# psxrip.sh
Bash script to backup Playstation (PSX) games in Linux
Script for ripping PSX game discs into .bin files with corresponding .cue files.
> Usage:
> psxrip.sh [{--outputdir} ] [{--drive} ] [{--disable-subchan] [{--help|-h}] [--enable-fast-rip] [--use-raw-driver] FILENAME
>
> The parameter FILENAME is mandatory. Without it, the script will abort. Plain
spaces in the filename are prohibited!
>
>Available switches:
> --drive Define the device to be used. If this parameter is not
> provided, /dev/cdrom will be used.
>
> --help / -h Displays this help text.
>
> --disable-subchan Don't extract subchannel data. Subchannel data might be
> required for some PSX copy protection though it *could* create
> problems. Retry with this parameter set if any problems occur
> when trying to use the resulting image.
>
> --outputdir Define the folder in which the resulting image should be saved.
> If the folder does not exist, it will be created. If no
> --outputdir parameter is given, the folder ~/psxrip will be
> used.
>
> --enable-fast-rip Runs CD-ROM reader at full speed to get a faster rip but lower
> quality
> (Not Recommended)
>
> --disable-umount Disables automatic unmount of mounted DRIVE if mount is detected.
>
> --use-raw-driver Uses generic-mmc-raw instead of generic-mmc:0x20000 driver (not-recommended) Here for legacy reasons.
>
> --disable-eject Disables CD-ROM eject on a successful rip
