noisey ps2 for CD games

The PS2 is reading the rip contents out of their normal order which is why you're getting all that action. Appearantly (and I think you can find the orignal post here), when a game is ripped, the contents are "remixed" so to speak, so that they dont sit in the original order, so I guess the ps2 has to go and find that out of order data - hence the excruciating sounds eminating from your PS2.

FINALLY!!

Sometimes I get tired of repeating myself. Thank you ED! for posting this info. I have stated this many times before.

Here is what happens:

Most dvd game files are put in an order for best laser tracking. Not all games are like this though. GTA for one is a game that requires the entire disc for gameplay. Thus it gets some of the worst noise when it is ripped onto a cdr.

When ripping a game you can put the game back into the same order of the orginal dvd allowing for less noise on a cd laser. On the other hand some game makers were lazy and didnt put the dvd game together in a proper order in the fist place so you still may wind up with a noisy dvdrip cd game.
