It clocked in with PI Errors of 202.55 and PI Failures of 0.30 This is what the PS2 was seeing, and this befuddled data stream is why the PS2 simply could not load this crap burn! Now the bad news, look at the cheap Dynex media. Notice the Sony burn is nearly and INDETICAL scan of the original disc! I shows PI Errors of 7.0 and PI Failure of 0.08
In the scans of the original pressed disc we see average PI Errors of 2.70 and PI Failures of 0.03. On the Dynex burn, the grid markers have been raised to 500! For the Pressed Disc and Sony burn, the left grid markers are below 50. Notice in the scan the numbers on the left side are representative of the error spikes. I did this because that is the MAX speed the PS2 will spin the disc, so wee need to run the test at the PS2 speed to see what the PS2 will be seeing. Notice the differences! In the scan you see I ran the test at a max of 4x speed. Next is a scan of the higher quality Sony DVD+R burn Unfortunately, I loaned this disc to a neighbor that isn’t as careful with discs as I am, so there where some scratches on it which means a slightly higher error count than expected. The first pic is a scan of the Original PS2 disc as pressed by the factory. I’ve used Nero to take some quality scans of the disc. I played the first opening bit (been a while since I played this game and I damn near got killed!), and it worked flawlessly. After the burn, I loaded it in the PS2 and voila, it worked. I booktyped it for DVD-ROM, and set the burn speed to 4X.

I then took the very same ISO file on my HD and reburned it on a Sony DVD+R disc. I tried that, and the same thing happened. These are cheap discs, and only go down to a 6X burn. I tried a second burn at the lowest speed this disc supports. My first Dynex burn at 8x, once I loaded it in the PS2, would show the PS2 Logo meaning the mod-chip and system read the disc and saw it was supposed to be a PS2 game. For data back-up and music, they also work ok, but are just crap for PS2 burns. They are OK for DVD burns (especially if you have a newer standalone DVD player, but simply worthless for PS2 burns. That’s 5 cents apiece, and there is a reason why they are so cheap. Then I tried an 8X burn on a crap disc called Dynex (which is a Verbatim throw away – it failed QA testing, but BestBuy will buy failure lots and re-sale them on the cheap). If you set you burner to DVD-ROM for the burn, you are guaranteed greater compatibility with the reading device since all pressed discs such as PS2 games and Movies are pressed as DVD-ROM.įor this test, I ripped the ISO fine. However, with DVD+R (plus R) that area is writable by your burner. During manufacturing, the area of the lead-in that holds the book type mark is overwritten. The –R (minus R) do NOT allow booktyping due to the way the are manufactured. The +R discs allow you to booktype the burn as a DVD-ROM. The best and safest bet is to get Verbatim +R. You MUST have a high quality media for burning. The cheaper blank DVDs on the market don’t’ support burns lower than 6x. The burn speed has to be supported by BOTH your DVD Burner AND your blank media. After you select your media, you have to select a suitable burn speed. Now the important part is the burn, and the MOST important part is the type of Media (blank disc) you use. The important part is that you get a good rip from the disc into that ISO file that you just named. So, it doesn’t matter if you name it RE4.ISO, DVDIMAGE.ISO, or MYGAME.ISO. The thing to remember here is you are only naming the ISO file that you save to your hard drive. However, I simply renamed it as RE4.ISO before I saved off for the rip. It cam up with DVDIMAGE.ISO on my rip as well. Usually the PS2 games have a “Volume ID” name which the manufacturers load with the name of the game such s “RE4” or “ResidentEvil4” but apparently the Volume ID was not set on this disc. That’s fine, it’s just the default of the filename that you want to save the ISO file as on your Hard Drive. Ok, you say it came up with DVDIMAGE.ISO when you went to rip it.
