I had a couple of useless DVD+R discs and once I heard that HEN can play DVD games I decided to try it.

I grabbed an iso of Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 and burned it to my DVD using imgburn then I turned on my ps3 put the disc in and it didn't work so I tried with an external dvd player and it still didn't work so could y'all help me?


I'm sorry for my bad english

I don't think that would be possible. Many walls were taken apart to have CFW and HEN, so it would be dumb to rebuild some of them in the name of anti-piracy.

In the end, you will have no way to tell if an ISO is from a legit, legally owned source or from a pirate site. Just to name an example.

it can. burned discs may wear out the laser sooner.

grab usually meams "quickly take hold of", although it can mean "wrongly take". it is hardly a confession especially if they are not a native english speaker. better to let them talk more and remove any doubt before publicly accusing them.

any changes to hen will be undone by russian pirates.

the system could ask for disc randomly for iso but that is about it. not really worth the effort and a bother to legit users.

Ok, let's give it the benefit of the doubt then. Odd that didn't mention trying to run it's own copy before or after trying the burned DVD though, don't you think?.

But yes, let's see if he plays ball :).

I ripped a copy of ninja gaiden 2 to store it as a backup incase something happened to it

Thank you. I hope this answer clarifies any doubts about the "grabbed" ISO.

It seems your mistake is in the steps making the physical back:
- after ripping your copy, you need to create a PS3 ISO using multiMAN, IRISMAN or a PC tools like genPS3ISO v2.0 or Rudi's PS3 ISO Tools.
- It's the PS3 ISO that you must burn to the DVD. Not the files ripped to folders.

If you built the ISO using a standard software, it will not work:
- The PS3 ISO contains special information in specific sectors that the PS3 verifies to detect the disc as an "original" PS3 disc.

This is the original post by @deank with the details about the feature that allows using burned DVD as PS3 backups:
https://www.psx-place.com/threads/c...urned-optical-media-support.12494/#post-70470

I don't know if DVD+R works, but they are not listed among the tested optical medias.

I tested it thoroughly to make sure nothing is broken and nothing was :)

Original discs:
* PS3 Game Disc - OK
* PS2 Game Disc - OK
* PS1 Game Disc - OK
* Blu-ray Disc - OK
* DVD Video - OK

Burned discs:
* PS3 Game (DVD-R SL/DL)
* PS2 Game (DVD-R)
* PS2 Game (CD-R)
* PS1 Game (CD-R)
* AVCHD Disc (DVD-R SL/DL)
* DVD-Video (DVD-R)
* Data Disc (DVD-R)
* Data Disc (CD-R)

PS3 games can be burned to regular CD-R, DVD-R SL/DL, BD-R SL/DL, BD-RE :)

There is no need for game manager (multiMAN/IRIS/etc) or for webMAN/MOD when launching PS3 games from burned discs. The only requirement is that the disc is properly created (unencrypted, from proper ISO or from game folder using genps3iso_v2.0) - the only check is that at sector 16 (0x10) offset 0x28 there must be a "PS3VOLUME" string [or at start of sector 1 must be a "PlayStation3" string].

BD-R/RE discs are now much cheaper than 7 years ago, so this feature could be really useful for people who want to backup their collection on optical media and play it at any time without fiddling with usb drives, network streams or ftp. :) Also it achieves 100% compatibility of all games released to date.

Here is a very simple 3 step tutorial to create a copy of an original PS3 game BD disc:

1) Put the original disc in the PS3 drive and launch mmCM
2) Create ISO from the disc (with ps3netsrv destination - that way you'll have it directly on your PC)
3) Use ImgBurn on the PC and burn the created ISO to a DVD or BD disc

Burnt DVD won't work because of that patch needs LV1 patches.

EDIT :

I think I was wrong.. maybe LV1 poke isn't needed.

Codes for the feature are found here.

Although LV1 poke is not required, this feature calls lv1_stor_wrapper_read in the function process_read_disc_cmd().
That wrapper calls lv1_storage_read which I'm not sure if that function is suppored by HEN. It looks to be an official function of the SDK.

This comment is found in the function process_read_disc_cmd():

// reasons to use lv1 calls here over lv2 storage functions
// 1: this function may be called when lv2 storage functions haven't yet received the bdvd ready event, and thus, they don't work.
// 2: this will read the real disc even with iso mounted, it may be useful in the future.
