Black screen on CD2DVD Boot

[AuraDragon]

Okay, so I converted a CD in to a DVD and when ever it boots thanks to Swap Magic (3.6) I get a black screen, according to what I have read that is caused by either the lack of a Dummy File or because it uses a fixed LBA Table, now, I am guessing it is the latter but I don't know how to fix the LBA, the game is called Winback

Any tips, ideas, or guides on how to fix this problem?

I tried to convert NBA Street from a CD to DVD, I get all different colors (Purple, Blue, Red, Gray and then White) and then it hangs. I'm not sure what the issue is, or where to go to look at the LBA table or whatever, but, I'm kinda in the same boat as you, man.

I have Winback, so when I get time I will convert and see what I encounter and get back to you.

You wouldn't be able to helo me out with my NBA Street problem...would you?

if not... that's cool, man...it's just bothering me that the first NBA Street was put on a CD and my PS2 sounds like it's gonna not last too long if I tried to play it.

Thanks

I was just looking now through my old games, I am not sure if I have that one or not.

But I will let you know, probably won't be back on til tomorrow night or next day. I have a long day tomorrow.

Okay, thanks for the help Windrider, I'm sure the game would work if you just used a CD, but my PS2 won't read CDs so I need to convert it to DVD, can you try that?

Hey, I tried to rebuild the ISO and these are the differences in the LBA Table:

Going to try to crack the LBA Table code to make my file insertion work.

Of course, ffgriever would probably have known what to do right off the bat.

Ok cause I tried every which way of converting this to DVD and still get "Black screen" also.

@ mprtcs316

I successfully converted NBA Street to a DVD and used ESR to load it.

I loaded the .bin image in ISObuster 2
Then selected all files, extracted to a folder
Ran DVDScanlite 3.7 ( I actually used CMP 1.1, stands for "Console Media Patcher)
Then I opened Nero Burning ROM
select DVD > UDF-ISO then select NEW
Opened the Folder in which all the NBA Street files were in

I then selected to burn to image instead of too disc, saved it as an ISO image

Patched it with the esr Disc patcher and burned it with imgburn on Sony DVD-R at 4x

I basically followed this tutorial with a few changes.

Just to make sure I have the same game
Its NTSC SLUS_201.87

@windrider42

Yeah, I got it working now, turns out I had the files in the wrong order on my burned disc. :-x (is embarassed)

[windrider42]

no worries, these things happen. We learn from them.
