SAME_CDI is a libretro core to play CD-i games. This is a fork and modification of the MAME libretro core

SAME_CDI

SAME_CDI is a Single Arcade/Machine Emulator for libretro, forked from MAME libretro, which is a fork of MAME (it's the SAME, get it?), and compiles only the Philips CD-I driver, and then sorts out the claptrap of loading the CD file for emulating. The name removes the name MAME altogether, as thats what I gather the MAME folks want for a fork like this - MAMEs license is below.

GAME FILES

Game files can be either CHD, ISO, or BIN/CUE. Game support/functionality is whatever the MAME version included supports.

BIOS

BIOS file (cdimono1.zip) is required, and can go either in the same directory as your CHD|ISO|CUE files or in the retroarch_system_dir/same_cdi/bios/ directory
