Thanks for your answer vettacossx but where did you get that information from?
Craziest thing...I READ... LOL and with the releases comes instructions if you got it from Hackmii teh ole source back when mplayerDVD was released...
that's where you can read the simple instructions that state
"If you do not have a mod chip then just preform the Normal install, ADVANCED is for those who own a mod chip"
Also most of my friends DONT READ...LOL...So i have to install there mods and they ALL use a DVD-R for loading emulator Rom files
IF you are installing to play roms from a dvd-r then keep in mind these things to save your discs
VBA GX and GENESIS GX
do NOT support zipped rom files from a DVD-r (dvdx required)
FCE GX(NES EMU) and SNES9x GX
DO SUPPORT ZIPPED ROMS....
Make sure your disc is in ISO9660 for best results and to be sure this is the case use the free burning app called
IMGBURN (just google it bro same dude who made DVDdecrypter that was so useful with DVDshrink to create backups back in the day)
open IMGburn and choose
write files/folders to disc
Next At this screen
drag and drop your roms into the big empty square window and when your ready click burn and it will make a dvd-r that is compatable with the new GUI based emulators
Of course then the other benifit:
DVD
DATA DISCS! use the SAME METHOD AS ABOVE but with MEDIA that Mplayer supports
QUOTEFormats Supported:
MPEG/VOB, AVI, Ogg/OGM, VIVO, ASF/WMA/WMV, QT/MOV/MP4, RealMedia, Matroska (mkv) popular for blu-ray rips, NUT, NuppelVideo, FLI, YUV4MPEG, FILM, RoQ, PVA files, supported by many native, XAnim, and Win32 DLL codecs. You can watch VideoCD, SVCD, DVD, 3ivx, DivX 3/4/5, WMV and even H.264 movies.
