Hi, I'm trying to play PC Engine CD-ROM games in .CHD file format. I have the latest RetroRoarch (1.7.5) and Beetle PCE Fast core installed on my Wii and I can play bin/cue image games fine with no issues, but with .CHD (compressed) images the game plays OK but CD audio doesn't work and makes some awful noise instead. I was just wondering if this is to be expected in the Wii, as in general .CHD files should be supported fine by the PCE Fast core in RetroArch.
Thanks

Hi, sorry for necrobumping this thread but maybe I found a solution for that. Try using RA-HEXAECO (a mod of RetroArch Wii by @SuperrSonic, I recommend using the core beetle_pce_fast.dol instead of the WiiMednafen one.

Here's the link provided from @SuperrSonic:

Let me know if this works.
