Does it support XA audio. I didn't find anything in the Doxygen Documentation. If yes, is there any example or can you say which functions I have to use.
Also unrelated question: is there any way to convert MIDIs to .mod?
PSXSDK question?

I doubt there is XA/streaming support in PSXSDK at all. You're better off using the PsyQ SDK if you want to take full advantage of the PSX.
Please don't forget to include my name if you share my work around. Credit where it is due.

I know, but I find the PSYQ documentation very difficult, since it doesn't seem to be very informative (it assumes you know everything about PS hardware). Anyway, I found some function called CdPlayTrack(..), which seems to be the one I was looking for.LameGuy64 wrote:I doubt there is XA/streaming support in PSXSDK at all.

Psy-Q has the utmost best documentation of any SDK. CdPlayTrack sounds like CDDA based audio which is fine and all, but there is no 4:1 compression scheme and there are some other drawbacks too when using it over XA.NaughtyCow wrote:I know, but I find the PSYQ documentation very difficult, since it doesn't seem to be very informative (it assumes you know everything about PS hardware).

Hi NaughtyCow,
Choose whatever SDK you like the most. I am fond of open-source software, so I'm like PSXSDK all the way. In fact,I was looking exactly for the same thing on PSXSDK a few weeks ago. Only CDDA is supported AFAIK by calling CdPlayTrack(), but did not get any good results. IIRC, some CD control registers were not initialised properly here and there, but I couldn't get it working anyway. The only thing I got playing was an unknown, synth-like sound which didn't come from any of the music I pretended to use.
It'd be great if we could share source code and see what we can achieve.

You can convert your MIDI files to MOD with OpenMPT.NaughtyCow wrote: ↑June 8th, 2016, 2:16 am Also unrelated question: is there any way to convert MIDIs to .mod?
