    If the resulting ISO is for a PS1 game, ensure the file extension is correct. Sometimes PSX2PSP outputs a .BIN file along with a .CUE file. This is essentially the same as an ISO for emulation purposes. Load the .CUE file in your emulator, not the .BIN file, to ensure music and correct loading. Select Output Format:

    | Problem | Likely Solution | |--------|----------------| | "Not a valid PBP file" | Your PBP might be a PSP game or firmware. PSX2PSP only works with PS1 PBP files. | | Output file is 0KB | The PBP is encrypted differently (e.g., from a newer PSN release). Try PBP Unpacker or PopStation GUI. | | Game has no audio after conversion | You used ISO instead of BIN/CUE. Convert again using BIN output. | | Emulator won't load the ISO | Rename the file to end in .bin and load the .cue file instead. |

    | Feature | PBP | ISO | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | File Size | Small (compressed) | Large (uncompressed) | | Emulator Support | PSP, PPSSPP, Mobile PS1 | All PS1 emulators (DuckStation, ePSXe, RetroArch) | | Multi-disc | Yes (single file) | No (one file per disc) | | Burnable to CD | No | Yes | | Editable | Difficult | Easy (mount with daemon tools) |

    Verdict: Keep PBP for PSP or mobile gaming. Convert to ISO for PC emulation or burning.
