I have a disc called PSX-treme which works well on the PSOne model. Basically it boots up and then you switch the disc. It comes with a pre made tab to hold the lid button on.
Not all Verbatim discs are produced by MMC. CD-R discs are not the same quality as the originals, Imation was made by Moser Baer originally. TY have been sold to CMC, crappy CD-R do exists in the past. It was the Onechip that alters the BIOS to force NTSC games. older CD-RW burners can burn at very low speed, modern ones don't burn slower anymore.
Not only UniROM is an option but theres also an alternate firmware flash from NO$PSX called the NO$PSX Kernal Clone, which i had more success in booting games both burned, import and some HK Silvers (the factory stamped pirate discs) on my console. The big issue with that firmware flash is its pretty picky with carts to flash some will work (like my Mini Goldfinger) and some will try to flash and brick the device. As an added bonus it can also manage memory card saves & play VCDs. As for CD-Rs, i feel like the quality CD-Rs from back in the day could be easily bought but nowadays unless you go out and get Taiyo Yuden discs (hopefully without running into fake TYs), ALOT of CD-R brands are completely hit & miss and more miss than anything, mostly with the dye used in modern CD-Rs just dont play nice in PSX systems.
That is a shame to hear. I haven't had any issues unless the laser in the console has been weak and struggles to read Burned Media. The method I show you in this video, is one I have used since 1998 and I have done this on virtually every different Model of PS1 Console (SCPH-100X up to and including the PSOne SCPH-10X).
@@DaveDoc1984 yep it’s all luck, it’s all about the combination of the quality of your blank media and the quality of your burner, if both are good you can actually burn at higher speeds and not have an issue. All burning at lower speeds does is compensate for bad media and or bad burner.
So, if after the final swap, it starts rapidly alternating between the two speeds (almost like revving an engine), what does that mean? Did I mess up a swap or is the disc itself bad?
Could be a bad Disc. Re-burn the game at the slowest possible speed on high quality media. It could also be an issue with the laser itself (laser intensity might need to be tweaked slightly or if a 1000 Series Bias and Gain control might need to be set). Or it could just be the Laser itself is wearing out.
might be having problems reading the disc. if you get to the second swap, tho, that's a promising sign. I'd try again a few times. Might give a few potentiometer adjustment vids a view, too. Not as scary as it seems and can make a huge difference playing backup games.
The Verbatim you have isn't the same as the real Verbatim You have the "Extra protection" discs but they're actually made by CMC Magnetics and this is why you have issues with it. If you'd use AZO CD-Rs you won't have any problems with them. However you can't see the labels on the AZO CDs because they aren't white
I've always had my ps1 chipped and my copy games have always worked but I havent played it for a for years and now they're not working I've tried the disc swap but the discs won't spin if the lid is open 😭
Hi , I've got a Modded slim ps2 , and I recently burned A ps1 game on CD-R , once inserted , the disc icon shows without error but once I launch the CD , it brings me back to the dashboard menu .do you have any idea?
Do you have a definite answer to tell me what's the best type of modchip to install for the PS1 console to read copied games in all types of brands of CD-R discs?
@@DaveDoc1984 Ok. And how about the Verbatim brand type of CD-R discs? Does the Verbatim brand type of CD-R discs work with the Multi Mode modchip installed with the PS1 console as well?
@@pkzadam115able Verbatim discs work with MM3 but the console laser may have a hard time reading them. It’s not the modchip that determines whether a type of CD-R will work.
@@DaveDoc1984 Ok then does this mean that I basically need to install a different laser if I decide to make the PS1 to play with the copied games with the Verbatim brand type of CD-R discs?
Depends what burning program You used .some are Better than others. I used to use Nero burning Rom and dvd. between 2 speed and 4 speed depending on the game Phillips CD-ROM were the best or max well at a push . Data right Grey DVD’r for burning games
How does that work? the console will do an ADDITIONAL check for the Region code at the PlayStation screen? Unless A) You have one of the 1000 series machines that didn't have this additional check or B) you wait for the additional check to happen [you know the precise moment it does this] and then you swap the backup disc in then.
Emulation for the Playstation is on the whole , very good. Nothing beats actually turning your Ps1 on and hearing that dooo dooo dooo though. I've played quite a few PS1 games on an emu that played excellently but I still go back to my console. I have the PSIO. It rocks.
This wont work. The console will still have the copy and region protection in place. You need to have a modchip installed or use a cartridge such as Smart Cartridge or one flashed with UniROM
Funny enough, those speeds actually are called 1x and 2x.
Thank you for pointing that out.
Remember getting hold of a copy of Gran Turismo before it was realised in the UK. Happy days.
Having the Japanese copy of tekken 3 around 5 months before it came out over here in the uk 😁
I actually remember this Holy SH*T nostalgia hahah

