Unable to load .cue file with Beetle PSX?

  • Hi,

    I'm trying to load a .cue+.bin file but without luck. If I have a ccd+img+sub, it works well, but with .cue, it doesn't, even though Beetle PSX indicates being able to read them.

    Looking at the logs, here's what I have :

    Code
    2020-01-27 23:38:38.786 T:2409792368   ERROR: Open - error probing input format, /storage/games/PS/Final Fantasy VII/Final Fantasy VII (Disc 1).cue

    2020-01-27 23:38:38.788 T:2409792368 WARNING: PAPlayer::QueueNextFileEx - Failed to create the decoder

    I have another game I can successfully launch with ccd so there is no issues with bios or Beetle PSX being wrongly installed. I suspect some issue in the mapping cue => BeetlePSX.

    What can I do?

    Thank you for your help!

  • Any idea that could put me on the right direction?

    How does Kodi adds a mapping between a file extension and an app? I suspect the .cue isn't added properly on Beetle PSX.

    I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling it, without any luck.

    Thanks!

  • For information, this was because bin and cue files are by default mapped with videos and music extensions, which is what is loaded and thus fails.

    In order to remove this mapping, you need to add this to your advancedsettings.xml :

    And then you will be able to load cue/bin files via PSX ReARMed :)
