Short answer: FreeDVDBoot’s prebuilt ISOs support DVD Player 2.10 (named models only), 2.12 (regions U, J, G), and 3.04 (region M tested in emulator, other regions except J a guess). They do not support 3.00, 3.02, 2.14, or earlier versions outside that list. Slim consoles do not use this list at all — they use the universal Slim ISO regardless of version.

The supported three

• 2.10: certain models only. Working examples: SCPH-30001 R, SCPH-30000, SCPH-30004 R (specific ROMGEN codes in the README). SCPH-39004 listed as not working. Shared file with 2.12.
• 2.12: regions U, J, and G. Shared file with 2.10 (7,344,128 bytes).
• 3.04: region M tested in emulator only; README guesses most other regions EUMACDG except J will work with English set. Own file (1,370,112 bytes).

The unsupported versions, and why

• 3.00 / 3.02: the SCPH-500xx (v9/v10) versions. No payload in CTurt’s repository. YADE is reported to cover 3.00E (see the YADE note).
• 2.14: Sony patched the FreeDVDBoot vulnerability in 2.14 (README’s own words: “Sony actually patched this one in 2.14 lol”). Later Fat firmware is not a FreeDVDBoot target.
• 1.xx / 2.00 and early launch versions: outside the supported list; early Japanese launch models are reported with black screens or no support in the compatibility list.
• Slim versions (3.10 / 3.11 filesystem): these are Slim filesystem names in the repository, not Fat DVD Player versions — do not confuse them with the Fat list. Slims use the universal ISO.

How to find yours

Boot with no disc, press Triangle, read the DVD Player line — full steps in how to check. Record the version including its region letter: “3.04” alone is less useful than “3.04M”, and “2.10” alone is less useful than the model + ROMGEN for the named-model check.
