What is the name of the adaptor I need to connect a PS2 to a tv?

The PS2 has 3 joined leads (red, yellow, white) which connect to the back of the tv.


But I have a new tv which has the scart socket instead of the 3 sockets. I know you can buy an adaptor to solve this problem, but what is the name of it?

You've got a ps2 with a composite A/V cable. There are fairly cheap adapters which will convert it to a SCART connection. You don't have to use online, just go to a local electronics store, they should have one.





Before you do that, though, where did you get the ps2? I thought UK ps2's were generally sold with SCART, not composite A/V. Composite is the American standard. Check the back of the ps2, for the serial number, the one after the letters "scph." If it ends in 2 (or 3) you're fine. But if it ends in 0 or 1, it's NTSC and no adapter will make it work on a UK standard-definition tv. You'd have to go HD, or get an ntsc tv. Or a more expensive ntsc-to-pal converter.
