The .IFO files are different.
The .ISO files segaflip posted were mastered by Nero.
In my brief experience with Nero (and one of the reasons I no longer use Nero)
I found that Nero will in some cases change an .IFO file it doesn't like for whatever reason.
Worse yet, it won't ask your permission first, it won't tell you it's changing the file, and it won't freshen the file's timestamp to indicate it's been modified.
Nero's authors should be ashamed.
I suspect (but cannot prove) that's what happened with segaflip's EditDroid set.
segaflip has stated he received the discs via trade.
I think somebody, somewhere along the line, downloaded the myspleen files, burned them with Nero, and Nero changed the .IFO files, before they ended up in segaflip's hands.
Of course there's no guarantee the myspleen files match the EditDroid masters either. They might have been changed.
And here's a bit more evidence against Nero:
The Japanese Special Collection discs segaflip sent me were mastered by Nero.
segaflip posted Special Collection .SFV checksums (presumably generated from original discs sent by dark_jedi)
but the .IFO checksums don't match the Nero copies (changed by Nero, I suspect) which segaflip sent to me.
segaflip's a nice guy and all, but he might consider using better software than Nero if he cares about checksums like he's stated previously.
