PS1 backups on PS3 Question

I was just wondering. I see alot of posts talking about TOC sizes of games and i wanted to know what a good size PS1 game would help me boot my backup copy of FF7? The only game i have that comes close is Soul Reaver 1 and its not as big as FF7 so it will boot but freeze.

Can anyone point me in the right direction as to PS1 game TOC sizes or....?

Its not possible to run backups of any kind other than video files on the PS3 as of yet.

YES IT IS, If you swap them.

ANYWAYS, I suggest you just go buy FFVII as I use disc 1 to boot all my backups
*** POST UPDATE ***
just as an additional statement, TOC (table of contents), doesnt matter when booting from an ISO, only disc swaps.

YES it is possible to play backed up PS2 games using the swap method as suggested by Zeruth,also you say it is only possible to play backed up video file,what about backed up audio CDs they can be played as well.

Well that is quite obvious that you can play audio cd's as everyone in the world makes their own audio cd's. Not everyone knows how to make or convert their own movies or video files. Its possible to play PS2 backups but I read that breaker pro doesnt work using drwoogies method of opening the PS3 up.

He said PSX backups, not PS2.

I was refereing to your comment.
"Its not possible to run backups of any kind other than video files."
Which is blatantly untrue.
