ePSXe can read from CD and run many types of CD images directly from the user's hard drive.
With few exceptions, it is capable of nearly flawlessly emulating many PlayStation games.
Games that do not necessarily run properly or even start at all, can still be fixed and played via
the use of ePSXe patch files in .ppf format. On the latest version of ePSXe (and possibly some
older versions), there is a patching feature that allows the user to patch certain games. Not all
games prone to bugs have ppf patches written for them.

ePSXe 1.6.0
Unlike a few alternative Playstation emulators that are able to use high level emulation to mimic
the effect of the PlayStation's BIOS, ePSXe functions with an image of an official Sony
Playstation BIOS. Since the various Playstation BIOS images are Sony's intellectual property, it
is illegal to distribute them. For this reason, ePSXe does not come bundled with any of the
Playstation BIOS images, requiring the user to provide one for the emulator.

ADDENDUM IMPORTANTE:
Se volete portare i vostri cd della PlayStation, come immagine digitale cosi’ da poter essere
usata negli emulatori, avete piu’ possibilita’:
a>Usare un programma come AcetoneISo 2.3.0
http://mib.pianetalinux.org/mib/it/component/content/article/32-mib-rpms/227-acetoneiso2-203.
html
b>Usare la conversione ISO presente nello stesso emulatore.
c>Oppure aprire una Konsole e:
cdrdao scanbus
(legge i valori dei device ottici: es. ATA:1,1,0, prendetene nota ed usate cosi’ esclusivamente il
vostro ID, e non quello dell’esempio 1,1,0)
cdrdao read-cd --device ATA:1,1,0 --driver generic-mmc-raw --read-raw -v 2 --datafile
/home/$user/psx-games/nomegioco.bin /home/$user/psx-games/nomegioco.toc

ePSXe 1.6.0
Legge l’immagine binaria del cd e la suddivide in 2 file, uno descrittivo (.toc) ed uno con il
contenuto binario grezzo (.bin):all’emulatore interessa solo il file .bin
Il file .toc pero’ potrebbe anche esservi utile, se poi volete farvi un backup di sicurezza del
Vostro CD:
per scrivere una immagine Psx su Cd, da konsole
cdrdao write --device ATA:1,1,0 --driver generic-mmc-raw --speed 8 --overburn --eject
/home/$user/psx-games/nomegioco.toc
Naturalmente, anche se cio’ dovrebbe essere ovvio, sostituite $user con il nome del vostro
utente, e /psx-games/, con il nome della vostra cartella di destinazione per i giochi.
