Thread: Karaoke CDG Player Released

Music fans and wannabe American Idol contestants will rejoice over this next piece of news. The same developer who brought us the Amiga emulator (E-UAE ps3) for the PS3, has now released a new project he's been working on. The project is known as the CDG Player, and it allows for CDG discs to be played on the PS3 console. The project was developed using the legal PSL1GHT SDK and is open source.Most of you probably won't recognize what CDG discs are, but if you've ever sang karaoke you've most likely used one. CDG, which is also known as CD+G, stands for compact disc plus graphics and is the industry wide standard for karaoke discs. The specially crafted discs allow for lyrics to be displayed on screen, while the audio is played. Now, with the help of the CDG Player, singing fans will no longer need to bare the burden of purchasing a pricey karaoke machine.

CDG Player is a simple program for PS3 that plays mp3 files and displays
graphics stored in cdg files. The format is used in many karaoke disks.

Program was compiled by using psl1ght sdk ver. 1

Features:
- simple file selector
- mp3 and cdg playback

Requires:
- ps3 ready to run homebrew programs