True, but modern burners are more precise than older ones

With NO$PSX Kernal which I managed to flash onto a Cartridge, it would only allow me to boot original games on a PS1 with no ModChip. Is that normal?
Tried disc swapping but my console tried to boot the back up but it glitches every time and shows glitches graphics and freezes

For PS1 backups 650mb CD-Rs work better than 700mb CD-Rs.
Except for the fact some games won't fit onto a 650mb CD-R.... For example Gran Turismo is 670mb's in size. Gran Turismo 2 is 675mb's.
@@DaveDoc1984 Yes, but the majority do fit on to a 650mb CD-R... The laser struggles less when reading a 650mb CD-R.
The quality of the burner you use makes a huge difference, only 1 out of my 5 burners can burn something the ps1 can read at any speed.
True I must have been lucky that my relatively modern Burner worked even at its lowest speed.

I use to do this back in the day, but it wears and tears your console over time, a mod chip would be safer.
@@jglg7238 yep completely agree with that. Modchip is the way to go if you don’t want to put an XStation ODE into the console.
Can anyone help i have the 1001 and it stays on the play station screen black one

hello my friend i have slim case modcip ps1 but resident evil 3 japanese zone code does not open my original game what could be the reason? thank you
What region is the console you are trying to use? PSOne (Year 2000 re-design of the PS1?)
wait so do you have to be mod chipped to do this?
No. See my video where I show the disc swapping technique I’ve used for about 25 years.

Multi Mode 3 should work for most. Taio Yuden discs are best.

Is that anti-piracy or just a backup disc?
I don’t know what you are asking here?
Hi which cds should I use to play Playstation 1 backups please
Discs manufactured by Taiyo Yuden.
@@DaveDoc1984 I don't know where I could get those kind from
@@jessejones1783 eBay is where I got mine from. They are JVC for Professional Use CD-R's.
So i have to have a modded ps1 to play a ps1 game that was burned on a normal cd-r/dvd/cd?
I have a 9002 scph pal with no scart/parallel out.
Will a game work on it with no mods?
Look for FreePSXBoot
Is that a software that i have to mod in my console?
Wait... is it even possible to play a burned ps1 game without any mods,or a og ps1 game?
I just wait for the PlayStation logo to come up and swap to my backup disk
How does that work? the console will do an ADDITIONAL check for the Region code at the PlayStation screen? Unless A) You have one of the 1000 series machines that didn't have this additional check or B) you wait for the additional check to happen [you know the precise moment it does this] and then you swap the backup disc in then.
Dave's Game Room because I discovered my machine was actually hard modded. But it had been that long ago I’d forgotten 🙄😂
Is this metod will destroy the playstation hardware?
If done badly too many times, yes it could damage the console but... its not longer necessary. Look at FreePSXBoot.....
For me the best working burn speed was between 14x and 16x
Opc
They sold these discs here In Ireland
Stealth Chip Still working on mine lol
wtf is a tayoyewden disc?
@@mmo4754 taiyo yuden is a manufacturer of CD-R’s
wow it worked
I don't really see the point of disc swapping, if you already have the game why swap ???
I don't understand your question? If you have a backup copy of a game or an Import and your PlayStation isn't mod chipped... you can't play that game.
You can use it to play any rom, it’s not the same game
*people like to swap discs because they are bored with a game*
I want to have a ps1
swap kinda sucks on ps1, its works tho
Why solder when u can just emulate ps1 games these days without even needing the console 🤔
Because I want to use the real hardware. Emulation is far from 100%.

The only way to get the free ISO is to learn Russian and visit their many torrent forums
Not if you know where to look ;) I can't tell you of course.
Bruh 10mins before you made it to the dang console.
What are you talking about here… Bruh.
