Any news for a FreeDVDBoot port for 3.00A?
I hate to break it for you, but FreeDVDBoot hasn't seen any updates since 2020 and it's safe to say that the project was abandoned :(

Can you burn a patched game image of a game into a DVD to boot it with Free McBoot?

Brand new
The FreeDVDBoot (FDVDB) hack is more hit or miss than FreeMCBoot (FMCB). It all depends on your version information. I used it to install FMCB onto a memory card.

I just bought this game shark device for my ps1, does it allow me to play imports? If it can, how do I do it and if no what other device can I buy to play imports on my ps1?
Personally, I use a memory card with FreePSXBoot installed, though you will of course need a way to get FreePSXBoot onto the memory card in the first place (I used a PS2 and FreeDVDBoot).

Any way to recover Memory Card data?
If you your PlayStation doesn't have a modchip you can also use the Memory Card manager in Unirom. Just get the FreePSXBoot version into a different memory card, boot to Unirom and the manager will show all saves, even the deleted ones, if they are still on the card. Then you can put the cursor over them and choose "undelete".

I have 80+ PS1 bootlegs from the early 2000s and need help (more in comments)
you could use FreePSXBoot to softmod it, here’s the github.

how does region lock work?
If you don't want to chip your console just get a Memory Card exploit like Unirom+FreePSXBoot or TonyHax+FreePSXBoot, it's basically the modern day replacement for the swap trick. Easier, more reliable and removes some other types of piracy protection from various games.

Ask HN: What weird technical scene are you fond/part of?
Most of the SDK has been tested and confirmed to be fully functional on real hardware, but there is some copy protection you will have to get around in order to run arbitrary software on a PS1. The traditional solution is to perform disc swapping or install a modchip, but nowadays we also have softmods [1] that make the process as easy as inserting a specially formatted memory card (which can be prepared using a PS2, or even a PS1 by swapping discs).
You are not required to use CDs either. With the help of some code and linker script magic, you can build an image that can be booted directly from a cheat cartridge (or simply a parallel EEPROM) connected to the console's expansion bus, bypassing the copy protection checks entirely. There are also debugging tools that, once loaded, let you download an executable into RAM for quick testing and manage memory cards using a modified serial cable [2].
