with some games you wont get sound or may stop at the title screen. you need to use daemon tools lite to mount and convert using image burn to create a 2 files then use cue2cu2 after that you will get sound like in destruction derby and get rayman to run
Dude what a beautiful Sony tv, I love it. Thanks for this video, i got an xstation, but a friend kept telling me that a chinese psio is the same and better, and I was curious about how did it worked.
Thank you, im also glad that i bought it for just 15usd from an old lady who hardly watched anything on it. The thing has barely any watch time. I don't know if its exactly better: you can't use official updates from the devs, but theres a Russian site where you can download unofficial FW updates from.
Looking into restoring my uncles launch psx, and looking into SD card readers, xstation is cool but I want to retain original functionality, can you still run the optical drive if the psio installed?
It's actually a little bit faster than CD-Rom, because although the transfer speed is the same as CD-rom, there are no seek times with ODEs. There are videos on youtube comparing Spyro loading times from disc and PSIO, and the PSIO wins by a few seconds. ua-cam.com/video/qvmvddBe_LM/v-deo.html
I’ve bought an original PSIO from the true creator (CYBERDYNE) of this product, not a cheap Chinese clone, since I support every creator of mods out there. It was rather unsettling that I had to pay double the price. But at least I can update the firmware 👍🏻
O yea, to each it's own. Original psio gets you official FW updates, but the community made that Russian FW available which solves most of the problems (some games not working)
Yeah. TBH, I always support the original creators/modders of new tech, since it’s their IP in the first place. That’s the best thing to do, really. Not just buying cheap Chinese clones and then rant about how things don’t work (not pointing my finger at you, just so you know 👍🏻). If the creator is an @$$, well, then you are out of luck, I presume.
Not directly. And you should not update it. It will brick the psio. Theres unofficial Russian FW out there which i said in the video that seems to work fine.
I'm pleased as punch the firmware update at long last finally came out...but for whatever reason the second disc (well the iso/rom or whatever or it) of Lunar Silver Star still won't work and I tried a few different ones...what am I doing wrong?
And you got that info from where exactly? There is no plug and play option for the PS1 console. Xstation needs you to solder as well and you lose your optical drive. Theres the matter of having the correct firmware and the correct ISO files to get the game running. I have 207 games on here and only a handful don't work.
I think you misunderstood me? I'm thanking YOU for the "information"... Because of YOU I found out that I have to solder wires and all that stuff if I wanted to get one. You understand?? And you also said that some games doesn't respond to any input. You were very helpful with the "info" . Thanks to you I'm not going to bother chasing the PSIO.
Not all PS1 consoles are compatible with the Xstation. Plus the mod requires lifting very tiny chip pins and you lose your optical drive. I have installed both mods in the past. PSIO is much easier to install.
@@yanghao8351yes this is what I’m looking into, I want to keep the the drive working and hopefully plug into the port on the rear an SD reader, any suggestions?
It's not compatible with more powerful revisions like SCPH-7502. I have this one and I can't install Xstation. So no, xstation is not necessarily better.
great video, i always thought psio was plug n play , very glad i know better meow
Sadly, not. Theres a plug and play option announced, but that was years ago, from the creator of Xstation. You can find the video on X somewhere.

Nice bro, thanks for the added info!
dude, just google psio helper.

Thanks for the info. I checked it with a few games and I found it to be neck to neck with speed.
Where did you buy this clone from? I can only find the official one and its really expensive
It's there on Aliexpress. Just type in PSIO, it'll pop up.
@@fistbumpbros 88 bucks, that's much better, might get it one day

Do you get firmware updates with this clone?
Not directly. And you should not update it. It will brick the psio. Theres unofficial Russian FW out there which i said in the video that seems to work fine.
@ I'm on the official PSIO, I was mostly just curious.
After this video, I bought myself a clone. Result: only 30% of the games I try work :-(
Ah ok that's a bummer. Most of the 80+ games that i have work.
I'm pleased as punch the firmware update at long last finally came out...but for whatever reason the second disc (well the iso/rom or whatever or it) of Lunar Silver Star still won't work and I tried a few different ones...what am I doing wrong?
It could be that the second ISO might not be working correct.
new firmware just came out
Noice, you tell it like some rapper dropped a new track 👏
PSIO>XSTATION
K bro
PSIO gets too much hate
Xstation hate crime bro.
Is it really worth it though? I mean, half the time it doesn't even work... Yeah nah I need something that's plug and play. Thanks for the info.

Xstation is better.
Ok cool man let me get that tattoo'ed
