From the ESR release thread:

One is intended for launching games directly from dvd (but can also launch homebrew apps from DVDV discs, just SYSTEM.CNF and proper elf is needed) - "dvd direct" version .

The other is to launch elf files in either mcx:/BOOT/BOOT.ELF or mcx:/B?DATA-SYSTEM/BOOT.ELF - "mcard" version.

The third is "dvd direct off" version, which is almost the same as the "dvd direct" but will disable ESR after first full successful IOP reset (think about it as "mode 3" in hdloader. All should have similar compatibility (with obvious limitations for "off" version).

All will let you access dvdv patched, burned games (and not only games). You can use it to launch uLE with DVDV support, as well as HDLoader to install such games (then, the games will work under hdl without any problems - but you'll have to poweroff console and run hdloader again. It's because main program of hdloader uses the same memory space that my launcher, so running a game in hdl while ESR is active would cause freeze. In GUI version there will be option "Disable ESR after first IOP reset" that will solve also this problem).
