Hi everyone, recently i got a slim PS2 with FMCB 1.95 installed. I burned a couple of games (2x speed, IMGBurn, Verbatim 16x DVD-R) but some of them is not even launched properly. I saw on other community about ESR compatible list that said "Way of the Samurai 2" and "Rumble Roses" are confirmed to work with ESR but when I burned those into my dvd, it doesn't seem to work. Anyone know how to troubleshooting this kind of problem? Thank you in advance
+R DVD's are much higher quality media to burn on than -R (-R was only recommended back in the day because the original PS2 could not read them due to it being released before DVD+R's got released so did not support them, by the time the PS2 slim arrived they included DVD+R support)
I presume 2x is the slowest speed you can burn at, if not try a slower speed
also if your games have a different region to the list it may have an effect or even different to your console there may be a video out issue a bit hard to tell with the vague description of the issue
no idea if those games work though they are not on my compat list
I see, I'll try the Verbatim DVD+R version and see how it turns out. MY PS2 model number: SCPH-77001. Most of the ISOs are NTSC region and patched with ESR before burning into the discs. Burn speed: 2x slowest and other games run great.
Your Verbatim DVD media might just be cheap CMC or even worse. Brand doesn't mean much these days.
If they're low quality discs then some may work on consoles but possibly many won't. The same discs will probably work fine as data discs on PC, or video discs for a DVD/BD player.
If you get Verbatim DVD+R the story could be the same.
I don't think it's made by CMC. Manufacturer ID MCC 03RG20
"Good" media is subjective. The true test is if it works when it should. It sounds like you're doing everything right, so it's most likely that your blanks aren't good for this purpose.
I think that's the case though. Maybe my dvd driver is old so it produces bad disc?Quote:

If those are legit they should be ok. But there discs out there with that exact same ID that are fakes.Quote:
