[RPi4] Swap disks using pcsx-rearmed

ojio-san · March 6, 2026 at 11:00 AM

Hello there,

I started using the addon Sony - PlayStation (PCSX ReARMed), and it's working perfectly

Then, I started playing Metal Gear Solid but when the 'insert disc 2' screen appeared : I did not see how to use disc 2.

Since the workflow is oriented towards opening the game ROM/file and then selecting the emulator we want to run it with : I don't know how to do it without leaving the emulator.

I tried making a quick-save at the end of disc 1, exiting, starting disc 2 and loading the quick-save : it did not work.

How should we do it ? Thank you !

Yes, Changing disks is done via libretro through the "disk control interface". Unfortunately it hasn't been implemented in Kodi yet. Mostly because I haven't gotten through any entire discs yet You can see the missing implementation here: https://github.com/kodi-game/game…onment.cpp#L209

This is probably an easy feature to implement. I'll need an MGS savestate or SRAM save. Let's move feature development to your issue at https://github.com/kodi-game/game…armed/issues/28, where we can upload saves.

I have replied on github with the save states and the memcard file; i'm looking forward this feature !

Thank you for your hard work on this project
