Copstation and Paladin by Coldbird
On my quest for popstation converters i came across a classic one, from which i never heard before...
Copstation Mod v.2.21

I als found Paladin v1.3, which is a PAL to NTSC converter, check post #3 for that.

Code:
1

                .||              Coldbird Popstation Mod V2.21

          Coded and Maintained by Coldbird [vanburace@gmail.com]

Credits go to... [Dark_Alex] - for the Basic Idea and Conversion Method
                 [Tinnus]    - for the CDDA Fix - AKA TOC Converter
                 [Coldbird]  - for EVERYTHING else

          Now 3.03 OE-C (and newer) only! If you want to use this
          with a lower Firmware Version, extract the DATA.PSP from
          a BASE.PBP of your Choice and place it in the same Place
          as your PSX Game / Images.

          Thanks to Dark_Alex' 3.03 OE-C, no more KEYS.BIN is needed.

It's a command tool converter, usage:
For Packing           : popstation title gamecode compressionlevel inputfile.iso
For ISO-Extraction : popstation -iso outputfile.iso
Put files in same location as the image you want to convert.

Example:

Code:
1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
13

Writing Header...
Checking if TEKKEN.ccd exists...
Applying EBOOT Name Patch on PARAM.SFO [TEKKEN]...
Writing PARAM.SFO...
Writing Main-Executeable DATA.PSP...
  No External DATA.PSP Found - Including Internal DarkAlex DATA.PSP
Writing PSX ISO Header...
Writing Indexes...
Writing PSX CD Dump...
  Processing... [0554MB|0000MB]
Writing STARTDAT Header...
Writing P.O.P.S. Standard Logo...
Writing STARTDAT Footer...
Done.

It converts very quick, no fancy background, pics or movies in your converted eboot, just a basic start-up screen.

Only downside i found until now is that the converted eboots don't run on my PSPGO.
And i still have problems with popstation on the PSPGO because i don't have sound, only through my headphone :(

Coldbird was also working on Paladin, a Pal to NTSC converter but i wasn't able to find it :(

RE: Copstation and Paladin by Coldbird
There was only *one* popstation, just different interfaces.
There's now a multi-disc version - IDK whether this one incorporates that.
