When you select any of the VideoNow systems in the MPF dropdown, the /vn, /vnc, and /vnx flags are not correctly added to the DIC command line. Dumps without these flags are not complete and thus not admissable to Redump.

Looks like this section needs to add the relevant flags for each:

This is intentional as those flags do not function as intended according to people who know far more than I do. I will re-enable those flags once they are fixed.

I had some dumps denied for the flag missing, and was told to redo them with the relevant flag, so I don't know what's going on. Is there some documentation or a forum thread or something you can link about this?

As far as I know, it's mentioned a couple of times in the official DiscImageCreator thread on Redump. Part of the problem is that the value is not static for any of those and therefore needs two dumps in a row to get the value. Feel free to ask on the official thread: http://forum.redump.org/topic/10483/discimagecreator/
