Perfect dumping of PSP discs with video partitions? (Hi from Redump!)

Post by dizzzy »

Hi guys, I'm dumping discs for redump.org preservation project. We preserved PERFECT dumps of discs for our dat.

We use PSP Filer as a rule for all our PSP dumps because the app dumps all game UMDs perfectly.

However there are a few oddities which we are unable to dump perfectly with PSP Filer because they have video partitions.

Take for example Stealth / WipeOut demo UMD disc:

Dumping this will only result in the demo being dumped - not the perfect, full UMD disc. We are aware of the dumping method with UMD Killer to get the video part as well, but then we're left with two ISOs, one for each part of the disc - and therefore - not a perfect, single iso dump (further discussion here).

I would like to get in touch with the PSP Filer dev hoping he can implement perfect dumping for discs like Stealth/Wipeout for the sake of perfect preservation, who should I reach out to? Thanks in advance :)

Thank you for your reply. Redump is for perfect preservations, not imperfect scene hacks. I don't mean to be demeaning, but this seems like the easiest explanation.

I don't mean to be "that guy" but isn't hosting this content illegal?
Does it quit? If not, then it's legit... Too legit.

Redump.org does not host roms, it only hosts checksums as a database. So for example, you can know if you backed up your own disc correctly or identify software revisions as well. It's a great tool for collecting.

I don't really see the point in doing this.

It's not like UMD has been a successful video format since it was only available for PSP. And since the film is available on Blu-ray Disc (in much better quality), you can always convert it for mobile devices and watch it on PSP/PS Vita/smartphones etc.

Can't you just connect a PSP via USB and rip the ISO with a PC? Good luck getting in contact with the developer of PSP Filer, because the last version was released almost 9 years ago.

I want to be perfectly clear that I don't care about watching the film. I only care about doing a perfect dump of the disc image for preservation.

If anyone knows the developer and can put me in touch that would be great. "Just buy the Blu-Ray bro" or "download scene release, it's good enough!" is not helpful towards my goal.. I tried to make this clear, so I'm reiterating again.

Well, if you want to contact him, his donations page is still online: http://www.geocities.jp/mediumgauge/
His mail adress is right there. But you should already know that, since the link is in the changelog of PSP Filer.
