how do I patch backups that are in the cue/bin format?
The ESR disc patcher GUI v0.24a will patch .bin files.
Its in the ESR public beta sticky.
I keep getting an error message "no udf descriptor"
another question is, for a mds and iso pair, can i delete the mds file and just burn the iso? or is the mds file needed for something?
You're trying to patch backups of CDs, aren't you? Sorry, the patcher and ESR do not support CDs.
oh, i see. so is there a way to run cd games with esr?
and for a mds and iso pair, can i delete the mds file and just burn the iso? or is the mds file needed for something?
No. The ESR method of tricking the PS2 into allowing access to a burned game disc can only be applied to DVD discs, since the trick makes the CDVD mechacon 'believe' that the disc is a DVD-Video movie. But there is no way to make it accept a CD as such a movie, since the basic media type is wrong.Quote:

for multilayer backups (dvd9), is the mds file needed as it contains the layerbreak info?
Yes it is needed for Dual layer backups. You select the .mds with Imgburn.Quote:

Those discs are still outrageously priced.
At my regular supplier:
Verbatim 4x DL DVD-R discs cost 30 SEK per 1
Verbatim 16x non-DL DVD-R discs cost 345 SEK per 100
I could accept a price twice as high as the non-DL discs, since that matches the on-disc storage space, but a price factor of 8.7 is just too much.
