Anyone got an IFOEdit rip to work on a PS2?

They work on my standalone but not on the PS2.

Is there a special method or is it the writing software that is causing the problem. I currently use Nero.

If anyone has got it to work can you please post what writing software you used.

Thanks...

It depends of media you're using and the version of your PS2.

PS2 can read -R media (not sure).

old PS2 can't read -RW nor +RW media (tested).

newest PS2 version can read +RW media (tested).

newest PS2 version can read -RW media (not sure).

for more info visit www.dvdplusrw.org page:

PD: Look for Sony brand at the bottom of the page.

Then your PS2 must read DVD-Video too.

Did you tried with a original DVD movie?

It's confusing:
Your standalone reads DVD made with ifoedit.
Your PS2 can't read the same disk.

Wait!
What UDF version you're using: 1.02 or 1.5
I read somewhere that PS2 needs UDF 1.5 version (Don't believe me, but I read that)
Check what kind of version did you use for writing the PS2 games to DVD-R

pop your ps2 game into your dvd burner, open up prassi primodvd 2.0

make a gi image...to your hd

burn back the gi image to a blank dvdr

and thus you have a perfect dvd copy of a ps2 game

Not too sure which version of UDF I'm using. I've used Nero 5564 so it's whatever version of UDF this is using.

The only place where I've seen an option to select a UDF format is in VOB InstantDVD.

Anyone used this or GearDVD to make a PS2 compatible DVD using IFOEdit?

The strange thing is when the DVD is re-authored using SpruceUp or something similar, the DVD-R works fine. So it's not an issue of the PS2 reading the disc, it's purely down to the structure of the re-burnt DVD or the writing software. At the moment I don't know which.

Hi!

Yes it is possible to copy DVD Movies to DVD-r and play them in PS2. Ps2 play everything. My first DVD Copies i forgot to get VTS sectors and they havn`t accepted in any standalone DVD Player the PS2 played them.
Copying DVD PS2 Games? I do not think that that belongs in this forum. It is very simple but i am tired about all this Modchip shit and so i buy my games.

GearDVD seems to be the way to go as it is strict in verifying the VIDEO_TS folder you want to burn.

I keep getting this error which is probably why it doesn't work on the PS2.

Load error on file VTS_01_0.IFO
File cannot be loaded at the required address (646) because the address is already occupied.
First available address is 659.

I've stripped streams, ReMPEG'd and then ReMuxed to a new directory creating a new VIDEO_TS.IFO file so that it plays just the movie straight off.

Anyone know how to solve this problem?

Excellent! GearDVD now working perfect and the DVD-R works perfect on the PS2.

Found the answer in another thread. You need to add a VIDEO_TS.VOB file. At first I tried the old trick of adding a 0 byte text file and renaming it but this doesn't work. So all you do is add a small VIDEO_TS.VOB file which apparently can be from any DVD. Luckily the one I was doing was only 179Kb so this was ideal.

Thanks to everyone for there help.

Same ps2 problem

Hey I am having the same problem with my ps2. I made a copy of Swordfish and it works on my computer with a program that only plays whole discs and not just files, so I know I am pretty close. I just looked at the disc I made and it didnt have a video_ts.vob file, but I dont have one to put on. Will a blank file work?

A blank file won't work. Any valid VIDEO_TS.VOB will work. The smaller the better.

Don't forget you will have to do a 'Get VTS Sectors' before burning.

Ok I found a video_ts.vob file on fast and the furious so I tried using that and I still had a problem. I copied the video_ts.vob file to my ripped VIDEO_TS folder that I had already used ifoedit and get VTS sectors on. I used get VTS sectors again after I added the video_ts.vob file to the folder. It still wouldnt work in my PS2. Do I need to re-rip the dvd and only do the get VTS sectors at the end? Will doing get VTS sectors twice cause a problem? Are there any other things I could be doing wrong? (I am using the guide in Doom9 to just get the main movie). The disc will play on my computer, so I have to be close. Any suggestions?

To play PS2 backups you need modchip and DVD-Region-X (US)or Action Replay 2 (Euro), not required for PSX backups. Some games will also require a patch applied (EA games for example)
