It looks like Atari800XLFan (same one from this forum?) posted the question.

I thought I already mentioned it.

I've tested several times with with my retail NeoCD games and none of them would work on either of my three Dreamcasts using Neo4all/CD. I tested FFS, RBS, SS1, and LB2. In each case, I had to make a rip of the game to play it.

I was in the same situation as you, and planned to buy a whole load of cheap neocd games in anticipation of the emulator maturing. The emu remained inaccurate and retail games unplayable. So I just bought a 2 slot and some MVS carts.

Shit. So much for that. Thanks for saving me the trouble of testing it myself, kingbuzzo.

Bummer.

Did we ever find out WHY it won't play Retail Neo Geo Disks?
