[Feature Request] ROM Properties + GetMD5

Open 10522 opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

GetMD5 shows very useful information for PS2 and PS1 images. Can it be combined with ROM Properties?

Here is a screenshot of GetMD5:

Some of this is out of scope for rom-properties (e.g. the MD5sum), but a few of those fields (version, region, Sony logo) might be doable. Not sure about the lock sector, though. (I'm unfamiliar with what this is; I'm guessing it has something to do with the PS1/PS2 copy-protection?)

@GerbilSoft, here is a full explanation of each line in GetMD5 in English (translated using Google Translate).

Seems like it's their name for the UDF "Anchor Volume Descriptor" which commonly has a copy located at the last LBA
