After lots of trial and error i've finally figured out how to play ps1 back ups on my ps3 super slim! its pretty easy just do what i did in the video. I figured this out myself!





Also from MaXsPoT: Playing PS1 Copy Games on Unmodded PS3 Super Slim - Disk Swap

Here is a video demonstration of playing copied Crash Bandicoot 3 PS1 game on unmodded PS3 super slim.

Here's a method of booting a copy of a PS1 game without modding the PS3 Super Slim. Just simple swapping.

Sorry for the bad quality, there was something wrong with the camera's settings.

Download: Iris Manager v2.16 for v4.XX PS3 CFW / Iris Manager v2.16 for v4.XX PS3 CFW (Mirror) / Iris Manager v2.16 for v4.XX PS3 CFW (Mirror #2) / GIT

To quote, roughly translated: v2.16 Changelog:

• NOTE: This is an evaluation version: if it does not work, let me know and tell me which version of CFW you are using and at what point is failing
  
• New payload v8 that deletes syscall 36 and use syscall 8 in its place for the redirections.
  
• Added Multiman method for disc-less from /app_home (thanks to DeanK for commenting how it works). This increases the compatibility.
  

Everything is working fine so far (FTP, PS1, PS3, COPY/DELETE etc).

To quote, roughly translated: Well, then here goes: I have included notes (many) so you have any idea what I've played and that: basically control power off by temperature (90 seconds above 79 degrees) and idle time (60 minutes without touching the pad and provided they are not doing file transfers that we can touch morality) is in routine pad.c reading pad

I think it basically means operation: for not being overloaded reading, I do that every 16 tics read the timer and temperature using syscall, do the necessary checks and if the old timer is not zero and go overtime, catapum...
