PlayStation 2

Open PS2 Loader (OPL)

OPL is typically used to load game backups on the PS2. See the PS2-HOME Forums for resources on installing & running OPL.

Warning

OPL is sensitive to files being fragmented on USB drives and SD cards (MX4SIO/SIO2SD). This means that you should only write one ISO at a time!

Igir has a --writer-threads <threads> option to limit the number of files being written at once. You can use the option like this:

Replace the E:\ drive letter with wherever your USB drive is:

igir copy extract test clean ^
  --dat "Redump*.zip" ^
  --dat-name-regex '/playstation 2/i' ^
  --input "ISOs" ^
  --output "E:\DVD" ^
  --dir-letter ^
  --writer-threads 1

Replace the /Volumes/PS2 drive name with whatever your USB drive is named:

igir copy extract test clean \
  --dat "Redump*.zip" \
  --dat-name-regex '/playstation 2/i' \
  --input "ISOs/" \
  --output "/Volumes/PS2/DVD/" \
  --dir-letter \
  --writer-threads 1

Replace the /media/PS2 path with wherever your USB drive is mounted:

igir copy extract test clean \
  --dat "Redump*.zip" \
  --dat-name-regex '/playstation 2/i' \
  --input "ISOs/" \
  --output "/media/PS2/DVD/" \
  --dir-letter \
  --writer-threads 1
