Mednafen 0.9.31-WIP [message #3171] Fri, 06 September 2013 01:56 Go to next message

Especially notable changes include:
  • Experimental CloneCD CD image support. The base part of the CCD/SUB/IMG filenames should match, and the file extensions should match in case(as in, upper or lower). Many CloneCD-format rips floating around on the Internet have unusable garbage Q subchannel data(from faulty ripping software, or faulty drives, I'm not sure), and Mednafen will refuse to use such a rip when it is detected(though detection isn't guaranteed).
  • Improved PS1 CPU emulation timing accuracy; fixes problems with "Final Fantasy Tactics", "Battle Arena Toshinden", "Zero Divide", "NBA Jam Extreme", "Tiny Toon Adventures - Plucky's Big Adventure", "Eldergate", "Ballblazer Champions", and "Incredible Crisis".
  • Misc PS1 bug fixes; fixes problems with "Tetris with Cardcaptor Sakura", "Arcade Party Pak", and "Crash Team Racing".
  • Optimized the PS1 MDEC decoding IDCT code.
  • Improved PS1 multitap emulation accuracy; The "Tales of [...]" games will now work properly when multitap is enabled.
  • Changed how virtual ports are mapped when PS1 multitap emulation is enabled, to make more sense. See the included PSX module documentation for more details.
  • Improved Virtual Boy noise emulation accuracy; fixes the digital sample playback in "Hyper Fighting".
  • Deprecated command-line option "-loadcd", and added command-line option "-physcd".

Thanks for the update.
Now the parameter to start a letter of CD/DVD drive works correctly.

Thanks for the update. Unfortunately, I'm still getting the error about the physical CD when using "-physcd" on Mac:

Error opening CD: Error reading disc TOC.

The command line isn't outputting much useful information. Is there a switch I can pass to Mednafen or a log I can upload that would provide more info for you to work with? It's possible that libcdio is the problem, but a definitive answer would be nice. Then I would know which developer to send a bug report to. Smile

Do the libcdio utilities "cd-drive" and "cd-info" work ok?

Looking at that, and the libcdio source code, I don't think libcdio properly/fully supports CD/DVD drives under OS X.

I finally got around to submitting a bug report for libcdio. Thanks for your help.
