Neither of those is intended for running backups. All any form of FMCB will do for you is to let you launch a PS2 homebrew elf file.Quote:

It is only that patch which can make the mechacon processor inside the CDVD drive of the PS2 believe that this DVD-R game backup is a DVD-Video, and thus legal for reading. And then ESR steps in and makes the real PS2 processors believe that this disc with DVD-Video filesystem on it is in fact a normal DVDROM game disc.
There is no way for any software to make a DVD-R disc in pure DVDROM format readable on an unmodded PS2. The mechacon will always reject it, and there is no way to access its programming. So if you tried such unpatched DVDROM backup discs with ESR, you weren't even giving it a chance to work.
