## Specific system information

### Multi-disc games

Use an M3U playlist file

Create a text file with the extension ".m3u" and write the filename of each disk on a new line like in the example below.

`Ys II.m3u`

```
# Ys II (Falcom)
Ys II (Program disk).d88
Ys II (Disk A).d88
Ys II (Disk B).d88
Ys II (User disk).d88
```

If you've loaded multiple disks, you can hold one of the trigger buttons and use the D-Pad to change the disk that's loaded in each drive. Use L for Drive 1 and R for Drive 2. When the shoulder button is released, the chosen disk will be inserted.
