NTSC/PAL patching

Ive got a hold of a few NTSC ps2 games and have tried to patch them so they work in color on my PAL machine with no luck so far.

Im experienced in patching psx games and im wondering which software is most reliable to convert these.

I bought an NTSC-PAL convertor from Maplins and play NTSC games in colour by connecting the device in between the AV lead (White/Yellow/Red) out of the PS2 and the TV. I take the convertor out for PAL games.

I've read on the forum that a full 21-pin SCART lead will also do the job, but my PS2 is too far from the TV to manage that.

I had an idea about that but Im talking more along the lines of a software to add a patch to the game like PPFomatic.

Ive tried it with MX2002 and it worked but the screen went of center.

Are there any other softwares?

That's the problem - the search for the perfect patch vs a 100% solution that costs shell-out money as opposed to time, patience, trial and effort.
