chdman createcd -i "Game.cue" -o "/path/to/ExternalSD/Game.chd" Do not compress PSP ( .iso to .cso ) or Nintendo DS ( .nds ) files with CHDMAN. Those use different algorithms. Stick to PS1, Saturn, Dreamcast, Sega CD, PCE CD, and MAME Hard Drive images. Final Verdict: Is it worth it on Android? Yes.
