Some PSP Betas

Hi all,
I have some PSP betas in DVD format and I'd like to know if is there a way to run them in a regular PSP.
Each DVD has some .IMG files and one .DAT file.
Thanks in advance,
Jose.

 

maybe on a 1.5 Psp with UMD emulator...

 

just to know, what games are those??

 

Excuse me but I can not make public the details.

 

If you open the dvd on a mac (and probally also possible on a pc) you can open the bin files. The bin file internals are exact the same as the data of an ripped umd. ... So I think it must be possible, however I never continued my quest for it

 

Some will run.
Some will not.
Without knowing the details, it's a crapshoot.

The only sure way is a debug or test station.

Good luck.

Hello, I have a debug unit to test these games, PM me for more info

I believe I could also convert them to run on a retail PSP with some modifications

Just drop me a PM if you'd like , thanks

 

Cool, I'd like to see how one of these units look like!

...and welcome to the boards, your nick looks quite familiar!

 

They look like mini-towers. Pics have been posted on assembler before.

Thanks a lot to all of you who have helped me.
It seems to be that one of the IMG files is an ISO archive that I can open with UMDGEN.
I'm now searching for a comercial PSP. I'll try to downgrade it to 1.0 firmware and see if the Beta simply runs on it.

 

Did you ever have any luck trying to get them to work?

 

Since you found a way to convert them in ISO files that are validated by UMDGEN, any psp that runs iso files will run them : a 1.0 won't read iso, only very early EBOOTs. Use Devhook or one of Dark Alex's modified firmware to run them, that's all.

 

Unffortunately no...
