Can you make a tool that will rip my PSX cds onto my XBox?
PSX cds are completely different beasts than PCE CDs and SegaCDs. PSX cds are written with Mode2 XA sectors whereas the others are not. I have tried many different ways to read Mode2 XA sectors and the closest I got was getting the XBox to actually read the sectors, but at only 2.5KB per second. Considering that this is about 50x slower than a 1x CDROM drive, I think it’s pretty obvious that gaming performance would be extremely poor. Please note that Mode2 XA is different than Mode2 Yellowbook (which is what VCDs are written with) – so XBMP’s code is not a solution.

Obviously there is a solution to the problem, but the specifics are elusive. I cannot answer “when” it will be solved because if I had enough information to tell you “when”, then it would be finished by now already. Furthermore, if I could write a tool th
