Silver Alicorn posted:PS1 discs have a particular track that “wobbles” in a few spots. the laser can detect and report that is is compensating for wobble. the wobble has to be part of the mastering process and writable cds don’t have it so they can’t run. yeah the wobble groove is within the first few sectors of the disc so commodity burners can’t replicate it. if my memory serves the wobble groove contains whatever region code and mod chips just injects the expected signal at the right time
