Hi- I have an older model Playstation 2 that plays DVD movies but with
a twist: the picture keeps fluctuating from a nice bright picture to
dim, very dim. When it becomes dim it lasts for about 13 seconds then
it brightens up nicely again for a few seconds only to dim again for 13
seconds and the cycle continues. I thought it was the TV, but it does
the same thing on every TV I try. The games play just fine. I only
experience this problem with DVD movies. Has anyone seen this before ?
Thank you.

Sounds a bit like Macrovision protection.
