I hope that made sense.
I am not 100% sure of how a magic V handles booting DVD movies, I mostly use Apple Pro but I believe they work exactly the same, as far as reset button changing the chip modes.

This is good information. The magic V switchs modes with the eject button though just so you know. And yes if you just put a DVD movie in with out doing anything the PS2 will be in PS2 mode and not boot the DVD movie.... if the chip is not patching the bios like ihaveanosebleed said it will boot up like normal.
