Thanks to code compatibility (the PS2's R5900 is mostly upward compatible to the PS1's R3000) and it's way higher speed (300 MHz vs. 34 MHz) a workable emulation in Software was possible.

In the end, there were a handful of games that just wouldn’t run properly, resulting in us compiling a public blacklist of PS1 games that players wouldn’t be able to play on the system. If Ps1 games are good at their original resolution using it, then you shouldn't have problems also with a SCART-RGB. That's the reason you've been suggested to use PS1VModeNeg: Woon Yung's Website - PS1VModeNeg (google.com) The Ps2 forces Ps1 games output to match with Ps2 region (so a PAL Ps2 will force also NTSC games to PAL and viceversa).
