todo:

  • a lot of the stuff here should have their own fields in DoM and should be automatically checked
  • describe how to transcribe data from PCBs (e.g. chip serials, PCB serials, holes that tell you the manufacturing date(?), components on the board)
  • file attachments in PSN dats are the response header of the file download. If !response-header-retrieved-through-2nd-download is in the Comment+, that means that another download was started to get the header.
  • Sony - PlayStation Portable (UMD Music) and Sony - PlayStation Portable (UMD Video): some/all dumps are decrypted, rather than proper encrypted dumps, plus some/all of them have 0 byte DATA.BIN and EBOOT.BIN files in PSP_GAME/SYSDIR/UPDATE (those files should contain data). todo: write a script to check which ones have these problems, then mark them as such in DoM. An old dumping tool, fastloader or umddumper or something, may be able to make proper dumps, on old PSP firmwares.
