Both ps2dev9 and ps2atad are very close to SCE's modules. ps2dev9 differs from dev9 in some functions: dma transfer (sema vs polling), initialization (ps2dev9...

Can somebody explain advantages of data streaming from disc if there are any? I noticed some functions like cdStRead in libcdvd.h but I don't know what they are for. It seems there was no discussion of such features or at least I failed to find it (no topics or code examples). Btw, what's difference...

According ps2lib it is s32 AddIntcHandler(s32 cause, s32(*handler_func)(s32 cause), s32 next); However I don't know meaning of "next" arg. Btw here is my suggestions about INTC. 0 - GS 1 - SBUS 2 - vblank start 3 - vblank end 4 - VIF0 5 - VIF1 6 - VU0 7 - VU1 8 - IPU 9&10 - some timers

Questions about thread priority on PS2. Is there nearly complete information about "initial_priority"? First of all I want to know, how I should choose a priority value for my threads. Since there are many priority levels I am slightly confused. And is there any difference between priority...
