How to Play PSP 2000 Games on a CRT TV

The PSP 2000, also known as the PSP Slim, was the first redesign of the Sony PlayStation Portable. In addition to a slimmer profile, the PSP 2000 added the ability to output video from the PSP to any television. For full compatibility, use the component A/V cable on a TV that supports progressive scan. If your TV does not have a component input, then you can use the composite A/V cables.

Things You'll Need

Component A/V Cable or Composite A/V Cable for PSP
Firmware Version 5.0 or Later

Instructions

- 1
  Connect the A/V cable to the Multi-Use video connector on the bottom of your PSP system.
- 2
  Connect the other end of the A/V cable to the proper input port on your TV. While composite cables use a yellow connector for video, they use red and white connectors for stereo audio. Component cables use blue, red and green connectors for video, but they use red and white connectors for stereo audio.
- 3
  Turn on your TV, and set it to the proper input channel.
- 4
  Turn on your PSP.
- 5
  Press and hold the "Display" button on the PSP for five seconds. The image will then be output to your TV, and the LCD screen on the PSP will go blank.
