menu provided you have not put a disc into the Playstation and it is just operating "empty". The setting you want to highlight is the one other than RGB (it is a string of letters). Having done this, you can then hook up this HD Component AV Cable, the colours of each of the plugs correspond to each of the receivers on the TV set and it is good to go.
There is some debate about the difference between HD Component AV Cable and PS2 to HDMI Converters. I have both, I am going to comment in a bit more detail on this after I have played more games and been able to assess properly each means of upgrading the PS2 picture for improved TV audio-visuals. What I would say is that so far I think that both the HD Component AV Cable and PS2 to HDMI Converter are better pictures that the previous AV cable attachment which I used to toggle to the other setting (I played a single game which was dark anyway but the picture was awful, really adversely effected play).
Neither are necessary to make the PS2 signal be received by the TV and part of my confusion was a consequence of having used a SCART attachment with the AV cable in my previous TV and initially not being aware, when the SCART attachment is removed, which plugs would attach to which colour corresponding receivers (yellow to green). The picture is not great though and I would only recommend using this to toggle the settings and use either HD Component AV Cable or PS2 to HDMI.
Thus far my preference is for the HD Component AV Cable but I'm going to update in time. I hope this is helpful, as I tried hard discover this information online and eventually only found it in a video which was listed as comic, I suspect because of issues with it quality.

Works Exactly as Intended

If you are looking to connect your PS2 or PS3 via component, this cable will do the job. All I had to do was hit the power button after connecting in order to change the display output from HDMI to component.By Kevin Muldoon on 24 February 2019
