No ISO files are shared here. The only things added are info from dumps done from the physical media.

Take the following with a grain of salt since I'm more than a few beers deep (and if I'm mistaken please correct me other dumpers).

MPF uses hashes, not the disc name to compare against dumped discs in the db. If you have the option enabled to display the submission info form and some fields are filled in the disc has already been dumped.

If the disc has already been dumped you would submit the proper info to the forum in the Verifications section and attach the logs. Verifications are important and welcomed because it ensures the dumps in the db are correct.

No. Only good dumps are added.

If I'm understanding you correctly it's scanning .cab files and the like. There's virtually no reason to do this that I'm aware of and there's an option to disable it.

If you have the copy protection scan enabled in MPF it uses a modified version of Burnout. ProID is better to use in general. When I dump discs I do a sector scan in ProID then a file scan after installing (I mainly dump PC games). There are many times where the sector scan will not show any protection but the file scan will.

Only dumps made by the drive models listed on the wiki page will be accepted due to those drives being able to read data others don't. There are certain exceptions for discs that use physical ring protection and other specific cases but in general if the drive isn't listed on the wiki it's a no-go.

ISOs are not hosted or shared here.

Non-public systems like Wii U are only visible to those with dumper status. Only good dump info is kept, not bad.

I'm not a Sony expert but looking at the dumping guides for PS2 and PSP there are files within the image that contain version numbers so those are used.

PSX likely doesn't have files explicitly listing version numbers like the other systems so they use the more generic "Rev" versioning.

Someone more knowledgeable could give you a better answer though.

It sounds like OP is referring to the console output message in DICUI before the submission info form pops up.

I know when dumping PC stuff it could take ages sometimes with that being the last message displayed due to DICUI doing protection scans. Not sure if it even scans PS2 stuff for protections as I don't know much about PS2 discs. That protection scan can be disabled though, and I disabled it because I find protectionID to be more reliable and much quicker than BurnOut which DICUI uses.

Runs fine in mednafen.

I second this. I updated to the latest DIC version last night and wasted 10 mins waiting for the cab scanning which isn't really needed. I'd say leave it off by default and add a flag for those who want to enable it.

We don't provide downloads of games nor discuss where to get them. This site is used to document information from dumps people do from the original media.
