    Default Run ePSXe2.0 on Sony smart tv

    Thanks for the add.....

    Can someone please give me detailed instructions (a link to a video would be great) on how to get ePSXe and a N64 emulator to run on my sony tv. Ive installed ePSXe2.0 and a few N64 SNES emulators to the tv via the playstore. I think ive downloaded the relevant "stuff" and some games to a usb stick. I just cant bring it all together and make it work. Ive seen a video on youtube of a guy running it on his tv but theres no instructions so ive followed several different methods of people installing it on android devices and now im totally lost. Thanks in advance

    Roms are Read Only Memory chips (Rom files are dumps of those chips) for games those are dumps from cartridges
    Bios is in basic terms is a simple operating system, the Bios is also stored in a rom chip inside the PSX so is also a rom
    Playstaion plays CD games not cartridge games, so there are not roms
    CD dumps are CD images best stored in mixed mode format files like bin+cue or img+ccd, they are sometimes refuted to as ISO files but *.iso format is not a mixed mode so best to avoid that file format

    Plugins I assume ePSXe andoid ports would have those included

    Get the bios now and make sure ePSXe looks for the correct file

    Thanks for the advice mate.
    TBH i think im totally out my depth. I dont really know where to start. ive got the espxe app on the tv and downloaded what i think i need on to a USB stick but as far as moving folders about and making sure the right things are in the right folders and making sure the tv knows where to look for it, I'm totally lost. I really need a step by step video on youtube that covers seting it up on the tv and not an android tablet or tv box.

    or better yet someone on here to give me a step by step walk through HINT HINT

    What file/s do you have for the game/s?

    It is very possible that you have
    an archive file (zip or rar) that will need to be extracted first before you can use it (7-zip via a PC is the best way to do that)
    if once extracted you have an ecm file or ecm & ape files those will need to be converted correctly via a PC first before they are usable (ECM & APE guide)

    What you want are Bin+Cue or Img+Ccd files

    As far as setting up files and folders, it's the ePSXe options you want be looking at not your TV's setup

    It shouldn't be too much different to a tablet or phone. I'm guessing you don't have a touchscreen or SD card slot though, those are the only things I can think of that would be different.
