=================================================
About the PS1 CUE support for games with AUDIO tracks:

1) mM processes the .CUE file and stores the ATAPI 0x43 response in LV2 memory at 0x7FF000. For example the NFS:Porsche Unleashed:

Code:

HEADER: 00 82 01 0F
===================
TRK#01: 00 14 01 00 00 00 00 00
TRK#02: 00 10 02 00 00 02 0C 92
TRK#03: 00 10 03 00 00 02 2D 7C
TRK#04: 00 10 04 00 00 02 53 2D
TRK#05: 00 10 05 00 00 02 7D 30
TRK#06: 00 10 06 00 00 02 A0 C7
TRK#07: 00 10 07 00 00 02 C8 32
TRK#08: 00 10 08 00 00 02 F1 A2
TRK#09: 00 10 09 00 00 03 1A 4D
TRK#0A: 00 10 0A 00 00 03 43 AF
TRK#0B: 00 10 0B 00 00 03 70 17
TRK#0C: 00 10 0C 00 00 03 9C D1
TRK#0D: 00 10 0D 00 00 03 C8 48
TRK#0E: 00 10 0E 00 00 03 F2 04
TRK#0F: 00 10 0F 00 00 04 1F 22
TRK#10: 00 10 AA 00 00 04 43 88
===================

The LBA boundary after the last track is calculated using the size of the BIN and the sector size, so the CUE directive REM LEAD-OUT MM:SS:FF is not necessary.

It supports both CUE information with PREGAP included or not and FILE directive is ignored, so don't bother to manually edit your CUE files. For example here are two different variants of a CUE file for NFS, which produce the same binary payload for the ATAPI response:

Without PREGAP directive:

Code:

FILE "Need for Speed Porsche.BIN" BINARY
  TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
  TRACK 02 AUDIO
    INDEX 01 29:52:40
  TRACK 03 AUDIO
    INDEX 01 31:44:66
  TRACK 04 AUDIO
    INDEX 01 33:53:40
  TRACK 05 AUDIO
    INDEX 01 36:16:70

  TRACK 15 AUDIO
    INDEX 01 60:03:39

With PREGAP directive:

Code:

FILE "Need for Speed Porsche.BIN" BINARY
  TRACK 01 MODE2/2352
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
  TRACK 02 AUDIO

    INDEX 01 57:27:39
  TRACK 15 AUDIO
    INDEX 00 59:59:39
    INDEX 01 60:01:39

2) Adds syscall37 to handle copying of the response from lv2 memory to the ps1_emu:

Code:

mflr      r0                //    7C 08 02 A6
std       r31, 0xA8(r1)        //    FB E1 00 A8
std       r0, 0xC0(r1)        //    F8 01 00 C0

li        r31, 1            //    3B E0 00 01
sldi      r31, r31, 63        //    7B FF F8 06
oris      r31, r31, 0x7F    //    67 FF 00 7F
ori       r31, r31, 0xF000    //    63 FF F0 00

ld        r3, 0(r31)        //    E8 7F 00 00 //copy the binary CUE info
std       r3, 0(r7)         //    F8 67 00 00 //to the receiving buffer of ps1_emu
...
ld        r3, 0x80(r31)        //    E8 7F 00 80 //for as many tracks as needed
std       r3, 0x80(r7)         //    F8 67 00 80 //no loop used so only 1 register needed (r31)

li        r3, 0                //    38 60 00 00
ld        r0, 0xC0(r1)        //    E8 01 00 C0
ld        r31, 0xA8(r1)        //    EB E1 00 A8
mtlr      r0                //    7C 08 03 A6
addi      r1, r1, 0xB0        //    38 21 00 B0
blr                            //    4E 80 00 20

3) In the patched ps1_emu.self the extended ATAPI 0x43 request is redirected to syscall37 and proper track information is returned (this version of the patched ps1 emulator is not compatible with Iris).

mM will accept ISO/BIN/MDF/IMG files with or without an accompanying CUE file. In case of no cue - mM will create a 'data-track-only' payload. For best compatibility always use CUE files with your images.

This is still a dirty way of enhancing the compatibility, but will do for now. Probably Estwald with come up with a much better solution very soon, because this one is limited to the ps1_emu.self only and multidisc games with audio tracks may have issues with the in-game CDA playback when switching to disc 2/3/4.

=================================================

I'll appreciate any reports of games which had issues and now are fixed.

Tested already: NFS:Porsche, NFS4, Wipeout 3, GTA:London - all work with in-game CDA audio.

i still think by 4.20, everything's gonna be nigh perfect with this. i'm sure it'll act just like disk backups.

you think it's possible to have quit to multiman? is it possible to edit those menus?

i think it'd be tight cause i'm usually playing about 3 games at once which is probably why i rarely finish games.

ive tried imgburn and alcohol, both fail saying illegal mode for this track

when i navigate to my img/ccd/cue it does not seem to be recognized in the mM xmb. also tried running out of mMOS to no avail.

you've refreshed and everything?

i'd put like 10 bucks down on that i've run an img file before since it is one of the images that is said to be supported.

what do you mean it's not recognized? like, you don't see it at all?

in mM xmb, it isnt there. in mmos i see it, but it is 'unsupported'

refreshed and everything.

Because i have many friends that want updates and they are on very old versions and using the upd won´t work.

And i myself am on 4.18 and the upd didn´t work for me neither.

I see, the reason why I asked, was because a few weeks back, I saw vendors at flea markets selling disks with PS3 toolkits at about $5.00 a disc. I found that strange. I asked the Asian vendor what was the toolkit all about, and though he had a very difficult to understand accent, I was able to comprehend that it had lots of recent updates for PS3 homebrew apps and etc.

So I could understand those who want a full version of mM that now supports PSX ISOs, so they can update their flea market PS3 toolkits. $$

multiMAN_ver_04.18.00_BASE_CEX.pkg there's the base, delete yours and install that.. then install the latest one.

Dean has stated in the 4.19.00 thread that it (4.19.02) can be installed over 4.16.XX so I figured his (sabinswe) request wasn't much different

....swe @ the end of my name means that i am from Sweden so that kind of business is not possible here.

It´s reserved for "markets" in Asia i believe.

I want a FULL version simply for it´s convinence.

........all the way to
Die Hard Trilogy (USA) (v1.1) (Track 21).bin

so is this the way it should be so it can work properly via Multiman?

have you gotten this to work? i tried making a single bin, but it always fails saying illegal mode for this track. any other game ive found like this converts fine.

Get two free apps: DAEMON TOOLS LITE and IMGBURN.

1. mount the CUE file with DAEMON TOOLS LITE--it will create a fake Disc Drive on your PC with the game mounted.
2. then open IMGBURN and select create Image file from DISC. Be sure to select extension .BIN.
3. It should create a single BIN and CUE file.
4. this should take about 5 minutes to complete without wasting a CD-R.

Thanks again Dean, another great update.

My quesiton is, when will or how do I update the RetroArch version that is available in MM? I think it's been updated a few times past the one that shows available for download.
