Xebra: PSX emulator
 

Hi there,

I have a strange request. Someone with a PSX bios file and a Playstation ISO / disc (AND a Windows OS) could get the PSX emulator Xebra
NYO$B%C%H$d$m$&$<(J (download link at the bottom of the page)
and test with the OpenGL stretching mode (enable in the graphics options).

I'm currently trying to get this HW-accelerated stretching mode to work with wine, but I don't get any visuals after activating it. Because I have no windows OS on this system I can't compare results when the application is executed in a native environment. Maybe it even fails there, who knows?

So someone with a bit of free time could probably do a quick check what happens on Windows if this stretching mode is activated.

And no, I'm not the author. I just want to file a bugreport on the wine bugtracker so the guys can fix it. But without knowing how the expected results should look like I can't do a thing.

Thanks,
liquid

why using Xebra,epsxe 1.60 best emulator for ps1.I uploaded it before.

No, ePSXe is surely not the best PSX emulator. And certainly not version 1.6.0
i) ePSXe 1.6.0 is old (very old, around 4 years) - talk about bitrot
ii) it's unmaintained (mainly because of (i))
iii) it's PSEmuPro plugin-system based, which is certainly flawed (async CD-rom access for example)
iv) it's not open-source (that's a problem especially on linux since gtk+ version 1 is slowly dying and the only available binary has a lot of gtk+ bindings)
v) the source was lost
vi) the version step from 1.5.2 to 1.6.0 broke a lot of compatibility, this would have been fixed but... (see (v))

OK, that's already far off-topic. I wasn't going to discuss the role of ePSXe for the PSX emulation scene. What I want to do is get Xebra to work with wine AND use OpenGL stretching.
My primary motivation is not to emulate games (I could get a real PSX for that, these are very cheap on ebay) but to get this software working. For me it's more a technical aspect, as I'm especially interested in emulation techniques and implementations.

Coming back to ePSXe. I know how to setup this emulator. So please, no further discussion about it.
