        It's one of my all time favorites.

        I discovered it by accident. Had never heard of it before. Back when I was a teen and funcoland still existed, they were liquidating their Sega cd stock dirt cheap. I picked up the model 2 cheap and a bunch of games for a dollar each, all complete. Snatcher and popful mail were in that pile. Best decision I ever made. Snatcher and Chrono trigger are two games I'd give just about anything to play again for the very first time, nothing like it.

          Does this work with an MP3 cue sheet as well?

          E.g.:

          FILE "Sonic CD.iso" BINARY
          TRACK 01 MODE1/2352
          INDEX 01 00:00:00
          FILE "Sonic CD 02.mp3" MP3
          TRACK 02 AUDIO
          INDEX 01 00:00:00
          FILE "Sonic CD 03.mp3" MP3
          TRACK 03 AUDIO
          INDEX 01 00:00:00

            I don't believe so. Here are some people discussing it on the libretro forums:

              @mediamogul Thanks, i'll try converting to wav format and re-building the cue.

              Edit:

              That worked!

                @mediamogul Sorry to come back to such an old topic but I'm having trouble getting this particular trick (putting platforms.cfg in configs/all) to work. I've put a text file with that name in that directory, with that line in it, but I'm still seeing two files for every game (one for the .iso, and one for the .cue). Am I missing a step?

                  What text editor did you use to create the file?

                    @brandonshire Nevermind! A little more searching found me what I needed! (I followed the proceedure in this thread: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2190/hide-iso-files-when-you-scraped-cue-files/6 that is to say I copied the file from the original directory rather than just creating a new one, and I updated the emulator and updated the setup script and that seemed to fix it!)

                      @mediamogul I can't seem to get this same trick to work with my game (Shining Force CD) I believe I'm doing it right, I use notepad++ and replace each "WAVE" with "BINARY" except the top most line which is the iso line of text. when I launch the game using the .cue it brings me to a "CD player interface" which for the first 24 songs plays nothing but static, then from track 25 to 30 it plays the songs correctly, but won't launch into the game. If I launch using the .iso it plays normally with sound effects but no music. any clarification would be appreciated.

                        @druval You can always convert to a single chd file and also save space. Try it with a iso\bin\cue you didn't touch:p
