How To Burn Ps3 Games To Bd Reporting
How to burn blu ray ps3 games and play it directly in ps3 without a mod chip? 10 answers 10. Report Abuse. Add a comment. A game copy software plus a blank dvd are capable to make it. I used a software to copy my ps3 games, and the sound and picture quality of the resulting copies are just like the originals’.
- PS3 was the first console to use blu ray, coupled with the fact it was a blu ray movie player helped to make it sell a lot. I want to see how well Sony can do launching a PlayStation that dosen't.
- Backup / Copy PS3 Games. It may take a while, so be patient as there is no progress bar reporting the whole process. After it is done, go to your home directory and you will see your new game iso. Step 2 - Burning The Games. Navigate to find your game iso on your computer. Insert the blank Blu-Ray disc.
The PlayStation 3, or PS3, can play DVDs and Blu-ray discs as an entertainment option. In the case of Blu-ray discs, the gaming system can play the discs directly. The system also plays regular DVDs, but requires a USB HD-DVD drive to play HD-DVDs because the laser is formatted to Blu-ray discs rather than HD-DVD discs.
Playing HD-DVDs
Connect the USB cable to the HD-DVD drive. The cable should come with the drive and generally will connect to the back of the drive. Push the cable into the drive where it is labeled “USB.”
Plug the other side of the USB cable into the PS3 system. Allow the PS3 to find the drive. If it requires installation of any information, it will install upon the first connection.
Put the HD-DVD into the drive. When the PS3 shows the disc in the drive, click on the drive by scrolling through the options with the controller and selecting “X.” The movie should start upon selection.
Playing Blu-ray Discs
Place the disc in the PS3 directly. The game system is already set up to read Blu-ray discs. The menu option should show “BD-ROM.”
Use the directional buttons on the game system controller and highlight “BD-ROM.”
Press “X” to start the movie. It should start automatically upon selection.
Seeing as most questions towards this subject are outdated (and yield little to any results), I merely want to know if it's possible to dump games using a blu-ray drive.
Does it depend on the game? Do the files need to be formatted in a certain way in order to use them with RPCS3? If so, how would one go about it?
I don't recall seeing these questions being asked, so if anyone could shed some light on this that would be very helpful!
Burn Ps3 Games To Dvd
If it isn't possible, maybe there could be a sticky to how to dump games for a newbee.
Thanks again for any potential response!
EDIT: It seem I was correct to think that some image burners/dumpers don't copy PS3 disc data over properly. I don't know the nitty gritty details, but Snakko was helpful enough to provide a basically revamped quick start guide:
Burn Ps3 Games Free
get a proper ISO, the 3k3y tool is kinda picky. I got good results with IsoBuster, but failed hard with IMGBURN. IsoBuster is shareware, but still can rip an ISO without registration key, so you should be good.
2) to get a proper ISO, you need a capable drive. If it's an LG BD burner, it's probably on Mediatek so it should work. Generally as long as you pop a disc in, and can read the file system (e.g. see the content of PS3_GAME , PNG images there are unencrypted) you should be good.
3) after you dump an ISO, check for a corresponding IRD for your GameID (http://jonnysp.bplaced.net/ is a good source for those), basically you need this file to get the disc encryption keys (IRD is a blueprint with encryption keys, files offsets and checksums and other stuffs, but for this purpose you only need the EC), so the patcher can write those and 'fool' the 3k3y tool.
4) open test_patcher, open the ISO file, open the IRD file (you should see the encryption key in the textbox, DON'T write or erase anything in there), then patch the ISO.
5) open the 3k3y tool, press the 1st button (rubik cube), open the iso, if the dump was done properly, it should start to decrypt it into a new file (same path as your ISO file, same name, but with '.dec.' in the middle, like GAME.ISO -> GAME.dec.ISO). It will take a little while, if everything goes right, you should see a green 'Success' in the log window.
I was also given a brief explanation as to what the problem was:
Those ISOs are basically standard ISOs, with just a bunch of crap written on a specific part of them (starting from block 3952, it adds stuff like the BCA, stuffs on the inner part of the disc that can't be usually read by a generic PC drive and other things, as a 'metadata' for the 3k3y tool itself).
A russian guy found out, around January of this year, how to decode the IRD files, extract the encryption key, and write it on a dumped iso, so the 3k3y tool 'accept' it as an one made by its tool (and that's the test_patcher), and then decrypts it.
TLDR: some image burning software doesn't copy over all the data on from a PS3 disc as it should. IMGburn for sure does not work. ISObuster has been tested to work (shareware, but it can burn/extract discs for free with no issue).
Ideally the quickstart should be updated with that quick disclaimer.
Once again HUGE thanks to Snakko for helping me out with this!
