      Regarding Dreamcast,
      Is there any way to compile multi disk games, such as Skies of Arcadia or Shenmue, into the same file? Or organize it in some directory structure to get the same effect?

        with lr-flycast, I was able to do like the playstation emulator and use chdman to convert the gdi images to chd, rename the .chd extension to .cd1, .cd2, etc, and make a m3u playlist.

          Since I am also using a retroarch core instead of the standalone reicast, I confiured hotkeys for opening/closing the disc drive and swapping discs.

              could you post an m3u example?
              I'm trying but games do not start!

                @pscotto1234 m3u is a plain text file with a list of the disc images. I can give an example later, but the page for the Playstation emulator has some good examples.

                  @gokuh306 thanks; I managed to do that. Now it works ;)
