Will the No Solder V5 boot DVD-R backups???

[Chow Yun Fat]

NightStalker.... you are the shit!!! I used the DVD-R/Dummy swap that you posted, and it works!!! The only problem I have now is that it seems that the movies wont work for some reason. I made the image with PrimoDVD using my Imported original Tekken 4, so I wander y the endings and begginings wont show.... O well... This'l hold me till I get my Pheonix 2 LE installed. Thanks a million man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I found out the version I made wiht the TDK using Primo dont have the movies, but the version using the Memorex and Nero works fine, loads faster, has better color and all of the moves. Thanks again NightStalker... you the man!!

You may be right, I have not seen this boot method
for DVDr. I will give this 'Updating codes' swap trick
a go!

Glad it worked guy's, happy burning

Hi, I am a bit confused with all this. I have a stealth 4 PnP v5 chip-no solder-chip and AR2 v2.12. I have the following backup titles:
1. NO-ONE LIVES FOREVER
2. GIANT CITIZAN KABUTO
3. SPIDERMAN THE MOVIE
4. SIMPSONS ROAD RAGE
5. 007 AGENT UNDER FIRE
6. VAMPIRE NIGHTS

I can only play Spiderman-Simpsons. They are less than 650MB, that is why i can play only these 2. Is there anything i can do to play the other titles?
cheers

I have seen what PJCLARK was talking about listed many times on different forum lists. There may be early release 2.03's that slipped through or something that do in fact work--but the general rule is you need prior to 2.03--1.9x seems to be the favorite.

You aren't using the standard swap method anyway. Maybe your way is in fact a work around for the versions that won't do it the normal way? Did you consider this before you fingered Clark?

Please make sure the info is correct before misleading the general public. the 1.7-2.02 has become the de facto standard for a reason--it is the typical solution that works 100% of the time.

if im reading this thread right im screwed because my gs2 is v 2.11???? thanks

Listen djb1436, Until you get your facts straight maybe you should just take a seat. The info i posted is absolutely correct concerning GS2 as well as the boot methods. As you can see from chows post it did work so i fail to see the problem. I didnt single out Pjclark or anyone else. Pjclark is a smart guy, i have read all his post, I simple posted a working swap method that he didnt know. Next time he may know something i dont, Thats what this forum is for. The boot method i posted has helped alot of people play there dvd-r backups that couldnt with the normal swap. If you are looking for someone to flame or are just having a bad day then go to some other site and start a argument but dont try to bash me for helping chow yun fat or any other member of this forum that has a problem.[list]

Hi Teo, Dvd rips are limited to a TOC of 640mb. If the rip is over this it simply will not load, my advise with this chip is to stick with direct backups, cd to cd-r, dvd to dvd-r and you wont have any problems.

No, you are not screwed, Use direct backups (cd to cd-r, dvd to dvd-r) along with the dvd-r boot method i posted and you will be fine.

Sorry guys I'm brand new here! Do DVD back-ups require a patch? I've heard so many probs regarding dvd rips, I figure it must be easier - TRUE OR FALSE?

[teo_hatz]

hi to all. I know that the No solder, Stealth 4 v5 will not boot DVD rips which r over 650MB. I have heard that you can combine this mod with others such as the PNPBOX to allow the use of 80 min CDR. Is it true?PNPBOX is the same as the NEOKEY SBOX? IF yes how is it done? THANKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
