Recording PS1 On PS2

Yo, maybe some of you know the problem. I use a Game Capture HD and would like to record PS1 games on my PS2. Thing is, it doesnt work. On my PS1 I can record without problems. I know it has something to do with PS1's native resolutions on PS2 which the capture card somehow doesn't handle. Now my question is, how do I fix it? I've read about some converters and upscalers which might help but I'd like to know how you guys deal with it.

Thx in advance, Oddy

I currently have been testing and streaming ps1 games on a ps2 that I use with an HDMI internal capture card (Avermedia Live Gamer HD). From the console (ps2) I use the regular AV cables and have them go into a AV to HDMI upscaler to allow resolution scales from 720 or 1080 if needed, and then it goes out as HDMI to my HDMI splitter that then redirect the signal to both my capture card and then my TV or monitor to display the game for me to play and record seamlessly with as best quality possible. This method has worked for me and with plenty of tests with various ps1 and ps2 games recently. This also worked from my Gamecube as well, so I imagine this will work for all AV cable systems. This set up is relatively cheap except for the capture card of course. The HDMI splitter and AV to HDMI upscaler can be purchased for around 50$ before shipping.

The splitter also works with PS3 and PS4 etc....

Hope this helps any more questions let me know.
