Wow. I'm nowhere near all the way through that thread (and I'm going to have to go through the whole thing in order to understand what's going on better), but getting in touch with them sounds like it would be an excellent idea.

Need more time to go through it all, but one thing stands out in that second link:

"This dumping process uses a custom program loaded through the PAC-S1/S10 module to read the disk contents and stream them over the controller port to a computer."

I'd like to know what it is that he's sending out over the controller port. Trying to send video out that way just seems painful if not impossible, but I can't understand why executable code or data stored on the disc would be moved over that path if it could just be read from the disk.

Again, quick skim, may be missing out on something, but am curious about that statement.
