its plays DVD movies. an avi on a dvd disc isnt a dvd movie exactly, so no, it wont play avi and mpeg, it will play retail DVDs

I believe that the new PSTwo can now played DVD movies burned on a DVD+/-. I know the regular PS2's can't play anything burned.

My PS2 says (on the box) that is will play DVD-R, and some DVD+R, but every +R I've tried doesn't work. But the -R's work just fine. It's not one of the new ones, so some of the older ones are able to play them.

Weird, cause I've tried like pratically every DVD format and it just refuses to work on my PS2.
