Ps2 cannot playback DVDs which immediately playbvack the film (only DVD's which go to a menu can be played back). It maybe the case that these disks aren't supported.
Also I don't know if that device supports the new RCE disks (these check for multiregion players and refuse to run if they find one), however I've yet to come accross an RCE disk that wasn't region 1.
