I can't append disk image on my retroarch menu.
-
Pi Model or other hardware: Raspberry 3 B
Power Supply used: 2.5A
RetroPie Version Used : 4.2
Built From: Pre made SD Image on RetroPie website
USB Devices connected: N/A
Controller used: pc game usb controller
Emulator: PCSX-rearmed r22when I need to change the disk on psx1 multi-disk games (like metal gear solid) I open retroarch ->
quick menu -> disk control -> disk image append and goto the folder home/pi/retropie/roms/psx
but I can't see any files in there. I know that disk image files are there.
for the test , I compressed disk image file to .zip file then the file shows up on the list but doesn't work.
Does anybody have same issue? -
What disc format are your games in?
-
@mediamogul I tested with .cue/.bin , .iso , .ccd/.img . but none of them were displayed .

They should be showing up, but it could be RetroArch now requires you to scan the files first.
As an alternative approach, you may want to try:
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Playstation-1#m3u-playlist-for-multi-disc-games
or
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Playstation-1#eboot-format-pbp-for-multi-disc-gamesEither of those negate the need to append discs at all. All you would need to do is eject and switch through the GUI.
